Liquidity Premium Hypothesis Based on economists' forecasts and analysis, one-year Treasury bill rates and liquidity premiums for the next four years are expected to be as follows: R1 = 7.60% E(r2) = 8.70% L2 = 1.05% E(r3) = 8.80% L3 = 1.15% E(r4) = 9.10% L4 = 1.20% Using the liquidity premium hypothesis, what is the current rate on a four-year Treasury security?
Suppose that the current 1-year rate (1-year spot rate) and expected 1-year T-bill rates over the following three years (i.e., years 2, 3, and 4, respectively) are as follows: 1R1 = 6%, E(2r1) = 7%, E(3r1) = 7.60%, E(4r1) = 7.95% Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current (long-term) rates for one-, two-, three-, and four-year-maturity Treasury securities. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
One-year Treasury bills currently earn 5.50 percent. You expect that one year from now, one-year Treasury bill rates will increase to 5.75 percent. If the unbiased expectations theory is correct, what should the current rate be on two-year Treasury securities? 5.50% 5.625% 5.75% 11.25%
