Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": large numbers of depositors withdrawing their deposits within a short period of time.

Explanation:

A bank run is a situation in which account holders massively withdraw their funds under the fear the financial institution will lose its liquidity. The situation gets to a point in which the bank is at risk of sensing all its reserves and fail to provide all its clients the money they deposited.

In the U.S. financial institutions with deposits between $16 and $122.3 million must have a minimum reserve of 3%. When the deposits exceed $122.3 million the minimum reserve increases to 10%. The rest of the money is reinvested by banks.

Explanation:

The per instrument cost of the bank is $0.25. Assuming uniform cheque value, the 24 million remittances across 10000 cheque will mean per cheque value of 2400. If this amount can be invested at 8% p.a., then daily investment income will be approx = 2400 * 8% /365 = $ 0.526

Now for the company to jus about cover the cost of the cheque processing, the time should reduce by (assuming fractional time in days is possible) 0.25/0.526 = 0.48 days

Now if the interest that can be earned reduces to 4%, the average daily interest will also reduce to $0.263. At this level, the time required to cover the cost should reduce by 0.95 days

The difference is simply because the opportunity cost in terms of alternate usage of funds has decreased for the company.

For fixed-rate bonds it's important to realize that the value of the bond has a(n)-Select relationship to the level of interest

pogonyaev

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

It's necessary to remember that the value of fixed-rate bonds is inversely proportional to the level of interest rates. The value of the bond decreases as interest rates rise; moreover, the value of the bond rises as interest rates fall. A Bond with a lower coupon sells for less than its face value. When the going rate of interest is higher than the coupon rate, this condition arises. The value of the asset would increase over time. A higher coupon bond is one that sells for a higher price than its face value. When the going rate of interest is lower than the coupon rate, this condition arises. Its value will gradually decrease until it reaches its maturity value. A par value bond that sells at par, with a coupon rate equal to the current interest rate. The coupon is usually set at the going market rate on the day the bond is sold, so it sells at par at first.

Calculations:

C = Coupon Payments = $60 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 10

i = market rate or required yield = 7% = 0.007

K = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 1

P = value at maturity or par value = 1000

Present value of ordinary annuity formula:

Bond Price = C/k * $[\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk} } }{\frac{i}{k} } ]$ + $\frac{P}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk} }$

Just plug in the values and you will get:

Bond Price = 60 x 7.02 + 508.35

Bond Price = 421.41 508.35

Bond Price = $929.76

Similarly,

Data:

C = Coupon Payments = $60 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 10

i = market rate or required yield = 7% = 0.007

K = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 2

P = value at maturity or par value = 1000

Present value of ordinary annuity formula:

Bond Price = C/k * $[\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk} } }{\frac{i}{k} } ]$ + $\frac{P}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk} }$

Just plug in the values and you will get:

Bond Price = 30 x 14.21 + 502.57

Bond Price = 426.37 + 502.57

Bond Price = $928.94
