We observe the following rates. The current one-year Treasury rate is 5.28% and the two-year rate is 7.37%. We believe the one year rate one year from today (E(1r2)) is 6.34%. What is the liquidity premium for year 2 (from t=1 to t=2). Enter in percent form without the percent sign.
The question can be answered from the concept of Term Structure of Interest Rates.
Current 1 Year Treasury Rate = 5.28%
Current 2 Year Treasury Rate = 7.37%
Hence, based on the term structure of interest rate as given below:
(1 + 5.28%) * (1+ F(1r2)) = (1 + 7.37%)^2
1 Year treasurey rate 1 Year from now = F(1r2) = [ (1+7.37%)^2 / (1+5.28%) ] - 1
F(1r2) = 1.15283 / 1.0528 - 1
F(1r2) = 9.501%
The liquidity risk premium for year 2 is the difference between the above derived rate less the expected rate.
Liquidity Risk Premium = F(1r2) - E(1r2)
E(1r2) = 6.34% ... given
F(1r2) = 9.50% ... Calculated above
Liquidity Risk Premium = 9.50% - 6.34%
Liquidity Risk Premium = 3.16% .... Answer

The current one-year Treasury rate is 5.92% and the two-year rate is 4.89%. Furthermore, you believe there is a liquidity premium for t=1 to t=2 of 0.3%. What is the one-year rate expected one year from today (E(1r2)). Enter in percent form without the percent sign.
The current one-year Treasury rate is 4.07% and the two-year rate is 5.07%. Assume expectations theory. What is the one-year rate expected one year from today (E(1r2)). Enter in percent form without the percent sign.
The current one-year Treasury rate is 5.23%, the two-year rate is 5.63%, and the three year rate is 4.84%. Assume expectations theory. What is the one-year rate expected two years from today (E(2r3)). Enter in percent form without the percent sign.
Suppose we observe the following rates: 1r1= 0.10 , 1r2= 0.14 E(2R1)= 0.10. If the liquidity premium theory of the term structure of interest rates holds. What is the liquidity premium for year.
Assume the current interest rate on a one-year Treasury bond (1R1) is 2.17 percent, the current rate on a two-year Treasury bond (1R2) is 2.33 percent, and the current rate on a three-year Treasury bond (1R3) is 2.44 percent. If the unbiased expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates is correct, what is the one-year interest rate expected on T-bills during year 3 (E(3r1) or 3f1)?
Suppose we observe the following rates: 1R1 = 6.8%, 1R2 = 7.8%, and E(2r1) = 6.8%. If the liquidity premium theory of the term structure of interest rates holds, what is the liquidity premium for year 2? (Round your intermediate calculations to 5 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16)) what is the liquidity premium ?
Suppose we observe the following rates: 1R1 = 10%, 1R2 = 14%, and E(2r1) = 18%. If the liquidity premium theory of the term structure of interest rates holds, what is the liquidity premium for year 2? (Round your intermediate calculations to 5 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places. (e.g., 32.161))
One-year Treasury bills currently earn 2.80 percent. You expect that one year from now, 1-year Treasury bill rates will increase to 3.00 percent and that two years from now, 1-year Treasury bill rates will increase to 3.50 percent. The liquidity premium on 2-year securities is 0.10 percent and on 3-year securities is 0.20 percent. If the liquidity premium theory is correct, what should the current rate be on 3-year Treasury securities? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to...
One-year Treasury bills currently earn 3.25 percent. You expect that one year from now, 1-year Treasury bill rates will increase to 3.45 percent and that two years from now, 1-year Treasury bill rates will increase to 3.95 percent. The liquidity premium on 2-year securities is 0.10 percent and on 3-year securities is 0.20 percent.
