Scenario 1: Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) allow workers to shelter a portion of their income from taxation. Suppose the maximum annual contribution to accounts of this type is $6,000 per person. Now suppose there is an increase in the maximum contribution, from $6,000 to $9,000 per year. Shift the appropriate curve on the graph to reflect this change. This change in the tax treatment of saving causes the equilibrium interest rate in the market for loanable funds tofall and the level of investment spending toincrease . Scenario 2: An investment tax credit effectively lowers the tax bill of any firm that purchases new capital within some relevant time period. Suppose the government implements a new investment tax credit. Shift the appropriate curve on the graph to reflect this change. The implementation of the new tax credit causes the interest rate tofall and the level of saving tofall . Scenario 3: Initially, the government's budget is balanced; then…

Below you will find the Demand and Supply Curves for $250,000 bonds that mature in 18 years: Qd = 400,000 – 2(P) Qs = 3(P) – 100,000 What is the current equilibrium interest rate in that bond market?
Consider a bond without an expiration date that makes a fixed interest payment of $210 per year. Complete the following table by calculating the interest rate on the bond at different sale prices. (Hint: The effective interest rate on a bond is a ratio of the interest payment to the sale price of the bond times 100.) Price of Bond Interest Rate (Dollars) (Percent) 1,200 1,000 750 600 Use the blue points (circle symbol) and the preceding table to plot the relationship between bond prices and interest rates on the following graph. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically. The line showing the relationship between bond prices and interest rates has a _____(POSITIVE/NEGATIVE) slope; in other words, there is _______(INVERSE / A DIRECT) relationship between bond prices and interest rates.

Suppose that the government puts out a tax incentive that encourage people to save more money. Assume that this does not lead to a change in Y* or G, but does lead to a decrease in Consumption. 7. What would we expect to happen to interest rates? Explain your answer. 8. Would this change in interest rates increase or decrease the present value (PV) of the investment that this question is considering? Explain your answer.

. A well-known bank has specialized in adjustable-rate mortgages. They have originated 7 billion USD in adjustable-rate mortgages. This bank generally raises money by borrowing with shorter term loans and issuing fixed-interest rate Certificates of Deposit. The bank has 6 billion in short-term adjustable-rate loans to partly help fund the loan portfolio. The federal reserve has announced an increase in their target interest rate of 50 basis points (0.5%). What is the equation and solution.
Short-term interest rates: fluctuate widely, depending on their terms. tend to move together. always move in the same direction as long-term interest rates. are always above long-term interest rates.
