1. Assuming the expectations theory is the correct theory of the term structure, calculate the interest rates in the term structure for maturities of one to four years, and plot the resulting yield curves for the following paths of one-year interest rates over the next four years: a. 5%, 7%, 12%, 12% b. 5%, 4%, 3%, 4%, 2. If a yield curve looks like the one shown in the figure below, what is the market predicting about the movement of future short-term interest rates? What might the yield curve indicate about the market's predictions for the inflation rate in the future? Yield to Maturity Term to Maturity 3. Which should have the higher risk premium on its interest rates, a corporate bond with a Moody's Baa rating or a corporate bond with a C rating? Why
