Summary Introduction
To show: The “Rule of 73” is slightly better than the “Rule of 72”
Introduction:
The “Rule of 72” states that the time required to double the investment is approximately 72 divided by r%(discount rate). It can be stated in the form of an equation as follows:
Hence, the “Rule of 72” helps in finding the period of investment is (t), the discount rate is (r).

The risk-free rate is
3.7%,
and expected inflation is
2.4%.
If inflation expectations change such that future expected inflation falls to
2.1%,
what will the new risk-free rate be?
D7)
Consider two riskless perpetuities: (i) pays $120 every year; (ii) pays $10 every month. If the rates of returns of the two perpetuities are the same, investors must buy perpetuity (ii) because it makes more interest payments.
