Suppose the real risk-free rate is 3.00%, the average expected future inflation rate is 5.90%, and a maturity risk premium of 0.10% per year to maturity applies, i. e., MRP = 0.10% (t), where t is the number of years to maturity. What rate of return would you expect on a 1-year Treasury security, assuming the pure expectations theory is NOT valid? Disregard cross-product terms, i. e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average.

    The answer is 9.00%

    Explanation:

    real risk-free rate = 3.00%

    average expected future inflation rate = 5.90%

    Maturity risk premium = 0.10%

    The expected rate of return on a 1 year treasury security would be = the average expected future inflation rate + maturity risk premium + real risk-free rate.

    = 3.00% + 5.90% + 0.10%

    = 9.00%
