what is the bank discount rate on a $100,000 face value t-bill priced at $97,500, maturing in 181 days?

1 answer:

6 0

In this instance, the answer is 4.97%. When Bank discount rate is $100,000.The bank discount rate is calculated as follows: face value - price /face value * 360/days to maturity

the formula for determining the bank rate of return is as follows

When we apply relevant information to the equation, we receive:

Bank discount rate = 100,000 97,500/ 100,000 *360/ 181 = 0.0497 = 4.97

Why is the bank discount generate not a realistic assessment of the refund on holding a Treasury bonds?

Because it is an annual rate rate of return based on the par value of the bills rather than the actual dollar amount of money invested, and it is calculated on a 360-day rather than a 365-day basis, the Discount Yield can be a misleading measure of the return on T-Bills (used for Treasury bonds and notes).

Answer:

a.) the economic surplus is greater at the equilibrium quantity.

Adams and Collin Enterprises expect earnings and dividends to grow at a rate of 25% for the next 4 years, after the growth rate

ollegr [7]

Answer:

the intrinsic value of the stock is 42.97

If the stock is priced at 40 dollars it would be a good idea to purchase the share as will provide a better yield than the cost of capital of 9.6%

Explanation:

First, we solve for the cost of equity using the CAPM:

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free = 0.03

market rate = 0.09

premium market = (market rate - risk free) = 0.055

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.2

$Ke= 0.03 + 1.2 (0.055)$

Ke = 0.09600

Now we solve for the intrinsic price using the gordon model

with multi-stage growth:

First, we calcualte the future dividends

grow rate Dividends

0 1.25

1 0.25 1.5625

2 0.25 1.953125

3 0.25 2.44140625

4 0.25 3.051757813

4 0.03 3.143310547

Now in the last year, we calcualte using the gordon model or constant grow:

$\frac{3.143310547}{0.096-0.03} = Intrinsic \: Value$

32.7128182

Now we calculate and add together the present value of each of this future cash flow to determnate the intrinsic value ofthe share:

$\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Present Value

1 1.5625 / (1+0.096)^1 = 1.425638686

2 1.953125 / (1+0.096)^2 = 1.625956531

and so on, giving the following values:

3 1.854421226

4 2.114987712

present value of the future dividends at 3% 22.67126448

Finally we add them and get:

42.97160726
