The real risk-free rate (r*) is 2.8% and is expected to remain constant. Inflation is expected to be 4% per year for each of the next four years and 3% thereafter. The maturity risk premium (MRP) is determined from the formula: 0.1(t-1)%, where is the security's maturity. The liquidity premium (LP) on all Berth Construction Inc.'s bonds is 1.05%. The following table shows the current relationship between bond ratings and default risk premiums (DRP): Berth Construction Inc. Issues 13-year, AA-rated bonds. What...
Suppose 2-year Treasury bonds yield 4.9%, while 1-year bonds yield 2.8%. r* is 1.75%, and the maturity risk premium is zero. Use minus sign for any negative expected inflation rate. Using the expectations theory, what is the yield on a 1-year bond 1 year from now? Calculate the yield using a geometric average. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. b. What is the expected inflation rate in Year 1? Do not round intermediate calculations....
5. Suppose you buy a Baa rated corporate bond today for $1,000 with a maturity of ten years and a yield to maturity of 7%, and sell it one year from now for $1,150. Which of the following is (are) true? A. Your holding period return will be less than the yield to maturity B. Your holding period return will be equal to the yield to maturity C. Your holding period return will be greater than the yield to maturity...
Suppose 1-year Treasury bonds yield 2.20% while 2-year T-bonds yield 3.75%. Assuming the pure expectations theory is correct, and thus the maturity risk premium for T-bonds is zero, what is the yield on a 1-year T-bond expected to be one year from now? Round the intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places 5.32% 4.73% 5.25% 4.38% 5.95%
Suppose in a country the 1-year Treasury bonds yield 2.00%, while 2-year T-bonds yield 3.10%. Assuming the pure expectations theory is correct, and thus the maturity risk premium for T-bonds is zero, what is the yield on a 1-year T-bond expected to be one year from now? Please, round the intermediate calculations to 5 decimal places, and the final answer to 2 decimal places. Show work.
