3 Theories Explaining the Shape of the Yield Curve [Video]

There are three theories to explain the shape of the yield curve. Expectation theory says the long-term yield of a financial instrument is the average of the short-term yields that are expected to occur over the life of the instrument. Thus: • An upward yield curve means investors expect short-term yields to rise in the future • A downward yield curve means investors expect short-term yields to decline in the futureThe yield curve, therefore, changes as investors’ expectations about future short-term yields change. This explains why yields with different maturities tend to move together. Market segmentation theory says that yields for different terms are based on supply and demand. In short, some investors have a preference for financial instruments with a certain maturity, and these preferences determine yields. The downside of market segmentation theory is that it fails to explain why yields with different maturities tend to move together.Liquidity premium theory is a combination of expectations theory and market segmentation theory. According to this theory, the long-term yield is the average of short-term yields throughout the life of the bond plus a liquidity premium that represents the supply and demand for bonds at that term.— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

Tax Deduction for Sex Worker? [Video]

Can you get a tax deduction for paying a prostitute?In 2004 and 2005, a tax lawyer named deducted more than $100,000 he had paid to prostitutes for services rendered. He categorized this as a medical expense per § 213 of the tax code. He described it as “sex therapy”Now, § 213(a) does allow a deduction for medical/dental expenses. But the Treasury Regulations say you can’t get a deduction for illegal medical treatments. Since prostitution was illegal in the taxpayer’s state of New York, the Tax Court disallowed the deductionThe taxpayer also tried to deduct several thousand dollars for pornographic materials, but the Tax Court said that didn’t count as a medical expense either. The materials weren’t prescribed by a doctor, and were thus a personal expense. And the tax code doesn’t give many deductions for personal expensesSo, if you want to deduct the cost of sex therapy:• It needs to be legal in your state• It needs to be prescribed by a doctor— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
