You said that S = 2(lw + lh + wh)
Divide each side by 2 : S/2 = lw + lh + wh
Subtract 'lh' from each side: S/2 - lh = lw + wh
Factor the right side: S/2 - lh = w(l + h)
Divide each side by (l + h) : (S/2 - lh) / (l + h) = w
Answer:
(a) What is the amount by which Carla Bank's liabilities have changed?
Carla Bank's liabilities increased by $15,000 (bank deposits are liabilities).
(b) Calculate the change in required reserves for Carla Bank.
Carla Bank's reserves must increase by $15,000 x 5% = $750
(c) What is the dollar value of the maximum amount of new loans Carla Bank can initially make because of Christopher's deposit?
Carla Bank can loan $15,000 x 95% = $14,250
(d) Based on the central bank's open-market purchase of bonds, calculate the maximum amount by which the money supply can change throughout the banking system.
Money multiplier = 1 / 5% = 20
The money supply has the potential to increase by $15,000 x 20 = $300,000
(e) How will the change in the money supply in part (d) affect aggregate demand in the short run? Explain.
Aggregate demand will increase since the total money supply increases. This should also help to decrease the interest rates and foster investment.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
The Utilitarian Strategy analyses an intervention in consideration of its effects or results; that is, the net advantages and expenses to all different participants.
It aims to accomplish the maximum good for the greatest amount while producing the least amount of suffering or preventing the most suffering.
In a business setting, this method may focus on a statistical methods of likely results, a traditional cost / benefit calculation, or evaluation of the potential usefulness of a result for different group participants.
Answer:
14.35%
Explanation:
Simon Software Co
rs= 12%
D/E = 0.25
rRF= 6%
RPM= 5%
Tax rate = 40%.
We are going to find the firm’s current levered beta by using the CAPM formula which is :
rs = rRF+ RPM
12%= 6% + 5%
= 1.2
We are going to find the firm’s unlevered beta by using the Hamada equation:
=bU[1 + (1 −T)(D/E)]
Let plug in the formula
1.2= bU[1 + (0.6)(0.25)]
1.2=(1+0.15)
1.2= 1.15bU
1.2÷1.15
1.0435= bU
We are going to find the new levered beta not the new capital structure using the Hamada equation:
b= bU[1 + (1 −T)(D/E)]
Let plug in the formula
= 1.0435[1 + (0.6)(1)]
=1.0435(1+0.6)
=1.0435(1.6)
= 1.6696
Lastly we are going to find the firm’s new cost of equity given its new beta and the CAPM:
rs= rRF+ RPM(b)
Let plug in the formula
= 6% + 5%(1.6696)
= 14.35%
