Suppose that Third National Bank has reserves of $20,000 and checkable deposits of $100,000. The reserve ratio is 20 percent. Th
podryga [215]

Answer:

$5,000

Explanation:

New total reserve = Existing reserve + Increase in reserve = $20,000 + $5,000 = $25,000

Required reserve still remains at $20,000 because the sale of securities does not change the checkable deposits,

Therefore, we have

Excess reserves = Actual reserve - Required reserve = $25,000 - $20,000 = $5,000 .

Therefore, level of excess reserves the bank now have is $5,000.

Consider the case of Demed Inc.: Demed Inc. has 9% annual coupon bonds that are callable and have 18 years left until maturity.
solong [7]

Answer:

A) YTM = 7.64%

B) YTC = 7.36%

C) 8 years

D )   7.64%

Explanation:

Annual coupon bond rate = 9%

number of year left until maturity = 18

par value of Bonds( FV ) = $1000

current market price( PV ) = $1130.35

Demed can call bonds in 8 years at a call price of $1060

A) what is the Bonds' YTM  ( yield to maturity )

we calculate the interest per period ( PMT )

= ( Fv * Annual coupon bond rate) / number of compounding per year

= (1000 * 9% ) / 1 = $90

next we calculate number of compounding periods till maturity ( NPER )

= number of years to maturity * number of compounding per year

= 18 * 1 =  18

using excel formula = RATE ( NPER,PMT,PV,FV) )

hence yield to maturity = 7.64%

B) what is YTC ( yield to call )

we calculate the interest per period ( PMT )

= $1000 * ( coupon rate / number of compounding per year )

= $1000 * ( 9% / 1 )  = $90

 next we calculate the number of compounding periods till sell

= 8 * 1 = 8

using excel formula = RATE ( NPER,PMT,PV,FV) )

Hence the YTC = 7.36%

C) Bonds will be called at 8 years and this is because the YTC is less than YTM

D )   The coupon rate for the bonds to be issued  at par,  is  7.64%
