REAL RISK-FREE RATE You read in The Wall Street Journal that 30-day T-bills are currently
yielding 5.5%. Your brother-in-law, a broker at Safe and Sound Securities, has given you the
following estimates of current interest rate premiums:
l Inflation premium= 3.25%
l Liquidity premium = 0.6%
l Maturity risk premium = 1.8%
l Default risk premium = 2.15%
On the basis of these data, what is the real risk-free rate of return?

MATURITY RISK PREMIUM The real risk-free rate is 3%, and inflation is expected to be 3%
for the next 2 years. A 2-year Treasury security yields 6.2%. What is the maturity risk
premium for the 2-year security?

INFLATION CROSS-PRODUCT An analyst is evaluating securities in a developing nation
where the inflation rate is very high. As a result, the analyst has been warned not to ignore
the cross-product between the real rate and inflation. If the real risk-free rate is 5% and
inflation is expected to be 16% each of the next 4 years, what is the yield on a 4-year security
with no maturity, default, or liquidity risk? (Hint: Refer to The Links between Expected
Inflation and Interest Rates: A Closer Look on Page 178.)
