Imagine that, during a job interview, you are handed the following quotes on U.S. Treasuries: Bond Maturity Coupon rate Yield to (years) maturity 1 1 5% 4.5% 2 2 5% 5.0% 3 3 0% 5.0% Assume that the par value is $100 and coupons are paid annually, with the first coupon payment coming in exactly one year from now. The yield to maturity is also quoted as an annual rate. What should be the 1-year forward rate between years 2 and 3? a. 6.482% ○ a. O b. 6.137% c. 6.507% O d. 6.736% NAVA

Suppose that the constant and perpetual cash flow is $1,000 and the discount rate is 10%. What is the value of this perpetuity?   5-year bond with a coupon rate of 4% has a face value of $1000.  What is the annual interest payment?

The real risk-free rate is 2.75%. Inflation is expected to be 1.75% this year and 4.75% during the next 2 years. Assume that the maturity risk premium is zero. What is the yield on 2-year Treasury securities? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. 6.50 What is the yield on 3-year Treasury securities? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. 3.750 % %

Suppose the inflation rate is expected to be 6.75% next year, 4.3% the following year, and 2.3% thereafter. Assume that the real risk-free rate, r*, will remain at 1.85% and that maturity risk premiums on Treasury securities rise from zero on very short-term bonds (those that mature in a few days) to 0.2% for 1-year securities. Furthermore, maturity risk premiums increase 0.2% for each year to maturity, up to a limit of 1.0% on 5-year or longer-term T-bonds. Calculate the interest rate on 3-year Treasury securities.

you are considering investing in a four year security which pays 6,000 in one year. 6,000 in two years, 6,000 in 3 years and 17,500 in 4 years. the security currently trades at a price of of 18,483.77.  What is the yield to maturity of the security? What is duration?

The real risk-free rate is 2.75%. Inflation is expected to be 3.75% this year, 4.25% next year, and 2.5% thereafter. The maturity risk premium is estimated to be 0.05 x (t-1) %, where t- number of years to maturity. What is the yield on a 7-year Treasury note? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. %

Interest rates on 4-year Treasury securities are currently 5.0%, while 6-year Treasury securities yield 7.45%. 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. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
