Answer:

a. Long

b. $375.00

Explanation:

a. If interest rates decrease over the period of investment, Treasury bond prices will increase. Thus, Dudley Savings Bank should take a long position in the futures contracts on the Treasury bonds. As T-bond prices go up, so will T-bond futures prices.

b. Given a long position:

Net profit = Sale price of futures − Purchase price of futures

= $107,687.50 − $107,312.50 = $375.00

Purchase price of futures = 107 − 100 = 107 10/32% × $100,000 = $107,312.50

Sale price of futures = 107 − 220 = 107 22/32% × $100,000 = $107,687.50

A borrower takes out a 30-year adjustable rate mortgage loan for $200,000 with monthly payments. The first two years of the loan
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

1003

Explanation:

Given:

Period= 30 years, Loan amount= $200,000,

Payments- Monthly,

Teaser rate for first 2 years = 4%,

Annual payment cap=5%, Composite rate on reset date= 6%

Annual rate for 2 years =4%

Monthly rate will be 4/12 = 0.3333% = 0.003333

n=30years=360 months

Monthly payment for first 2 years = Pr(1+r)^n/((1+r)^n-1)

= 200000\times0.0033\times1.033^{360}/(1.033^{360}-1)

= 954.83

or by Excel function = PMT(0.003333,360,200000,0) = 954.83

Loan balance after 2 years = PV(0.003333,336,-954.83,0) = 192,812.36 or

Balance=A(1+r)^n-PMT\times(1+r)^n-1)/i

=200000(1.0033)^{24}-954.83(1+0.003333)^{24}-1)/0.003333

= 192,812.36

Composite rate is 6% but payment is capped at 5%. So new payment from year 3 is 954.83×1.05=1002.57=1003

The unrealized gains is $3500

Explanation:

Y stock has been disposed and its gains or losses are now realized, and it is not applicable to our computation now.

Unrealized gains or losses is the difference between purchase price of a stock and its current market price

Stock X=($43-$40)*1500=$4500 gains

Stock Z=($21-$22)*1000=-$1000 losses

So unrealized gains overall =$4500-$1000

     unrealized gains =$3500

Note that the price of stock X  has risen to $43 from initial $40 while that of company  Z has fallen to$21 from the initial $22.
