Bank reserves are $200, the public holds $1000 in currency, and the reserve-deposit ratio is 20%. What is the Value of Bank Depo
Alja [10]

Answer:

What is the Value of Bank Deposits?

bank deposits = bank reserves / required reserve ratio = $200 / 20% = $1,000

What is the Money Supply?

money supply = bank deposits + currency held by the public = $1,000 + $1,00 = $2,000

Suppose that the Fed sells $50 worth of bonds in an "open market sale." Assuming that the public does not wish to change the amount of currency it holds, what is the new money supply after this open market purchase?

if the FED sells $50 worth of bonds, money supply will decrease by $50 x (1 / 20%) = $50 x 5 = $250

total money supply = $2,000 - $250 = $1,750

Bargeron corporation has a target capital structure of 64 percent common stock, 9 percent preferred stock, and 27 percent debt.
dalvyx [7]

a.

WACC is calculated as –

WACC = (Weight of common stock X Cost of common stock) + (Weight of preferred stock X Cost of preferred stock) + (Weight of debt X After tax cost of debt)

WACC = (64% X 13.4%) + (9% X 6.4%) + (27% X ((1- 40%)*8.1%))

WACC = 10.46%

b. After tax cost of debt is calculated as –

After tax cost of debt = (1- tax rate) X cost of debt pre-tax

After tax cost of debt = ((1- 40%)*8.1%))

After tax cost of debt = 4.86%

IgorLugansk [536]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

The Weber Company purchased a mining site for $1,750,000 on July 1. The company expects to mine ore for the next 10 years and anticipates that a total of 400,000 tons will be recovered. The estimated residual value of the property is $150,000. During the first year, the company extracted 6,500 tons of ore. The depletion expense is

Answer:

$26,000

Explanation:

Weber company purchases a mining site for $1,750,000

The company is expected to mine ore for a period of 10 years

A total of 400,000 tons is expected to be recovered

The estimated residual value of the property is $150,000

During the first year, the company extracts 6,500 tons

Therefore, the depletion expense can be calculated as follows

Depletion expense= Actual number of tons that was extracted/Total number of tons to be extracted during the working period × (Original cost of the site-residual value)

= 6,500 tons/400,000 tons × ($1,750,000-$150,000)

= 0.01625 × $1,600,000

= $26,000

Hence the depletion expense is $26,000

When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount S present at time t
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

a) - r=5%: S=$ 5,136.10

- r=4%: S=$ 4,885.61

- r=3%: S=$ 4,647.34

b) - r=5%: t=14 years

- r=4%: t=17 years  [/tex]

- r=3%: t=23 years  [/tex]

c) The amount obtained is

- Compuonded quarterly: $5,191.83

- Compuonded continously: $5,200.71

The latter is always greater, since the more often it is capitalized, the greater the effect of compound interest and the greater the capital that ends up accumulating.

Explanation:

The rate of accumulation of money is

dS/dt=rS

To calculate the amount of money accumulted in a period, we have to rearrange and integrate:

\int dS/S=\int rdt=r \int dt\\\\ln(S)=C*r*t\\\\S=C*e^{rt}

When t=0, S=S₀ (the initial capital).

S=S_0=Ce^{r*0}=Ce^0=C\\\\C=S_0

Now we have the equation for the capital in function of time:

S=S_0e^{rt}

a) For an initial capital of $4000 and for a period of five years, the amount of capital accumulated for this interest rates is:

- r=5%: S=4000e^{0.05*5}=4000*e^{0.25}= 5,136.10

- r=4%: S=4000e^{0.04*5}=4000*e^{0.20}=  4,885.61

- r=3%: S=4000e^{0.03*5}=4000*e^{0.15}=   4,647.34

b) We can express this as

S=S_0e^{rt}\\\\2S_0=S_0e^{rt}\\\\2=e^{rt}\\\\ln(2)=rt\\\\t=ln(2)/r

- r=5%: t=ln(2)/0.05=14

- r=4%: t=ln(2)/0.04=17

- r=3%: t=ln(2)/0.03=  23

c) When the interest is compuonded quarterly, the anual period is divided by 4. In 5 years, there are 4*5=20 periods of capitalization. The annual rate r=0.0525 to calculate the interest is also divided by 4:

S = 4000 (1+(1/4)(0.0525))^{5*4}=4000(1.013125)^{20}\\\\S=4000*1.297958= 5,191.83

If compuonded continously, we have:

S=S_0e^{rt}=4000*e^{0.0525*5}=4000*1.3= 5,200.71

The amount obtained is

- Compuonded quarterly: $5,191.83

- Compuonded continously: $5,200.71

The latter is always greater, since the more often it is capitalized, the greater the effect of compound interest and the greater the capital that ends up accumulating.
