Solved in 2 steps
- Which of the following is not a determinant of interest rates? a) The Required Rate of Return b) The Liquidity Risk Premium c) The Re-investment Risk Premium d) The Maturity Risk Premium e) None of the aboveWhich tend to be more volatile, short- or long-term interest rates? Long-term interest rates Short-term interest ratesWhich one of the following statements is false concerning the term structure of interest rates? Group of answer choices The real rate of return has minimal, if any, effect on the slope of the term structure of interest rates. The interest rate risk premium increases as the time to maturity increases. Expectations of lower inflation rates in the future tend to lower the slope of the term structure of interest rates. The term structure of interest rates includes both an inflation premium and an interest rate risk premium. As the maturity increases the term structure of interest rates is always an upward sloping curve.
- Which one of the following statements is correct? A. Real rates must exceed inflation rates. B. Real interest rates might be positive, zero, or even negative. C. Nominal interest rates are not affected by inflation rates. D. Real interest rates will be positive as long as the inflation rate is positive. E. The Fisher hypothesis advocates that real interest rates follow inflation rates.Some characteristics of the determinants of nominal interest rates are listed as follows. Identify the components (determinants) and the symbols associated with each characteristic: Characteristic Component Symbol This is the premium that reflects the risk associated with changes in interest rates for a long-term security. It changes over time, depending on the expected rate of return on productive assets exchanged among market participants and people’s time preferences for consumption. This premium is added when a security lacks marketability, because it cannot be bought and sold quickly without losing value. It is calculated by adding the inflation premium to r*. Over the past several years, Germany, Japan, and Switzerland have had lower interest rates than the United States due to lower values of this premium. It is based on the bond’s rating; the higher the rating, the lower the premium added, thus lowering…How low can nominal interest rates go? Explain why they can become negative.
- ( ) is a measure of the sensitivity of the price of a bond or other debt instrument to a change in interest rates. a.Convexity b.Maturity c.Duration d.ImmunizationSome characteristics of the determinants of nominal interest rates are listed as follows. Identify the components (determinants) and the symbols associated with each characteristic: Characteristic This is the premium added to the real risk-free rate to compensate for a decrease in purchasing power over time. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall, and as interest rates fall, bond prices rise. Because interest rate changes are uncertain, this premium is added as a compensation for this uncertainty. This is the rate for a short-term riskless security when inflation is expected to be zero. It is calculated by adding the inflation premium to r*. This is the premium added as a compensation for the risk that an investor will not get paid in full. It is based on the bond's marketability and trading frequency; the less frequently the security is traded, the higher the premium added, thus increasing the interest rate. Component Liquidity risk premium Maturity risk premium Inflation premium…Short-term interest rates are more volatile than long-term interest rates. Despite this, rates of return on long-term bonds are more volatile than rates of return on short-term securities. How can these two empirical observations be reconciled?
