Answer:

28.63%

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of preferred stock is shown below:

Cost of the preferred stock = Dividend ÷ Price of the stock

where,

Dividend is

= $1,000 × $15%

= $150

And, the price of the stock is

= Market value of the stock - flotation cost

= $576 - $52

= $524

So, the cost of preferred stock is

= $150 ÷ $524

= 28.63%

We ignored the marginal tax rate i.e 40%

Suppose a banking system has $100,000 in deposits, a required reserve ratio of 25 percent, and total bank reserves for the whole
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Given that,

Deposits = $100,000

Required reserve ratio = 25 percent

Total bank reserves = $25,000

Required reserve ratio refers to the ratio of deposits that are kept with the federal reserve.

Required reserves:

= Deposits × Required reserve ratio

= $100,000 × 0.25

= $25,000

Excess reserves:

= Total reserves - Required reserves

= $25,000 - $25,000

= $0

So, there is no excess reserves in this economy.

Money multiplier:

= 1/Required reserve ratio

= 1/0.25

= 4

Therefore, the total money creation potential of this deposit is zero.
