Which of the following statements is most correct? The first payment under a 3-year, annual payment, amortized loan for $1,000 will include a smaller percentage (or fraction) of interest if the interest rate is 5 percent than if it is 10 percent. If you are lending money, then, based on effective interest rates, you should prefer to lend at a 10 percent nominal, or quoted, rate but with semiannual payments, rather than at a 10.1 percent nominal rate with annual payments. However, as a borrower you should prefer the annual payment loan. The value of a perpetuity (say for $100 per year) will approach infinity as the interest rate used to evaluate the perpetuity approaches zero. Statements a, b, and c are all true. Statements b and c are true.

Consider two local banks. Bank A has 100 loans outstanding, each for $1.3 million, that it expects will be repaid today. Each loan has a 3% probability of default, in which case the bank is not repaid anything. The chance of default is independent across all the loans. Bank B has only one loan of $130 million outstanding, which it also expects will be repaid today. It also has a 3% probability of not being repaid. Calculate the following: a. The expected overall payoff of each bank. b. The standard deviation of the overall payoff of each bank. a. The expected overall payoff of each bank. The expected overall payoff of Bank A is $ decimal places.) million. (Round to two

Please provide explanation.

Consider two local banks. Bank A has 83 loans outstanding, each for $1.0 million, that it expects will be repaid today. Each loan has a 3% probability of default, in which case the bank is not repaid anything. The chance of default is independent across all the loans. Bank B has only one loan of $83 million outstanding, which it also expects will be repaid today. It also has a 3% probability of not being repaid. Which bank faces less risk? Why? (Select the best choice below.) O A. The expected payoff is higher for Bank A, but is riskier. I prefer Bank B. B. The expected payoffs are the same, but Bank A is less risky. I prefer Bank A. C. The expected payoffs are the same, but Bank A is riskier. I prefer Bank B. D. In both cases, the expected loan payoff is the same: $83 million x 0.97 = $80.5 million. Consequently, I don't care which bank I own.

If money is not an economic resource, why is interest paid and received for its use? What considerations account for the fact that interest rates differ greatly on various types of loans? Use those considerations to explain the relative sizes of the interest rates on the following:a. A 10-year $1000 government bond.b. A $20 pawnshop loan.c. A 30-year mortgage loan on a $145,000 house.d. A 24-month $12,000 commercial bank loan to finance the purchase of an automobile.e. A 60-day $100 loan from a personal finance company.

.You are negotiating to make a 7-year loan of $25,000 to Breck Inc.  To repay you, Breck will pay $2,500 at the end of Year 1, $5,000 at the end of Year 2, and $7,500 at the end of Year 3, plus a fixed but currently unspecified cash flow, X, at the end of each year from Year 4 through Year 7.  Breck is essentially riskless, so you are confident the payments will be made.  You regard 8% as an appropriate rate of return on a low risk but illiquid 7-year loan.  What cash flow must the investment provide at the end of each of the final 4 years, that is, what is X?

Suppose your bank manager quoted you a 14% annual percentage interest rate on a loan that you need obtain urgently, he stated further that he would be charging the interest rate on the loan, on a bimonthly (every two) basis, what is the Effective Annual Rate that you would be paying?

If you could pay for your mortgage forever, how much would you have to pay per month for a $1,000,000 mortgage, at a 6.5% annual interest rate? Work out the answer (a) if the 6.5% is a bank APR quote and (b) if the 6.5% is a true effective annual rate of return.
