"If Treasury bills are currently paying 4.6 percent and the inflation rate is 1.9 percent, what is the approximate real rate of interest? The exact real rate?"
Thank you :)
Suppose the real rate is 2.32 percent and the inflation rate is
2.68 percent. What rate (in percent) would you expect to
earn on a Treasury bill?
Use the exact formula. Answer to two decimals.
(Inflation and interest rates) What would you expect the nominal rate of interest to be if the real rate is 5.3 percent and the expected inflation rate is 2.8 percent?
The nominal rate of interest would be
%. (Round to two decimal places.)
