A CFA is evaluating securities in a developing nation where the inflation rate is veryhigh. As a result, the analyst has been warned not to ignore the cross-product betweenthe required real rate and anticipated inflation, i.e., the exact (multiplicative) approach tothe Fisher equation (formula 2.3) should be used.
