16. Yield Curve Construction Step 1:Find the average expected inflation rate over Years 1 to n: IP n = . n

18. Step 2: Find MRP Based on This Equation: MRP t = 0.1%(t – 1). MRP 1 = 0.1% x 0 = 0.0%. MRP 10 = 0.1% x 9 = 0.9%. MRP 20 = 0.1% x 19 = 1.9%.
19. Step 3: Add the IPs and MRPs to k*: k RF t = k* + IP t + MRP t . k RF = Quoted market interest rate on treasury securities. Assume k* = 3%: k RF1 = 3.0% + 5.0% + 0.0% = 8.0%. k RF10 = 3.0% + 7.5% + 0.9% = 11.4%. k RF20 = 3.00% + 7.75% + 1.90% = 12.65%.

27. Observed Treasury Rates Maturity 1 year 2 years 3 years 4 years 5 years Yield 6.0% 6.2% 6.4% 6.5% 6.5% If PEH holds, what does the market expect will be the interest rate on one-year securities, one year from now? Three-year securities, two years from now?
28. 0 1 2 5 6.0% 3 4 x% 6.2% PEH tells us that one-year securities will yield 6.4%, one year from now (x%). 6.2% = 12.4% = 6.0 + x% 6.4% = x%. (6.0% + x%) 2
29. 0 1 2 5 6.2% 3 4 x% 6.5% [ 2(6.2%) + 3(x%) ] 5 PEH tells us that three-year securities will yield 6.7%, two years from now (x%). 6.5% = 32.5% = 12.4% + 3(x%) 20.1% = 3(x%) 6.7% = x%.
