Suppose that the current three-year rate (three-year spot rate) and expected one- year T-bill rates over the following years are as follows: 1 R3 = 12% E(271) = 8% E(371) = 10% Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current rates for one- and two-year maturity Treasury securities, i.e., 1 R₁ and 1 R2. Convert your answers to percentages. 1R1 = 17.39%; 1R2 = 12.56% O 1R1 = 20.73; 1R2 = 11.49% O 1R1 = 18.26%; 1R2 = 13.01% O 1R1 = 19.52; 1R2 = 14.74%
Consider a 1-year treasury bill that currently earns 3.25%. The increase in rates for the above bill is shown as follows: Year Increase in rate 1 year from now 3.6% 2 years from now 3.85% The liquidity premium is as follows: 2-year securities 3-year securities 0.07% 0.15% Assume that if the liquidity premium theory is correct. Calculate the current rate on 3-year Treasury securities.

We observe the following treasury yields on a particular day: one-year 1.50%, two-year 2.25%, and three year 3.25%. If two-year term premium is 0.25%, on that day what did investors expect one-year interest rate to be next year?Group of answer choices a)1.875% b)2.5% c)2.375% d)2.25%

Suppose we observe the 3-year Treasury security rate (1R3) to be 8 percent, the expected 1-year rate next year—E(2r1)—to be 4 percent, and the expected one-year rate the following year—E(3r1)—to be 6 percent. If the unbiased expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates holds, what is the 1-year Treasury security rate, 1R1? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
8. Demonstrate your understanding on Chapter 6: Expectations Theory/ Cross-Product a. One-year Treasury securities yield 3.95%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 4.4%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities? Calculate the yield using a geometric average. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. b. 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. A 6-year security with no maturity, default, or liquidity risk has a yield of 17.60%. If the real risk-free rate is 5%, what average rate of inflation is expected in this country over the next 6 years? (Hint: Refer to "The Links Between Expected Inflation and Interest Rates: A Closer Look".) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your…
