Answer:
$8,693
Explanation:
Effective annual interets rate: AI = (1+i/m)^n - 1
i = 3*2=6%, m = 26
AI = [1+6%/26]^26 - 1
AI = 1.0617 - 1
AI = 0.0617
Let semi annual income be $X. So, present value of four semiannual income will be aggregated to get principal invetsed money of $30,000
30,000 = ∑[X/1.0617^n}
30,000 = 3.451 * X
X = 8693.132425383947
X = $8,693
Therefore, firm have to earn $8,693 after every 6 months at an interest rate of 3% per week to recover $30,000 initial investment in 2 years
Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
For a, first we calculate the credit multiplier of the economy,
Credit multiplier = 1 / reserve ratio
Credit multiplier = 1 / 0.25 = 4
This means that any change in money supply will be 4 times as much in the economy, hence to induce a change of $120 billion, the Fed will decrease the money supply by 120/4 = $30 billion. This will increase the interest rates just enough to stabilize aggregate demand.
For b, we again start by calculating the credit multiplier.
Credit multiplier = 1/0.10 = 10
Since the Fed want to stimulate investment, it needs to use an expansionary monetary policy.
The Fed thus increases the money supply by 150/10 = $15 billion.
This will have the total effect of 150 billion on the whole thus achieving the Fed's objectives.
Hope that helps.
