Answer:
The expected return = 10.739.
Explanation:
Given risk-free rate of return = 2.3 per cent
Market expected return = 12 percent
The value of beta = 0.87
Use the below formula to find the expected return.
The expected return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × (Market expected return - risk free rate of return)
The expected return = 2.3 + 0.87 (12 – 2.3)
The expected return = 10.739

Answer:
The bank will be able to lend:
$42,105,263 ($8 million/ 0.19)
Explanation:
The above amount which the bank can lend from the $8 million received from the Federal Reserve for a customer is a function of $8 million deposit in a customer's account and the reserve ratio. This is called the money multiplier.
The money multiplier is the amount of money that banks generate with each dollar of reserves. Reserves is the amount of deposits that the Federal Reserve requires banks to hold and not lend. The level of Reserves and deposit liabilities determine the amount a bank can lend out.
The process by which banks create more money than the physical money is called money creation. This shows that a bank creates more money in the economy through its lending activities.
(A) Debt ratio = 0.32
Debt/(debt + equity)= 0.32
Debt = 0.32 *Debt + 0.32 *Equity
0.68* Debt = 0.32* Equity
Debt = 0.32*Equity/0.68 = 0.32/0.68 * Equity
Debt /equity ratio = (0.32/068*Equity)/Equity
Debt/Equity ratio = 0.32/0.68 = 0.47
Debt-equity ratio = 0.47 (Rounded to 2 decimals)
(B) Equity multiplier = 1 + debt -equity = 1+0.47 = 1.47
Equity multiplier = 1.47 (Rounded to 2 decimals)
