Compute the interest rate on current treasury securities


Suppose the expectations theory of the term structure is correct. Suppose that the current interest rate on a one-year Treasury bill is 3 percent. Suppose the one-year T-bill rate is expected to rise to 4 percent one year from today, then to 5 percent the following year, and then stay at 5 percent thereafter. Compute the interest rate on current Treasury securities with maturities of one year, two years, three years, four years and five years, and plot the yield curve.
