6-3 6-4 6-5 6-6 6-7 EXPECTED INTEREST RATE The real risk-free rate is 3%. Inflation is expected to be 2% this year and 4% during the next 2 years. Assume that the maturity risk premium is zero. What is the yield on 2-year Treasury securities? What is the yield on 3-year Treasury securities? DEFAULT RISK PREMIUM A Treasury bond that matures in 10 years has a yield of 6%. A 10-year corporate bond has a yield of 8%. Assume that the liquidity premium on the corporate bond is 0.5%. What is the default risk premium on the corporate bond? MATURITY RISK PREMIUM The real risk-free rate is 3%, and inflation is expected to be 3% for the next 2 years. A 2-year Treasury security yields 6.2%. What is the maturity risk premium for the 2-year security? INFLATION CROSS-PRODUCT An analyst is evaluating securities in a developing nation where the inflation rate is very high. As a result, the analyst has been warned not to ignore the cross product between the real rate and inflation. If the real risk-free rate is 5% and inflation is expected to be 16% each of the next 4 years, what is the yield on a 4-year security with no maturity, default, or liquidity risk? (Hint: Refer to "The Links Between Expected Inflation and Interest Rates: A Closer Look" on page 201.) EXPECTATIONS THEORY One-year Treasury securities yield 5%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 6%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities? Calculate the yield using a geometric average. EXPECTATIONS THEORY Interest rates on 4-year Treasury securities are currently 7%, while 6-year Treasury securities yield 7.5%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what does the market believe that 2-year securities will be yielding 4 years from now? Calculate the yield using a geometric average. EXPECTED INTEREST RATE The real risk-free rate is 3%. Inflation is expected to be 3% this year, 4% next year, and 3.5% thereafter. The maturity risk premium is estimated to be 0.05 (t-1)%, where t = number of years to maturity. What is the yield on a a 7-year Treasury note? INFLATION Due to a recession, expected inflation this year is only 3%. However, the inflation rate in Year 2 and thereafter is expected to be constant at some level above 3% Assume that the expectations theory holds and the real risk-free rate (r") is 2%. If the yield on 3-year Treasury bonds equals the 1-year yield plus 2%, what inflation rate is expected after Year 12 DEFAULT RISK PREMIUM A company's 5-year bonds are yielding 7.75% per year. Trea sury bonds with the same maturity are yielding 5.2% per year, and the real risk-free rate (r"? is 2.3%. The average inflation premium is 2.5%; and the maturity risk premium is estimated to be 0.1 x (t-1)%, where t = number of years to maturity. If the liquidity premium is 1%, what is the default risk premium on the corporate bonds? ate 6-8 6-9 6-10 6-11 to be 59
