Explanation / Answer

a. how much must you borrow to obtain $250,000 in usable funds? assume you currently do not have any funds on deposit at the bank. what is the effective annual rate on a six month loan? AMount borrowed = X So we have 10%*X+250,000 = X ie X = 250,000/0.90 = $277,778 So Amt borrowe is $277,778 effective annual rate EAR = (1+i/n)^n - 1 = (1+10%/1)^1 - 1 = 10% b. how much must you borrow to obtain $250000 in usable funds if you currently have $10000 on deposit at the bank? what is the effective annual rate on a six month loan? AMount borrowed = X So we have 10%*X+ (250,000-10000) = X ie X = 240,000/0.90 = $266,667 So Amt borrowe is $266,667 effective annual rate EAR = (1+i/n)^n - 1 = (1+10%/1)^1 - 1 = 10% c. how much must you borrow to obtain $250,000 in usable funds if you currently have 30000 on deposit at the bank? AMount borrowed = X So we have 10%*X+ (250,000-30000) = X ie X = 220,000/0.90 = $244,444 So Amt borrowe is $244,444 d. what is the effective annual rate on a six month loan? effective annual rate EAR = (1+i/n)^n - 1 = (1+10%/1)^1 - 1 = 10%
