Suppose government economists have forecasted one-year T-bill rates for the following two years. They are as follows: Year 1-year rate 1 4.50% 2 5.00% At what annual required rate of interest, bond investors would be willing to purchase a 2-year T-bond now? 9.725% or higher. 4.75% or higher. 4.875 or lower. 9.50% or lower.
suppose the interest rate on a 3 year treasury note is 1.00% and 5 year notes are yielding 3.50% Based on the expectatiions theory, what does the market believe that 2 year treasuries will be yielding 3 years from now?
1-year Treasury-bill rates are expected to steadily increase by 1.5 percentage per year over the next 6 years. Determine the required interest rate on a 3-year Treasury -bond and a 6-year Treasury-bond if the current 1-year interest rate is 7.5%. Assume that the Pure Expectations Hypothesis for interest rates holds.
Suppose the interest rate on a one-year Treasury bill is currently 2% and investors expect that the interest rates on one-year Treasury bills over the next three years will be 3%, 5%, and 4%. The liquidity (term) premiums for one- to four-year Treasury notes are 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1.25%. Use the liquidity premium theory to calculate the current interest rate on a three-year Treasury note.
One-year T-bills yield 1.00%. Based on future rates, the market expects that one year from now, new one year t-bill will yield 2.00%. Based on the Pure Expectations Theory, what is the yield of a 2-year Treasury note?

Assume that periodic cash ows are reinvested at 12%. b.Assuming all market interest rates are 12%, what is the duration of this bond?
If inflation is anticipated to be 6 percent during the next year, while the real rate of interest for one-year loan is 5 percent, then what should the nominal rate of interest be for a risk-free one-year loan? a. 11% b. 6%c. 5%d. 12%
Suppose the interest rate on a 3-year treasury note is 2.75%, and 6-year notes are yielding 3.50%. Based on the expectations theory, what does the market believe that 3-year treasuries will be yielding 3 years from now?
You will receive $100 from a savings bond in 4 years. The nominal interest rate is 7.90 %. a) What is the present value of the proceeds from the bond? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. b) If the inflation rate over the next few years is expected to be 2.90%, what will the real value of the $100 payoff be in terms of today's dollars? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. c)What is the real interest rate? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. d)Calculate the real payoff from the bond [from part (b)] discounted at the real interest rate [ from part (c)]. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Consider a bond with a duration of 8.8 years priced at $1,100. If market interest rates were to increase by 0.25%, what would be the predicted new bond price according to duration?
You will receive $100 from a savings bond in 3 years. The nominal interest rate is 8%. a. What is the present value of the proceeds from the bond? b. If the inflation rate over the next few years is expected to be 3%, what will the real value of the $100 payoff be in terms of today's dollars? C. What is the real interest rate? d. Show that the real payoff from the bond [from part (b)] discounted at the real interest rate [from part (c)] gives the same present value for the bond as you found in part (a).
According to the expectations theory of the term structure of interest, if the 1-year bond rate today is 6.50% p.a., the 2-year bond rate today is 6.70% p.a., and the 3-year bond rate today is 7.00%, what will be the 2-year bond rate next year?
