There are two different types of companies in the market: Good companies earning a rate of return of 6% for sure. Bad companies earning a rate of return of either 0% or 16% with equal chance.

Repeat for the case of 6% interest rate on loans. The expected return for the bank would then be %.

Economics The next two questions are about interacting with people during COVID. When we encounter another person these days, we would like to know how likely it is that they have COVID-19 before we get too close. While many people with COVID-19 don't know they have it, they do know how careful they tend to be (whether they avoid crowds, etc.). So this is a case of asymmetric information - they know how careful they are, and you don't. Further, assume that people who are less-careful are annoyed by people not wanting to meet them, and would like to be perceived as being more-careful. What would our model of asymmetric information tell us might happen if we have no idea how careful the person we're about to meet is being? An inefficiently high number of meetings would occur Everyone would start being extra-careful about COVID Increasingly, people would refuse to meet with anyone, whether they're actually careful or not We'd assume that everyone we meet is being careful about COVID

Question The financial crisis of 2007 through 2010 was not limited to the United States. The ABCPs and CDOs were purchased internationally by both institutional and individual investors. There were similar devastating results, with foreign bank failures and declining stock values. As well there was a "De-Leveraging" of foreign financial institutions, as assets needed to be sold "liquidated" to cover debt maturity dates because the credit markets were frozen. At the same time a "currency crisis" was building, as investors were transferring huge amounts of capital into preceived "safer" currencies such as the Yen, Swiss Franc and the U.S. Dollar. This had significant effect to emerging countries, who had to go to the international monetary fund for assistance. Is a country always worse off when its currency is weakened (falls in value)? During the flight to safety experienced at the end of 2008 the U.S. Dollar gained in value against the Euro and the British Pound. What effects did this…

Suppose that there is a credit market imperfection due to asymmetric information. In the economy, a fraction b of consumers consists of lenders, who each receive an endowment of y units of the consumption good in the current period and 0 units in the future period. A fraction (1-b)a of consumers are good borrowers who each receive an endowment of 0 units in the current period and y units in the future period. Finally, a fraction (1-b)(1-a) of consumers are bad borrowers who receive 0 units of endowment in the current and future periods. Banks cannot distinguish between good and bad borrowers. The government sets G=G' = 0, and each consumer is asked to pay a lump-sum tax of t in the current period and t' in the future period. The government also cannot distinguish between good and bad borrowers but can observe endowments. a. Write down the government's budget constraint, making sure to take account of who is able to pay their taxes and who does not. The government's budget constraint in…
