3. Calculating interest rates The real risk-free rate (r) is 2.80% and is expected to remain constant into the future. Inflation is expected to be 3.20% per year for each of the next four years and 2.00% thereafter. The maturity risk premium (MRP) is determined from the formula: 0.10 x(t-1)%, where is the security's maturity. The liquidity premium (LP) on all Tahoe Hydroponics's bonds is 0.60%. The following table shows the current relationship between bond ratings and default risk premiums...
Suppose the real risk-free rate is 3.50%, the average future inflation rate is 2.50%, a maturity premium of 0.20% per year to maturity applies, i.e., MRP = 0.20%(t), where t is the number of years to maturity. Suppose also that a liquidity premium of 0.50% and a default risk premium of 2.70% applies to A-rated corporate bonds. What is the difference in the yields on a 5-year A-rated corporate bond and on a 10-year Treasury bond? Here we assume that...
