Due to a recession, expected inflation this year is only 3.75%. However, the inflation rate in Year 2 and thereafter is expected

to be constant at some level above 3.75%. Assume that the expectations theory holds and the real risk-free rate (r*) is 3.5%. If the yield on 3-year Treasury bonds equals the 1-year yield plus 0.5%, what inflation rate is expected after Year 1

Answer:

5.25%

Explanation:

To calculate the inflation for the year 3, we will have to calculate the yield on 1 Year treasury bond.

The yield is calculated using the following formula:

Nominal Yield on Bond = Real risk free rate + Inflation for the year

Here

Inflation for Year One is 3.75%

Real Risk-Free Rate is 3.5%

Nominal yield on bond is Y for year 1

By putting values, we have:

Y = 3.5% + 3.75% = 7.25%

For 3 years treasury bond,

Nominal Yield on Treasury Bond  for 3 years = Yield on year 1 + Inflation

Y3 = 7.25% + 1.5% = 8.75 %

Now if we deduct the real risk free rate from the  3 year yield on the treasury bond, then the resultant rate would be the inflation rate for the year 3.

Inflation Rate for Year 3 = Y3 - Real Risk-Free Rate

Inflation Rate for Year 3 = 8.75% - 3.5%

Inflation Rate for Year 3 = 5.25%

laila [671]

Answer:

The correct answer is: expressed in the prices of a base year.

Explanation:

Real GDP is an inflation-adjusted measure to calculate changes in economic output. It calculates the value of final goods and services produced in an economy in a year expressed in the prices of a base year.

Real GDP does not include changes in the price of products as it is calculated at constant prices.  

Nominal GDP, on the other hand, is calculated on the basis of current prices. It includes changes in prices and is not inflation-adjusted. That is why real GDP is preferred over nominal GDP.

                                                   premium x (unsold bonds / Bonds issued)]

                                           =  (300,000 x 0.09) - 60000/10 x 200,000/300,000

                                          =  (27,000 - 6000) x 0.66667

                                          =  21,000 x 0.66667

                                          = $14,000
