The Fisher Equation and bonds
R = l + i + RP
• l is from required return on index-linked gilts: 1.5%
• l + i is required return on conventional gilts: 4.0%
• l is the real risk free rate (RFR)
• l + i is the nominal risk free rate (RFN)
• RFN = RFR + i and R = RFN + RP

Indexed or conventional bonds?
• Conventional: 4% + 0%
• Expected nominal return: 4% + 0% = 4%
• Expected real return: 4% - 2% = 2%

Bonds or property?
R = RFN + RP
• Expected return on conventional gilts: 4%
• Expected return on property and equities: 4% + RP
• Expected return on property say 5-6%
• This is the observed yield in 1935

Gordon’s Growth Model
• Then: K = R - G
– where k is an initial yield
– R is the required return
– G (nominal) = g (real) + i (inflation)
• R = RFN + RP, so
• K = RFN + RP - G

• Assume:
– constant rate of depreciation (D) = 1%
– RP for office property = 3%
– G = long term average of 2.5% nominal (0.5% real)
• Then:
K = RFN + RP - G + D
K = 4% + 3% - 2.5% + 1% = 5.5%
• The correct yield is 5.5%
• If the current yield is 5%: offices are expensive
• If the current yield is 6%: offices are cheap
