A. The yield curve is given below.
b. We know that
yield rate at t=ert
At 5 year, the yield rate is 3.7%. t is 5. Putting this in the formula, we get
3.7%=e5r
Solving for r using ex table, we get 5r=1.3%.
c. The compounding has to be ignored, so the rate would be same as 2 year maturity, which is 2.68%.
d. yes it is possible because there are 2 factors which contribute in the upward slope of a yield curve- actual increase in the rates and the compounding effect. The upward slope might entirely be due to compounding of the yield and not an actual rise in the interest rate.

The YTMs for Treasuries with differing maturities (with each rate expressed as an annual rate) on a recent day were as shown in the following table. 3 MONTHS 1.41% 6 MONTHS 1.71% 2 YEARS 2.68% 3 YEARS 3.01% 5 YEARS 3.70% 10 YEARS 4.51% 30 YEARS 5.25% The real rate of interest is 0.8% per year. Use the information in the preceding table to calculate the approximate inflation expectation for each maturity.
