Suppose the interest rate that banks in Techland charge one another for overnight loans is 5 percent, the long-term nominal interest rate is 4.5 percent, and the long-term expected inflation rate is 3 percent. What is the long-term expected real interest rate? How will the long-term expected real interest rate be affected if the central bank of Techland starts purchasing government bonds from banks?
assume instead that the nominal interest rate is 4 percent and the expected rate of inflation is minus 1 percent.  Calculate the real rate of interest.
If Dave loans funds at 2 percent while the inflation rate is 4 percent, his real rate of interest is -2 percent?
