The market implied spot rates 3.5-years and 4-years from today are 5.00% and 5.25% respectively. Calculate the forward rate three and a half years from today and express it in annual terms.
Calculating rate 3.5 years from now,
(1 + r/2) = (1 + 0.0525/2)8/(1 + 0.05/2)7
r/2 = 3.50%
So,
APR = 2(0.035)
APR = 7.00%

2. You want to know what 2-year spot rates will be one year from now. According to the pure expecta- tions theory, this unknown forward rate of interest is implied by current spot rates. The simplest method of calculating this forward rate is to use today's 1-year and 3-year spot rates; i.e., the spot rates that take you out to the start of, and to the end of the forward period of time you are interested in. Thus: (1 +...
The one-year, two-year, three-year, and four-year spot rates for the theoretical spot rate curve are 5.0%, 6.0%, 6.5%, and 7%, respectively. According the expectations theory for the term structure of interest rates, what is the expected 2-year interest rate 2 years from today? Assume annual compounding.

Suppose the spot and three-month forward rates for the yen are ¥79.40 and $78.80, respectively. What would you estimate is the difference between the annual inflation rates of the United States and Japan? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Annual inflation rate differential
