On the following graph, use the blue points (cirde symbol) to plot the yield curve implied by these interest rates. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically. 10 8 Yield Curve INTEREST RATE (Percent) 2 1 10 15 MATURITY (Years) The graph's yield curve represents yield curve Based on the yield curve shown, which of the following statements is true? O A market with a yield curve as shown on the graph has higher rates on debt securities that mature within 10 to 30 years than those with maturities of less than 1 to 5 years. Interest rates on medium-term maturities are higher than rates on long and short-term maturities. Assume a scenario in which there is no maturity risk premium (MRP - 0), the real risk-free rate is expected to remain constant, and the yield curve for U.S. Treasury securities is likely to be upward sloping for the next 10 years. Is inflation expected to increase, decrease, or stay the same over the next 10 years? O Decrease Stay the same Increase On the following graph, use the blue points (cirde symbol) to plot the yield curve implied by these interest rates.
