a) You invest 155 000 TL for a year. At the end the year, you have 174 375 TL net in your account. If the inflation realizes at %10 fot this year, calculate real rate of return?
Can real interest rates be negative? Give a simple example?
If you are promised a nominal return of 16%, on a one-year investment, and you expect the rate of inflation to be 2%, what real rate do you expect to earn? Use the Fisher equation, NOT the approximation.
Suppose 1-year T-bills currently yield 7.40% and the future inflation rate is expected to be constant at 3.00% per year. What is the real risk-free rate of return, r*? Disregard any cross-product terms, i.e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average.

- Let’s assume that the real rate of return is a constant 20%. If inflation is 50%, then the nominal rate of return is 80% (because (1+0.50)*(1+0.20) = 1.80). Therefore, you get $180 over a one year period for a $100 investment. Assuming income taxes to the tune of 40%, compute the real value of your investment (after taxes on nominal income have been paid) at the end of the year. Now contrast the same scenario but without any inflation, what would the value of your investment be at the end of the year.
