Subtract inflation rate over the life of bond = 6.71 - 2.33
= 4.38
Difference between Risk free rate of the bond yield of 3-months and the inflation rate
= 2.96 -2.33
= 0. 63
Default Risk Premium = Yield AA Rated Bonds - 30 Year Treasury Bond
= 7.73 - 6.89
= 0.84
Maturity Period = Average Yield 30 Year Bond - Average Yield 3 Year Bond
= 6.89 - 4.76
= 2.13
The calculation of liquidity premium will help the investors in finding out the cash they will lose out in case of converting cash into bonds. It is calculated by deducting liquidity premium from liquidity in the bond market.
Default Risk Premium = 0.4 - 0.04
= 0.36
The risk premiums that have deducted inflation from the yields of bonds show that the firm will be able to perform well in the bond market. On the other hand the investors will have to lose a very small amount in case of converting their cash into bonds.
