A single bank is considering two options: First, it can make a $200,000 mortgage loan for a customer with a 10 percent probability of default, or second, it can buy a $200,000 security representing a bundle of 100 mortgage loans, which break down as shown in the table below. You can calculate the weighted risk for each firm category by multiplying the percentage of loans represented (for example, the first tier includes 25 loans, which is 25/100 = 25% of the total) times the probability of default on loans of that category. Instructions: Round your answers to three decimal places. a. Calculate the weighted risk for each type of loan, then add together the weighted risks to come up with an overall expected default risk for this financial investment. Number of Loans 25 25 15 35 Probability of Default (%) 3 12 1.5 5 Weighted Risk N 1%. Adding together the weighted risks, the expected default risk for the security is: b.

A financial institution uses a loan base rate of 4.35% and sets the credit risk premium at 6.68%. The institution charges a 1.5% loan origination fee and imposes 3.22% compensating balances. The required reserves for this institution are 10%. Additionally suppose your institution specifies the following linear probability model to estimate the probability of default: PD=80-8₁ Wealth - B₂Credit Score + B3 Number of Bankruptcies Bo= 10, 109.5 8₁0.10 B₂ = 0.20 B3 = 0.60 Use the information above to answer the question. What is the gross rate of return on the loan? O 9.31% O 11.03% O 12.53% 12.90%
An employee at Azai Bank seeks to evaluate a transaction using the risk-adjusted return on capital (RAROC) model. The transaction entails extending a loan to an agro-based entity with the following details:- The risk-free rate of return is 7%- Loss given default (LGD) = 51%- Exposure at default (EAD) = ZMW 2.5 million- Probability of default (PD) = 40 basis points The bank's economic capital (EC) model assesses an EC charge for the firm, equivalent to 5% of EAD, amounting to ZMW 100,000. Assuming a RAROC hurdle rate of 15%, the transaction yields a net profit of ZMW 14,000 before other adjustments. Tasks:A. Calculate the bank’s risk-adjusted rate of return on the loan to the agricultural company. B. Additionally, consider the scenario where the bank could have extended a loan of the same amount, generating an identical net profit of ZMW 14,000 before adjustments to a pharmaceutical products manufacturing firm, with an EC of 2.5%. C. Determine which loan the bank should prioritize…

Consider an investment that pays off $700 or $1,400 per $1,000 invested with equal probability. Suppose you have $1,000 but are willing to borrow to increase your expected return. What would happen to the expected value and standard deviation of the investment if you borrowed an additional $1,000 and invested a total of $2,000? What if you borrowed $2,000 to invest a total of $3,000? Instructions: Complete the table below to answer the questions above. Enter your responses as whole numbers and enter percentage values as percentages not decimals (i.e., 23% not 0.23). Enter a negative sign (-) to indicate a negative number if necessary.

Suppose the central bank wishes to increase the money supply by $500 million and does so by purchasing one-year zero coupon bonds from an economic agent to increase bank reserves. If the central bank buys bonds with an interest rate of 2.5%, how many bonds must they buy to reach their targeted increase in the money supply? Assume the required reserve ratio is 10% and commercial banks fully loan out. Hint: you will need to use the money multiplier in this answer as well as bond pricing - a zero coupon bond is a promise to pay $1000 in one year. Assume there is no currency in the
Bill Adams wants to compute the bank discount yield of a T-bill. A T-bill with a face value of $100,000 is selling for $96,500. If there are 120 days until maturity, 1) What is its bank discount yield? 2) What is its holding period return? 3) What is its effective annual rate of return? 4) What is the money market yield?
Establish a finance plan that assumes the sales estimates at the take price level would have been increased by $500,000. This means that the current take price level of $9,170,000 would increase by $500,000. This change would offer more collateral to the bank, and the bank would then increase the GAP loan. The GAP loan requires 200% collateral in unsold rights. This change would impact the equity investment. Question: What would be the new equity investment be if the budget stays the same?
