  20. Term Structure of Interest Rates LT 6-3 • The Term Structure of Interest Rates is also known as the Treasury Yield Curve • Graph showing the relationship between S/T and L/T interest rates at different maturities • Normal shape is an upward sloping curve, indicating that L/T interest rates are greater than S/T interest rates

  21. U.S. Government Securities LT 6-4 Treasury Bills (T-Bills) = short-term IOUs 3 months to 1 year in maturity Treasure Notes = intermediate term 1 to 10 years in maturity Treasury Bonds = long term 10 to 40 years in maturity

  23. Working Capital Financing Plans LT 6-6 • An aggressive (risky) firm: – S/T financing and low liquidity • A conservative (safe or cautious) firm: – L/T financing and high liquidity • A moderate (balanced) firm: – S/T financing and high liquidity OR – L/T financing and low liquidity • An appropriate strategy is determined based on the company’s tolerance for risk
