1) The 9-year spot interest rate is 5.44%, the 3-year spot rate is 3.61%. What is the forward rate you can find using the pure expectations theory? Round to the nearest 0.01%. E.g., if your answer is 5.78%, enter it as 5.78. 2) The 8-year spot interest rate (the longer of the spot rates, or the n-year rate) is 5.35% and the 3-year (k-year) forward rate expected (n - k) years from now has been estimated to be 6.98%. What...

Assume that relative PPP holds, and U.S. inflation is expected to be 3% per year for the next two years while Mexican inflation is expected to be 9% per year over the same period. XYZ Corp of USA has a 20 million peso payable at the end of two years. Calculate the expected amount of dollars needed to make the payment at the end of two years. 14. The current spot rate...
The 2 year spot rate is 10.8%. The 3 year spot rate is 11.2%. What is the implied one year forward rate in 2 years? (Enter your answer in percent, rounded to the nearest 0.01%, exclude the "%")
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 = 3.18%,
E(2r1) = 4.60%,
E(3r1) = 5.10%,
E(4r1) = 6.60%
Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current
(long-term) rates for one-, two-, three-, and four-year-maturity
Treasury securities. (Do not round intermediate calculations.

places.)

Question 9 (1 point) Suppose that on January 1, 1987, the spot rate on the Dutch guilder was $0.39 and the 180day forward rate was $0.40. The difference between the spot and forward rates suggested that Question 9 options: a) the guilder had risen in relation to the dollar b) the inflation rate in the Netherlands was declining c) interest rates were higher in the U.S. than in the Netherlands d) the guilder was expected to fall in value relative...
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: 1 R1 = 6%, E1291) = 7%, 431) = 7.40%, E1491) = 7.75% Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current long-term) rates for 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-year-maturity Treasury securities.

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 = 4%, E(2r1) = 5%, E(3r1) = 5.5%, E(4r1) = 5.85% Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current (long-term) rates for 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-year-maturity Treasury securities.

Suppose the spot rate and the 1-year forward rates for the euro are €0.88/$ and €0.95/$ (i.e. 0.95 euros per dollar). (2 points) Is the euro expected to get stronger or weaker? Why? (3 points) What would you estimate is the difference between inflation rates in the US and Europe (i.e., inflation(US) – inflation(Europe))?
