First let us identify if the asset is a gain
or loss. An asset is a gain if it contributes to the banks overall finance while
it is a loss if it is a cost directly or indirectly.
Deposits of $300 million = Gain (+)
Reserves of $20 million = Gain (+)
<span>Purchased government bonds worth $300 million
= Loss (-) ---> This entails
cost</span>
Selling bank’s loans at current market value
of $600 million = Gain (+)
Therefore adding up everything to get the banks net worth:
Stealth banks net worth = $300 M + $20 M - $300 M + $600 M
<span>Stealth banks net
worth = $620 million</span>
Answer:
“Should” or “should not” depend on the cost rate of the option and the risk appetite of investors.
Explanation:
An option is a contract that allows investors to buy or sell instruments such as security, Exchanged Traded Fund or an index at a pre-determined price over a certain period of time.
If the option will cost the investor an additional $10,000 and it is the cost for an option of $10 million investment, then it cost only 0.1% additionally, but it can secure the position of this investment; then the investor should buy this option.
Vice versa, if the additional $10,000 is much more than expected profit, and even lower but significantly drop down the total profit of an investment; and the investor always wish to have a high profit regardless high risk; then he shouldn’t buy this option.
Answer:
Export
true
Explanation:
Because the price of meekers in meekertown is lower than the world price for meekers, meekers from meekertown are cheaper. so if free trade is allowed, other countries would want to purchase meekers from meekertown because it is cheaper.
So, meekertown would export meekers if free trade is allowed.
When a country is too small affect the world price, allowing for free trade will always increase total surplus in that country, regardless of whether it imports or exports as a result of international trade.
this is so because if the country is efficient in production of a good (producing at a lower price when compared to the world price), export of the good would increase thus increasing producer surplus. if on the other hand, the country is inefficient in producing a good and the country allows for free trade, the country can import the good. this would increase consumer surplus.
