The amount he will owe on this debt in 2 years for quarterly compounding is:
= $7,387.28
Explanation:
Accumulated loan debt = $5,000
Interest rate per year = 20%
Period of loan = 2 years
Interest compounding = quarterly
From an online financial calculator:
N (# of periods) 8
I/Y (Interest per year) 20
PV (Present Value) 5000
PMT (Periodic Payment) 0
Results
FV = $7,387.28
Total Interest $2,387.28
Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
For a)
The money multiplier or the credit multiplier can be calculated as follows,
Money multiplier = 1 / reserve ratio
Multiplier = 1 / 0.12 = 8.33 times
For b)
For a negative $80 million change by the Fed there will be a total change in the economy of 80 * 8.33 = $666.4 million.
A -80 million change will contract money supply by $666.4 million in the economy.
For c)
This can be calculated by dividing the target by the money multiplier.
So to achieve a change of $500m the Fed will expand the money supply by
= 500 / 8.33 = $60.02m.
Hope that helps.
