The real risk-free rate (r) is 2.8% and is expected to remain constant. Inflation is expected to be 4% per year for each of the next two years and 3% thereafter. The maturity risk premium (MRP) is determined from the formula: 0.1(t1)%, where t is the security's maturity. The liquidity premium (LP) on all Smith and Carter Inc.'s bonds is 0.55%.
