Answer: B. 1/R, where R represents the reserve ratio for all banks in the economy.
Explanation:
The Money Multiplier is the money that Banks generate given a certain RESERVE REQUIREMENT/RATIO.
A Reserve Requirement is money that the Central Bank requires that Banks do not loan out and instead keep in reserve.
For example, if the reserve rate is 10% and a bank has $10 they can only loan out $9.
Assuming they loan out $9 then they created $19 in the economy because their customers still own the original $10 but now they have also given loans of $9. The people who take the loans then deposit it in another bank. That bank would keep $0.90 in reserve and loan out $8.10 meaning that $27.10 now exists in the economy.
The process goes on and on until it gets to $100.
A simpler way to get to the final figure is to divide 1 by the reserve requirement = 1/r which is the money multiplier.
Using the above example, that would be 1/0.1 which is 10.
Multiplying this 10 by the initial deposit of $10 will give you that same $100.
Answer:
7.83%
Explanation:
This is calculated by using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula as follows: P = d / (r - g) ……………………………………… (1)
Where;
P = market price of the stock = $24.09
d = next year annual dividend = $1.26 r = cost of equity = ?
g = dividend growth rate = 2.6%, or 0.026
Substituting the values into equation and solve for r, we have:
24.09 = 1.26 / (r - 0.026)
24.09 (r - 0.026) = 1.26
24.09r - 0.62634 = 1.26
24.09r = 1.26 + 0.62634
24.09r = 1.88634
r = 1.88634 / 24.09
r = 0.0783038605230386, or 7.83038605230386%
Rounding to 2 decimal places. we have:
r = 7.83%
Therefore, the correct option is 7.83 percent.
