An investor in Treasury securities expects inflation to be 1.6% in Year 1, 3.05% in Year 2, and 3.85% each year thereafter. Assu
mixer [17]

Answer:

The difference between two securities is 0.89%.

Explanation:

Inflation premium for the next three and five years:

Inflation premium (3) = (1.6% + 3.05% + 3.85%) ÷ 3

                                  = 2.83%

Inflation premium (5) = (1.6% + 3.05% + 3.85% + 3.85% + 3.85%) ÷ 5

                                  = 3.24%

Real risk-free rate = 2.35%

Since default premium and liquidity premium are zero on treasury bonds, we can now solve for the maturity risk premium:

Three-year Treasury securities = Real risk-free rate + Inflation premium (3) + MRP(3)

6.80% = 2.35% + 2.83% + MRP(3)

MRP (3) = 1.62%

Similarly,

5-year Treasury securities = Real risk-free rate + Inflation premium (5) + MRP(5)

8.10% = 2.35% + 3.24% + MRP(3)

MRP (5) = 2.51%

Thus,

MRP5 - MRP3 = 2.51% - 1.62%

                         = 0.89%

Therefore, the difference between two securities is 0.89%.

devlian [24]

A creditor who extends credit to a consumer to purchase a consumer good under a written security agreement obtains​ a<u> "purchase money" </u>security interest in the consumer good.

A purchase money security interest (PMSI) is a legitimate claim that enables a lender to repossess property financed with its loan or demand repayment in real money if the borrower defaults. It gives the lender need over other creditors cases.  

A PMSI is utilized by some commercial lenders and credit card guarantors just as by retailers who offer financing alternatives.

return/investment

<u>return:</u>

In this case, it will be the cost saving for the new machine: 161,000

<u>investment</u>

161,000/444,000 = 0.3612 = 36.26%

Consideration:

Is important to state that this rate, do not consider the time value of money, neither the cash flow of the project.
