|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
interest actually being earned, as opposed to the quoted rate.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
equal payments over its life

investment opportunities in productive (cash-generating) assets.

|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
chance that an investment will provide a low or negative return
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, Inflation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The amount by which prices
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
increase over time |\ |\
r - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔the quoted, or nominal rate of interest
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
on a given security
|\ |\ |\ |\
r* - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔the real risk-free rate of interest (r* is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
pronounced r star and the rate that would where no inflation was
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
expected
|\
rRF - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔the real risk-free rate of interest
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
and the rate that would exist on a riskless security in a world
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

IP - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Inflation premium, IP is equal to the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
average expected rate inflation over the life of the security. The

DRP - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Default Risk Premium. This
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
premium reflects the possibility that the issuer will not pay the

US Treasury Securities, but it rises as the riskiness of the issuer
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
increases.
LP (liquidity premium) - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔This is a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
premium charged by lenders to reflect the fact that some |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
