What happens to the price of a three-year $1 .000 bond with an 8% coupon when market interest rates change from 8% to 6%?

  1. A price increase of $7.68.
  2. A price decrease of $7.68.
  3. A price increase of $53.84.
  4. A price decrease of $53.84.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The decline in rates will increase the value of bonds already outstanding. Since the market rate initially matched the coupon rate, the value would have been $1000. The calculation of value following the rate decline would be as follows using 6% present value tables.

The price should increase by $53.84.

Methods of accelerating cash collections include all of the following except

  1. Decentralized collections.
  2. Electronic funds transfers.
  3. Compensating balances.
  4. Lockbox systems.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Various methods of accelerating cash collections include decentralized collection outposts (normally one in each Federal Reserve District), electronic funds transfers, centralized banking for all company branches to avoid having to maintain minimum balances in several locations, and lockbox systems. A compensating balance is a minimum average or absolute amount that must be maintained in a bank account. Hence, it is not a means of accelerating cash collections. This requirement means that less cash is available to the depositor.

The Alumnae Corporation was recently quoted terms on a commercial bank loan of 7% discounted interest with a 20% compensating balance. The term of the loan is 1 year. The effective cost of borrowing is (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

  1. 8.75%.
  2. 941%.
  3. 7.53%.
  4. 9.59%.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Assuming a $1,000 loan1 the interest at 7% for 1 year is $70. Hence, the proceeds of the loan are $930 ($1,000--$70). Also, 20% of the note or $2001 cannot be used by the borrower because of the compensating balance requirement. Consequently, only $730 is available for use by the borrower. Paying $70 interest for the use of $730 gives an interest rate of $9.59%_($70÷ $730).

The study package is helpful in passing your exam since the practice questions are copied from real exam. But in order to learn the modules in details you need books.
