process is complete, the Fed wants there to be $20 billion worth of new funds in the money supply. If the required reserve ratio is 5%, what is the simple money multiplier, and by how much should the Fed initially increase the money supply?

Answer:

20; $1 billion

Explanation:

Given that,

New funds = $20 billion

Required reserve ratio = 5%

Money multiplier:

= 1/Required reserve ratio

= 1/0.05

= 20

Initial money increase by:

= Funds wants to be in the money supply × Required reserve ratio

= $20 billion × 5%

= $1 billion

Therefore, the Fed should initially increase $1 billion in the money supply.

A fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The 1st is a stock fund, the 2nd is a long-term government and corporate bond
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Expected return is: 7.37% and the Standard deviation is: 24.96%

Explanation:

Correlation between fund S&B=0,0667

Standard Deviation of Fund S=41%

Standard Deviation of Fund(B)=30%

E(R) of Stock Fund S=12%

E(R) of Stock Fund B=5%

Covariance between the funds = Standard Deviation of Fund(B) × Standard Deviation of Fund S × correlation between these funds

Cov = 0.41 × 0.30 × 0.0667 = 0.008204

Now minimum variance portfolio is found by applying:

W min(S)=(SDB)^2-Cov(B,S) / ((SDS)^2+(SDB)^2-2Cov(B,S)

W min(S) = 0.338431

W min(B) = 1-0.338431=0.661569

1) E(r)min= 0.338431 × 12% + 0.661569 × 5% = 7.37%

2) Standard Deviation:

SD Min = (Ws^2XSDs^2+Wb^2XSDb^2+2XWsWb*Cov(s,B)^1/2

SDmin=(0.338431^2 × 0.41^2 + 0.661569^2 ×   0.3^2   + 2 × 0.338431 × 0.661569 × 0.008204)^1/2

SDmin=24.96%
