With an increase in the reserve requirement, the maximum amount of new loans that this bank can make is $2,000. Hence, Option B is correct.

<h3>What is the reserve requirement?</h3>

The amount that is required by a commercial bank to reserve from deposits in order to guarantee that there is always enough liquidity to meet customer withdrawals is known as the reserve requirement.

It refers to the portion of deposits that commercial banks are prohibited from lending against. In the given case, the amount of new loans that a bank can make is computed as follows:

The required reserve is given as follows:

Initial Required Reserve = 20% ∗ $40,000

Initial Required Reserve =$8,000

Now, when the required reserve increases to 25%, then the new required reserve is expressed as

New Required Reserve=25%∗$40,000

New Required Reserve=$10,000

Thus, the maximum amount that can now be given as loans is as follows:

Maximum Loan amount=$10,000−$8,000

Maximum Loan amount=$2,000

Thus, Option B is correct.

Assume the real rate of interest is 3.00% and the inflation rate is 6.00%. What is the value today of receiving 14,488.00 in 13.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Present Value= $15,874.25

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Assume the real rate of interest is 3.00% and the inflation rate is 6.00%. What is the value today of receiving 14,488.00 in 13.00 years?

<u>This is a rare case where the interest rate is negative:</u>

Interest rate= 0.03 - 0.06= -0.03

Having said this, the present value is higher than the final value:

PV= FV/ (1+i)^n

PV= 14,488/ 0.97^3= $15,874.25

LUVFINANCE, Inc. is estimating its WACC. It is operating at its optimal capital structure. Its outstanding bonds have a 12 perce
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

9.72%

Explanation:

Maturity = 34

Par-value = -1000

Coupon rate = 6%

Coupon PMT = -60

Value of bond = 1152

Semi-annual Yield = Rate(34, -60, 1162, -1000, 0, 0)

Semi-annual Yield = 5.00%

Annual Yield = 10%

Tax rate = 40%

After tax cost of debt = 10*(1-0.4)= 6%: Add: Flotation cost (5%) = 11%

Cost of preferred stock = Dividend/Price = 12/120 = 10%

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta*Market risk premium

Cost of equity = 3.72 + 0.94*6

Cost of equity = 9.36%

Particulars  Value per    No of        Market   Weight  Cost of     Product

                    security    securities     value                    security

Bonds             1162       100000     116200000   0.15784   11          1.736213

P. stock           120        1000000  120000000  0.16299   10         1.62999

Equity              100        5000000 <u>500000000</u> <u>0.6792</u>   9.36       <u>6.35697</u>

So, the WACC of the firm is 9.72%

Consider the following work breakdown structure:What is the probability that this project will be completed within 210 days AND
ella [17]

Answer: 0.8186  

Explanation:

Given that;

activity To    Tm Tp     Te (V)^0.5            v

A         38    50 62    50 4                   16

B         90    99 108    99 3                    9

C         70    80 90    80 3.333333    11.11111

D         19    25 31    25 2                    4

E         91    100 115    101 4                   16

F         62    65 68    65 1                    1

Expected duration Te = (4 × Tm + To + Tp ) / 6

Variance = ( Tp-To/6]²

variance of the critical path = 9+16 =25

SD of the critical path = ( var)^0.5 = 5

probability that the project will be completed within  210 days is given by

z = (210-200) / 5 = 2

which gives probability of 0.97725

Probability that the project will be completed within 195 days

z = (195-200) / 5 = -1

which corresponds to probability of 0.1586

Now required probability that project completes within 210 but before 195 days is given by

0.97725 - 0.1586 = 0.8186

Discuss whether or not consumers benefit more from a market economic system or a mixed economic system. *
storchak [24]

Answer:

compared to a mixed economy, a market economy tends to benefit the consumers.

This is mainly because the government intervention and restrictions are minimum in a market economy, compared to a mixed economy in which the government plays a major part as an economic agent and a regulator.

A free market system's main aim is to enhance  the competitions and the freedom of choice for the consumers.

However, in the real world scenarios, pure free market systems are difficult to be seen and most of the time, the economies are Mixed economies.

Even in USA's economy 40% of the economy consists of the government agencies and activities.

This is mainly due to the economic malpractices by the producers and corporations.
