Answer:

a. Present value of perpetuity today = Perpetuity amount / Interest rate  = 100 / 0.05 = 2,000GBP. Thus, this asset worth 2,000GBP today

b. Value of perpetuity 3 years from now = Perpetuity amount / Rate = 100/.05 = 2000GBP. The asset worth 3 year from now is 2,000GBP.

c. Since this is a perpetuity; it neither appreciate nor depreciate in value provided the interest rate is constant.

d. There will be a return since we are getting cash-flows in a yearly basis; rate of return will be the interest rate = 5%

The money multiplier equals:________.
Serjik [45]

Answer: B. 1/R, where R represents the reserve ratio for all banks in the economy.

Explanation:

The Money Multiplier is the money that Banks generate given a certain RESERVE REQUIREMENT/RATIO.

A Reserve Requirement is money that the Central Bank requires that Banks do not loan out and instead keep in reserve.

For example, if the reserve rate is 10% and a bank has $10 they can only loan out $9.

Assuming they loan out $9 then they created $19 in the economy because their customers still own the original $10 but now they have also given loans of $9. The people who take the loans then deposit it in another bank. That bank would keep $0.90 in reserve and loan out $8.10 meaning that $27.10 now exists in the economy.

The process goes on and on until it gets to $100.

A simpler way to get to the final figure is to divide 1 by the reserve requirement = 1/r which is the money multiplier.

Using the above example, that would be 1/0.1 which is 10.

Multiplying this 10 by the initial deposit of $10 will give you that same $100.
