Human muscle cells undergo ______ when there is an oxygen debt.  This causes muscle soreness and fatigue if the chemical produced accumulates.

In cellular respiration, _______ is oxidized (used a fuel), meaning that electrons are released from this molecule.

Which of the following is not characteristic of carbohydrates?

According to pure expectations theory, the maturity risk premium is _________. 

According to pure expectations theory, the maturity risk premium is _________. 

Keys Corporation’s 5-year bonds yield 8.4%, and 5-year T-bonds yield 6.6%. The real risk-free rate is r* =  1.8%, the inflation premium  for 5 years bonds is  IP = 4.4%, the default risk premium for Keys’ bonds is DRP = 0.38% versus  zero for T-bonds, and the maturity risk premium for all bonds is found with  the formula  MRP =  (t – 1)*0.1%, where t = number of years to maturity.  What  is the liquidity premium (LP) on Keys’ bonds?

Given the following probability distribution, what are the expected return and the standard  deviation of returns for Security J? State                      Pi                              rj     1                          0.3                           17%     2                          0.4                           9%     3                          0.3                           4%

The real risk-free rate of interest is 1 percent.  Inflation is expected to be 5 percent this  coming year, jump to 6 percent next year, and increase to 7 percent the year after (Year 3).   According to the expectations theory, what should be the interest rate on 1-year, risk-free  securities today?

Suppose the real risk-free rate is 3.6%, the average future inflation rate is  2.3%, a maturity premium of 0.06% per year to maturity applies, i.e., MRP =  0.06%(t), where t is the years to maturity.  Suppose also that a liquidity premium  of 0.7% and a default risk premium of 0.7% applies to A-rated corporate bonds.   How much higher would the rate of return be on a 7-year A-rated corporate  bond than on a 5-year Treasury bond.  Here we assume that the pure  expectations theory is NOT valid.
