$100 |
expected cost in the coming year=current price*(1+growth rate)
=100*1.04
which is equal to
=$104

2. EXPECTED INTEREST RATE The real risk-free rate is 3 %. Inflation is expected to be 2 % this year and 4 % during the next 2 years. Assume that the maturity risk premium is zero. What is the yield on 2-year Treasury securities? What is the yield on 3 -year Treasury securities?3. MATURITY RISK PREMIUM The real risk-free rate is 3 %, and inflation is expected to be 3 % for the next 2 years. A 2-year Treasury security...
The real risk-free rate is 2.5% and inflation is expected to be MATURITY RISK PREMIUM 2.75% for the next 2 years. A 2-year Treasury security yields 5.55%. What is the maturity risk premium for the 2-year security? 65 6-6 INFLATION CROSS-PRODUCT An analyst is evaluating securities in a developing nation where the inflation rate is very high. As a result, the analyst has been warned not to ignore the cross-product between the real rate and inflation. If the real risk-free...
The real risk-free rate is 2.55%, inflation is expected to be 2.15% this year, and the maturity risk premium is zero. Taking account of the cross-product term, i.e., not ignoring it, what is the equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond? What would it be if the approximation method is used? Show work and 4 decimals.
The real risk-free rate is 3%. inflation is expected to be 2% this year and 4% during the next 2 years. Assume the maturity risk premium is zero. a) what is the yield on 2 year Treasury securities? b) what is the yield on 3 year Treasury securities?
Suppose the inflation rate in Canada is 2% and is expected to remain 2% for the upcoming year. Bank deposits pay 3% annual interest rate in Canada. Suppose you deposit $100 at a bank. a. In nominal terms, your savings will grow to _$ next year. b. Due to inflation, the real value of your savings account next year is c. What is the real rate of return on your savings?

Due to a recession, expected inflation this year is only 2.75%. However, the inflation rate in Year 2 and thereafter is expected to be constant at some level above 2.75%. Assume that the expectations theory holds and the real risk-free rate (r*) is 2.5%. If the yield on 3-year Treasury bonds equals the 1-year yield plus 0.5%, what inflation rate is expected after Year 1? Round your answer to two decimal places.
