Based on expectation theory, if the interest rate for a 3-year bond is 8% and the interest rate on a 1-year bond right now is 9%, a one year bond a year from now is 9%, what is the expected one year bond interest rate 2-years from now?

EXACT:
Expected one year bond interest rate 2 years from now=(1+rate for 3
years)^3/((1+rate for 1 year)*(1+rate for 1 year 1 year from
now))-1=1.08^3/(1.09*1.09)-1=6.0274%
APPROXIMATE:
Expected one year bond interest rate 2 years from now=rate for 3
years*3-rate for 1 year-rate for 1 year 1 year from
now=8%*3-9%-9%=6%

The interest rate on a 1-year T-bond is 4.00% and that on a 2-year T-bond is 5.90%. Assuming the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the market's forecast for 1-year rates 1 year from now? From the previous Q, the interest rate on a 1-year T-bond is 4.00%, on a 2-year T-bond is 5.90%, and on a one year bond one year from now is 7.834%. What would you do if the 2 year T-bond was at 5.7% not...

12. Suppose the interest rate on a 1-year T-bond is 5.00% and that on a 2-year T-bond is 4.80%. Assume that the pure expectations theory is NOT valid, and the MRP is zero for a 1-year T-bond but 0.40% for a 2-year bond. What is the yield on a 1-year T-bond expected to be one year from now? why we subtract the MRB from interest rate 1-year T-bind ??
Suppose the interest rate on a 2-year T-bond is 6.0% and that on a 3-year T-bond is 7.0%. Assuming the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the market's forecast for 1-year rates 2 year from now? 7.36% 7.75% 8.16% 9.03% 10.03%

Based on the Pure Expectations Theory of interest rates, if the one-year rate is 4%, and the one-year rate, one year from now, is expected to be 10%, the current two-year rate should be Select one: a. 7.0 % b. 3.0% c. 6.0% d. 14.0%
Assume that the current interest rate on a one-year bond is 8 percent, the current rate on a two-year bond is 10 percent, and the current rate on a three-year bond is 12 percent. If the expectations theory of the term structure is correct, what is the one-year interest rate expected during Year 3? (Base your answer on an arithmetic average rather than a geometric average.) Group of answer choices 13% 14% 16% 12% 10%
The current market interest rate for one year maturity bond is 10%. The forward rate for a one year investment starting in one year from now is 8%. According to the expectations theory of term structure, the current two year maturity market interest rate is O 8%. larger than 10%. between 8% and 10%. O smaller than 8%.
