Suppose the current interest rate on a one-year bond is 2% and the current interest rate on a two-year bond is 4%. The term premium on a two-year bond is 1%. According to the expectations hypothesis, what interest rate should we expect on a one-year bond next year? Answer as a percentage to one decimal place and do not include symbols (e.g. $, %, commas) in your answer. Answer:

Markets are ignoring this guidance, with the start of the interest rate hiking cycle starting to be priced into the later part of 2022, just 12 months from now, and around two years before the RBA reckons it will need to move. Recall the current official cash rate is 0.1 per cent. The market is pricing in a 0.5 per cent cash rate by the middle of 2023, 1.0 per cent by the end of 2023 and with further increases through 2024.” Use the dynamic aggregate demand and aggregate supply model to explain the type and how to implement monetary policy and the effects of the monetary policy of the Reserve Bank of Australia according to the statement mentioned above.

Let's denote the price of a nonmaturing bond (called a consol) as P. The equation that indicates this price is P, =-, where I is the annual net income the bond generates and r is the nominal market interest rate. a. Suppose that a bond promises the holder $200 per year forever. The nominal market interest rate is 6 percent. Calculate the bond's current price: $ 3333. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) b. Calculate the bond's price, if the market interest rate increases to 12 percent: $. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

The formula for the deficit in the pension fund of a large company is given by y (in millions of dollars) for year x (where x = 0 is Jan. 1, 2000). The formula for y is y = -.11x3 + 1.4x2 + 2.6x + 40 Consider the years Jan 1, 2000 to Jan 1, 2015 (x=0 to x =15). Hints: y  = -.33x2 + 2.8x + 2.6 has roots x= 9.329 and x= -.845 y   = -.66x+2.8 has root x = 4.2424 Find the absolute maximum and minimum for the deficit: List the candidates table for max/mins: Four decimal places are enough. The largest deficit is _____________ in the year ___________ The smallest deficit is ________________ in the year _______________
Assume i=0%, beta=1. Consumer has income of 80 in year 1, 100 in year 2. Now suppose gov't gives consumers a free check of 10 in year 1. Suppose consumers are naive (they don't anticipate the free check is financed by borrowing from China, which needs to be paid back through more tax in period 2), consumer will consume ____ in year 1. Hint: when consumers are naive, they will believe they have 80+10=90 income in period 1, and 100 income in period 2.
