Suppose that you buy a two-year 7.4% bond at its face value. a-1. What will be your total nominal return over the two years if inflation is 2.4% in the first year and 4.4% in the second?

15.35%

Explanation:

The total nominal return over the two years if inflation is 2.4% in the first year and 4.4% in the second year will be calculated thus:

= (1+Interest rate)² -1

= (1 + 7.4%) - 1

= (1 + 0.074)² - 1

= 1.074² - 1

= 1.153476 - 1

= 0.153476

= 15.35% over the two years
