Inflation and Nominal Returns. Suppose the real rate is 3.2 percent and the inflation rate is 4.3
percent. What rate would you expect to see on a Treasury bill?
Solution
Real rate of interest = 3.2%
Inflation rate = 4.3%
The relationship between nominal, real interest rates with inflation is
Real rate of interest = Nominal rate of interest - Inflation rate
Rearranging the equation, Nominal rate of interest = Real rate of interest + Inflation rate
Nominal rate of interest = 3.2% + 4.3% = 7.5%
Hence we can expect a treasury bill to yield 7.50%
