A competitive lender makes loans to a pool of borrowers that are identical. After borrowers have received their loans they choose one of two investment projects. with probability Pg. With probability 1 – Pg, Project G pays a rate of return of -1, the borrower defaults on the loan, and the lender receives Project G pays the borrower a rate of return of r. nothing. Project B pays the borrower a rate of return of rB with probability pp. And with probability 1 – Pb, Project B pays a rate of return of -1, the borrower defaults on the loan, and the lender receives nothing. Pb, and P,(1+ rg) > Po(1+ rb). Suppose rg 0.98, pr = 0.4, rp = 0.02, L = 1. We assume as usual that rg 0.10, rb 0.12, Pg %3D The lender can't distinguish between borrower types and so it charges all borrowers the same interest rate rL. The lender lends an amount L and pays interest rp on funds acquired from depositors. Round your answer to at least three decimal places.

APR will always be greater than the EAR. iii. We can find the nominal interest rate by adding the default and maturity premiums to the sum of the real rate and inflation. O A. ii and i only O B. i and ii only OC. i only O D. i, ii, and iii
The NPV profile: O A. shows the payback period the point at which NPV is positive. O B. shows the internal rate of return the point at which NPV is zero. OC. shows the NPV over a range of discount rates. O D. B and C are correct.
