Due to a recession, expected inflation this year is only 3.25%. However, the inflation rate in Year 2 and thereafter is expected to be constant at some level above 3.25%. Assume that the expectations theory holds and the real risk-free rate (r*) is 2.5%. If the yield on 3-year Treasury bonds equals the 1-year yield plus 1.0%, what inflation rate is expected after Year 1? Round your answer to two decimal places. %

Please show working.    Please answer 1 and 2   1. The real risk-free rate is 2.75%, and inflation is expected to be 4.00% for the next 2 years. A 2-year Treasury security yields 8.25%. What is the maturity risk premium for the 2-year security? Round your answer to two decimal places.   2. The real risk-free rate is 2.9%. Inflation is expected to be 2.2% this year, 4.8% next year, and 2.65% 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 7-year Treasury note? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
