A 5-year Treasury bond has a 4.75% yield. A 10-year Treasury
bond yields 6.15%, and a 10-year corporate bond yields 8.6%. The
market expects that inflation will average 2.85% over the next 10
years (IP10 = 2.85%). Assume that there is no maturity
risk premium (MRP = 0) and that the annual real risk-free rate, r*,
will remain constant over the next 10 years. (Hint: Remember that
the default risk premium and the liquidity premium are zero for
Treasury securities: DRP = LP = 0.) A 5-year corporate bond has the
same default risk premium and liquidity premium as the 10-year
corporate bond described.
What is the yield on this 5-year corporate bond? Round your answer to two decimal places.
