Forward yield curve

Calculate the one-year forward rate. For example, suppose the one-year government bond was yielding 2% and the two-year bond was yielding 4%. The one year forward rate represents the one-year interest rate one year from now. You would solve the formula (1.04)^2=(1.02)(1+F1). F is 6.03%. Now calculate the two-year forward rate one year from now. For example, suppose again the one-year bond is yielding 2% and the three-year bond was yielding 5% (annual basis). (1.05)^3=(1.02)(1+F2)^2. F2=6.53% Continue this exercise for all maturities and you have the one-year forward yield curve. The yield curve graph is usually yield (y-axis) against maturity (x-axis).
