Answer:

a. 6.625.

b. C = 80 billion, DES = 800 billion and RES = 80 billion.

Explanation:

a) Monetary base = CU + RES = 160 billion. Money supply = CU + DES = 1060 billion. R-D ratio = 100/1000 = 0.10, C-D ratio = 60/1000 = 0.06, money multiplier = (1 + C-D)/(C-D + R-D) = (1 + 0.06)/(0.10 + 0.06) = 6.625.

b) Money multiplier = (1 + 0.10)/(0.10 + 0.10) = 5.5, money supply = monetary base x multiplier or money supply = 160 x 5.5 = 880 billion. CU + DES = 880 billion and C-D = 0.10. Hence C = 80 billion, DES = 800 billion and RES = 80 billion.

You are considering a 10-year, $1,000 par value bond. Its coupon rate is 8%, and interest is paid semiannually. If you require a

Schach [20]

Answer:

$1,061.28

Explanation:

We need to calculate the present value of the bond using the minimum effective rate of 7.1225%

First we calcualte the present value of an annuity of $80 for 10 years

$C * \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

$80 * \frac{1-(1+7.1225%)^{-10} }{7.1225%} = PV\\$

PV = $558.72

Then we calculate the $1,000 in 10 years present value

$\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time}}= PV$

$\frac{1,000}{(1 + 7.1225%)^{10} } = PV$

PV = $502.57

Then we add both values

$502.57 + $558.72 = $1,061.28

This will be the present value AKA market price which yields the minimun rate of 7.1225%
