Suppose the real risk-free rate is 3.80% and the future rate of inflation is expected to be constant at 2.90%. What rate of return would you expect on a 1-year Treasury security, assuming the pure expectations theory is valid? Include cross-product terms, i.e., if averaging is required, use the geometric average.
Suppose the real risk-free rate is 4.25% and the future rate of inflation is expected to be constant at 3.90%. What rate of return would you expect on a 1-year Treasury security, assuming the pure expectations theory is valid? Include cross-product terms, i.e., if averaging is required, use the geometric average. (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Suppose the real risk-free rate is 3.00%, the average expected future inflation rate is 6.60%, and a maturity risk premium of 0.10% per year to maturity applies, i.e., MRP = 0.10%(t), where t is the number of years to maturity.
