Suppose First National Bank holds $100 million in assets with an average duration of 3 years, and it holds $90 million in lia

Nitella [24]

Answer:

% change decrease is = 1.2 %

Explanation:

given data

assets = $100 million

average duration = 3 years

liabilities = $90 million

average duration = 3 years

interest rates= 4% increase

to find out

percentage decrease in First National Bank's net worth relative to the total original asset value

solution

change in assets value is

change in assets value = $100 million × 4% × 3 year = $1200 million

change in liability value is

change in assets value = $90 million × 4% × 3 year = $1080 million

change in net worth = $1200 - $1080 = $120 million

so % change is = $\frac{120}{100}$

% change decrease is = 1.2 %

A project initially costs $40,500 and will not produce any cash flows for the first 2 years. Starting in Year 3, it will produce

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Net present value = $2063.1922

Explanation:

given data

initially costs = $40,500

cash flows = $34,500

final cash inflow = $12,000

required rate of return = 18.5 percent

solution

The cash flows is

Year 0 = $40500

Year 1 = $0

Year 2 = $0

Year 3 = $34500

Year 4 = $34500

Year 5 = $0

Year 6 = $12000

so Net present value will be express as

Net present value = -Initial cash outflow + Present value of future cash flows ...............1

Present value of future cash flows = (cash flow in year n) ÷ (1 + required rate of return)^t ..........................2

put here value we get

Present value = $\frac{0}{(1+0.185)^1} + \frac{0}{(1+0.185)^2} + \frac{34500}{(1+0.185)^3} + \frac{34500}{(1+0.185)^4} + \frac{0}{(1+0.185)^5} + \frac{12000}{(1+0.185)^6}$

Present value = $42563.1922

Net present value= -$40500 + $42563.1922

Net present value = $2063.1922

A portfolio manager buys $1 million of U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 90 days at a price of $990,390 and discount rate of 3.8%.

ioda

Answer:

A. Outperforming the benchmark

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the manager's portfolio

First step is to calculate the Treasury bill, bond-equivalent yield for U.S.

Using this formula

Treasury bill

=(Face value − Market value) / Market value × 365 / 90

Let plug in the formula

Treasury bill= ($1,000,000 − 990,390) / 990,390 × 365 / 90

Treasury bill=0.0097 × 0.04056

Treasury bill= 3.93%.

Second step is to calculate The total market value of the portfolio

Total market value portfolio=$990,390 + $100,000 + $200,000

Total market value portfolio= $1,290,390

Now let calculate the manager's portfolio

Manager's portfolio=3.93% ($990,390 / $1,290,390) + 4.34% ($100,000 / $1,290,390) + 4.84% ($200,000 / $1,290,390)

Manager's portfolio=3.93%(76.75%)+4.34%(7.75%)+4.84%(15.50%)

Manager's portfolio=0.0410*100

Manager's portfolio= 4.10%

Therefore Based on the above calculation the manager's portfolio is 4.10% OUTPERFORMING THE BENCHMARK because the manager's portfolio of 4.10% is higher than bond-equivalent yield benchmark portfolio of 4.0%.
