The real risk-free rate is 4.00%, inflation is expected to be 6.00% this year, and the maturity risk premium is zero. Ignoring any cross-product terms, i. e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average, what is the equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond

Bonds often pay a coupon twice a year. for the valuation of bonds that make semiannual payments, the number of periods doubles, whereas the amount of cash flow decreases by half. using the values of cash flows and number of periods, the valuation model is adjusted accordingly. assume that a $1,000,000 par value, semiannual coupon us treasury note with three years to maturity has a coupon rate of 3%. the yield to maturity (ytm) of the bond is 7.70%. using this information and ignoring the other costs involved, calculate the value of the treasury note:
