The action of the bank will put decreased pressure on the money supply, and to reduce the impact of this action, the Fed could decrease the discount rate.

Basically, a decrease in discount rate will make it easy and cheaper for commercial banks to borrow money from Federal Reserve System and thus, results to increase in available credit and lending in the economy

Therefore, if the commercial banks decide to increase their holdings of excess reserves supposed to be remitted to Feds, then, this will put <u>decreased</u> pressure on the money supply, and the Fed would act by <u>decreasing</u> the discount rate.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

a.

3.51%

b.

0%

Explanation:

a.

First, we need to calculate the YTM of 6 months zero-coupon bond by using the following formula

Price = Face value / ( 1 + YTM )^numbers of years

96.79 = 100 / ( 1 + YTM )^1

1 + YTM = 100 / 96.79

1 + YTM = 1.0331646

Now calculate the YTM of 1 Year zero-coupon bond

93.51 = 100 / ( 1 + YTM )^1

YTM = 1.0331646 - 1

YTM = 0.0331646

YTM = 3.31646%

YTM = 3.316%

1 + YTM = 100 / 93.51

1 + YTM = 1.06940

YTM = 1.06940 - 1

YTM = 0.06940

YTM = 6.940%

YTM = 6.94%

Hence the forward rate is calculated as follow

Forward rate = [ (1 + YTM of 1 year zero coupon bond ) / ( 1 + YTM of 6 months year zero coupon bond ) ] - 1 = ( 1 + 6.94% ) / ( 1 + 3.316% ) = [ 1.0694 / 1.03316 ] - 1 = 1.03508 - 1 = 0.03508 = 3.508% = 3.51%

b.

At the time of inception the formward rate is 0.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

$15

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the price the consumer pay for good/service minus the amount the consumer is willing to pay for it.

✓Mr. and Dr. Brown would be willing to pay ​$31

✓Mr. Smith would be willing to pay ​$28

✓Professor Jones and Mr. Jones would be willing to pay ​$22

Elizabeth PRICE for babysitting each set of children for an evening = $22

Consumer surplus= Σ (price that the consumer is willing to pay- Price of the good/service is sold)

= [(31-22)+(28-22)+(22-22)]

= 9+6+0

=$15

Hence, Consumer surplus is $15
