(Fair Value Option) Fallen Company commonly issues long-term notes payable to its various lenders. Fallen has had a pretty good credit rating such that its effective borrowing rate is quite low (less than 8% on an annual basis). Fallen has elected to use the fair value option for the long-term notes issued to Barclay’s Bank and has the following data related to the carrying and fair value for these notes. Any changes in fair value are due to changes in market rates, not credit risk. Carrying Value Fair Value December 31, 2017 $54,000 $54,000 December 31, 2018 44,000 42,500 December 31, 2019 36,000 38,000 Instructions(a) Prepare the journal entry at December 31 (Fallen’s year-end) for 2017, 2018, and 2019, to record the fair value option for these notes.(b) At what amount will the note be reported on Fallen’s 2018 balance sheet?(c) What is the effect of recording the fair value option on these notes on Fallen’s 2019 income?(d) Assuming that general market interest rates…
Suppose a bank currently has $250,000 in deposits and $27,000 in reserves. The required reserve ratio is 10%. If at the end of the day, there is an unexpected withdrawal of $4,000 in reserves, what is the bank's resulting reserve ratio (expressed as a %)? Using the information from the prior problem, how much would the bank need to borrow in either the Fed Funds market or at the discount window, to be in complicance with the required reserve ratio?
Suppose a company is choosing between bank loans and bonds. The interest rate in the bank loan is 3.5%, and an investment bank predicted that the company will pay close to 4% to issue a bond with the same maturity. In addition, fees are estimated to be higher for the bond issuance than for the bank loan. Explain why this company may still decide to issue the bond rather than borrowing through a bank.
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 $☐ million. (Round to two decimal places.)
When firms enter into loan agreements with their bank, it is very common for the agreement to have a restriction on the minimum current ratio the firm has to maintain. So, it is important that the firm be aware of the effects of their decisions on the current ratio. Consider the situation of Advanced Autoparts (AAP) in 2009. The firm had total current assets of $1,907,570,000 and current liabilities of $1,362,550,000. a. What is the firm's current ratio? b. If the firm were to expand its investment in inventory and finance the expansion by increasing accounts payable, how much could it increase its inventory without reducing the current ratio below 1.2? c. If the company needed to raise its current ratio to 1.5 by reducing its investment in current assets and simultaneously reducing accounts payable and short-term debt, how much would it have to reduce current assets to accomplish this goal?
