If a bank sellsa $100 security to the Fed, show, using T-accounts, what happens to this bank and two additional steps in the deposit expansion process, assuming a 10% reserve requirement. How much do deposits and loans increase for the banking system when the process is completed?Step 1Bank ABank A$90 of excess reserves.Step 3Bank BStep 4Bank BNext, the loan proceeds are deposited in Bank C, which then lends itsexcess reserves Step 5Bank CStep 6Bank CFor the banking system, both loans and deposits increase by $1000.2.If over the next five years, the interest rates on 1-year bonds are expected to be 5, 7, 7, 6, and 5 percent, and the liquidity premium for five-year bonds is 1 percent. According to the expectations theory of the term structure, what is the rate on five-year bonds? According to the liquidity premium theory, what is the rate on five-year bonds? Explain the difference between the two answers.The expectations theory predicts that the five-year interest rate is the average of five 1-year interest rates, which is 6 percent in this problem. The liquiditypremium theory adds a term premium due to a preference for short-termbonds to the expectations theory. In this problem, the liquidity premiumtheory predicts a rate of 7 percent.3.Explain the concepts of asymmetric information, adverse selection, and moral hazard. When do adverse selection and moral hazard become relevant to the lending process? How has the financial system developed to deal with these problems?Answer: Asymmetric information is uneven information, which creates the problems of adverse selection and moral hazard. Adverse selection is having adisproportionate number of high-risk loan applications. Moral hazard is therisk that the borrower will engage in risky behavior after the loan is made.Adverse selection is a problem before a loan is made, and moral hazard is aproblem that exists after a loan is made. Financial intermediaries develop theexpertise to screen and monitor loans, overcoming these problems.Regulations require timely provision of information.4.What is the yield to maturity of a corporate bond with a 3-year maturity, 5 percent coupon(semiannual payments),and $1000 face value if the bond sold for $978.3?Payments comprise an ordinary annuity of $25 every 6 months for 3 years plus alump sum of $1,000 at end of 3 years. What discount rate equates this payment stream to $978.30?Calculator: 6 N 25 PMT -978.30 PV 1,000 FV I= 2.899% (semiannual yield, or i/2 in the equation above); double to annualize: 5.80%.5.A 180-day bank accepted bill (face value $100) is issued at$93. What is the yield on a discount basis?Answer: idb=(100-93)/100 *（360/180)=14%6.After careful analysis, you have determined that a firm’s dividends should grow at 7% on average in the foreseeable future. The firm’s last dividend was $3. Compute the current price of this stock, assuming the required return is 18%.Answer: Po=(3*1.07）/(18%-7%)=29.187.Explain the complete formula for the money supply, and explain how changes in required reserves, excess reserves, the currency ratio, the nonborrowed base, and discount borrowing affect the money supply.The formula indicates that the money supply is the product of the multiplier times the base.Increases in any of the multiplier components, required reserves, r; excess reserves, e; or the currency ratio, c, reduce the multiplier and the money supply. Increases in the nonborrowed base and discount borrowing both increase the base and the money supply.。
