The forward rate for year 1 is 4.4%. The forward rate for year 2 is 3.7%. The forward rate for year 3 is 4.7%. Determine the At-Par Yield rate (swap rate). Hint: you will need to determine the spot rates first or rewrite your swap rate formula in terms of forward rates.) Round your answer to 4 significant digits

4. Question 4 Relation between spot and forward rates Suppose the spot rates for 1 and 2 years are s1 = 6.3% s1=6.3% and s2 = 6.9% with annual compounding. Recall that in this course interest rates are always quoted on an annual basis unless otherwise specified. What is the forward rate, f1,2 assuming annual compounding? Please submit your answer as a percentage rounded to one decimal place so, for example, if your answer is 8.789% then you should submit an answer of
