4、 of Gold Appendix 3:Loanable Funds Framework Appendix 4:Supply and Demand in the Market for Money:The Liquidity Preference Framework As is clear in the Preface to the textbook,I believe that financial markets and institutions is taught effectively by emphasizing a few analytic principles and then ap

5、plying them over and over again to the subject matter of this exciting field.Chapter 4 introduces one of these basic principles:the determinants of asset demand.It indicates that there are four primary factors that influence peoples decisions to hold assets:wealth,expected returns,risk,and liquidity

6、.The simple idea that these four factors explain the demand for assets is,in fact,an extremely powerful one.It is used continually throughout the study of financial markets and institutions and makes it much easier for the student to understand how interest rates are determined,how financial institu

7、tions manage their assets and liabilities,why financial innovation takes place,how prices are determined in the stock market and the foreign exchange market.Chapter 4 Why Do Interest Rates Change?17 One teaching device that I have found helps students develop their intuition is the use of summary ta

8、bles,such as Table 1,in class.I use the blackboard to write a list of changes in variables that affect the demand for an asset and then ask students to fill in the table by reasoning how demand responds to each change.This exercise gives them good practice in developing their analytic abilities.I us

9、e this device continually throughout my course and in this book,as is evidenced from similar summary tables in later chapters.I recommend this approach highly.The rest of Chapter 4 lays out a partial equilibrium approach to the determination of interest rates using the supply and demand in the bond

10、market.An important feature of the analysis in this chapter is that supply and demand is always done in terms of stocks of assets,not in terms of flows.Recent literature in the professional journals almost always analyzes the determination of prices in financial markets with an asset-market approach

11、:that is,stocks of assets are emphasized rather than flows.The reason for this is that keeping track of stocks of assets is easier than dealing with flows.Correctly conducting analysis in terms of flows is very tricky,for example,when we encounter inflation.Thus there are two reasons for using a sto

12、ck approach rather than a flow approach:(1)it is easier,and(2)it is more consistent with modern treatment of asset markets by financial economists.Another important feature of this chapter is that it lays out supply and demand analysis of the bond market at a similar level to that found in principle

13、s of economics textbooks.The ceteris paribus derivations of supply and demand curves with numerical examples are presented,the concept of equilibrium is carefully developed,the factors that shift the supply and demand curves are outlined,and the distinction between movements along a demand or supply

14、 curve and shifts in the curve is clearly drawn.My feeling is that the step-by-step treatment in this chapter is worthwhile because supply and demand analysis is such a basic tool throughout the study of financial markets and institutions.I have found that even those students who have had excellent

15、training in earlier courses find that this chapter provides a valuable review of supply and demand analysis.An additional innovative feature of the book that first appears in this chapter are the special applications,“Case:the Wall Street Journal.”These cases show students how the analytical framewo

16、rk in the book can be used directly to understand the daily columns in the United States leading financial newspaper.The students particularly like the case on reading the credit markets column because it shows them that the concepts developed in the chapter are actually used in the real world.In te

17、aching my class,I bring the previous days Wall Street Journal columns into class and then use them to conduct a case discussion along the lines of the“Case:the Wall Street Journal“in the text.My students very much like the resulting case discussions and have told me that they are better than case di

18、scussions in other classes because the material is so current.The Practicing Manager application at the end of the chapter shows how interest rate forecasts can be used by managers of financial institutions to increase profits.This application shows students how the analysis they have learned is use

19、ful in the real world.This chapter has an extensive set of appendices on the web to enhance its material.Appendix 1 provides models of asset pricing in case and instructor wants to make use of the capital asset pricing model or the arbitrage pricing model in this course.Appendix 2 shows how the anal

20、ysis developed in the chapter can be applied to understanding how any assets price is determined.Students particularly like the application to the gold market because this commodity piques almost everybodys interest.Appendix 3 provides an another interpretation of the supply and demand analysis for

21、bonds using a different terminology involving the supply and demand for loanable funds.Appendix 4 provides an alternative approach to interest rate determination developed by John Maynard Keynes,known as the liquidity preference framework.18 Mishkin/Eakins Financial Markets and Institutions,Sixth Ed

23、our wealth has increased;b.more,because it has become more liquid;c.less,because its expected return has fallen relative to Polaroid stock;d.more,because it has become less risky relative to stocks;e.less,because its expected return has fallen.3.True,because the benefits to diversification are great

24、er for a person who cares more about reducing risk.4.Purchasing shares in the pharmaceutical company is more likely to reduce my overall risk because the correlation of returns on my investment in a football team with the returns on the pharmaceutical company shares should be low.By contrast,the cor

25、relation of returns on an investment in a football team and an investment in a basketball team are probably pretty high,so in this case there would be little risk reduction if I invested in both.5.True,because for a risk averse person,more risk,a lower expected return and less liquidity make a secur

26、ity less desirable.6.When the Fed sells bonds to the public,it increases the supply of bonds,thus shifting the supply curve Bs to the right.The result is that the intersection of the supply and demand curves Bs and Bd occurs at a lower equilibrium bond price and thus a higher equilibrium interest ra

27、te,and the interest rate rises.7.When the economy booms,the demand for bonds increases:the publics income and wealth rises while the supply of bonds also increases,because firms have more attractive investment opportunities.Both the supply and demand curves(Bd and Bs)shift to the right,but as is ind

28、icated in the text,the demand curve probably shifts less than the supply curve so the equilibrium interest rate rises.Similarly,when the economy enters a recession,both the supply and demand curves shift to the left,but the demand curve shifts less than the supply curve so that the bond price rises

29、and the interest rate falls.The conclusion is that bond prices fall and interest rates rise during booms and fall during recessions:that is,interest rates are procyclical.8.Interest rates fall.The increased volatility of gold prices makes bonds relatively less risky relative to gold and causes the d

30、emand for bonds to increase.The demand curve,Bd,shifts to the right and the equilibrium bond price rises and the interest rate falls.9.Interest rates would rise.A sudden increase in peoples expectations of future real estate prices raises the expected return on real estate relative to bonds,so the d

31、emand for bonds falls.The demand curve Bd shifts to the left,and the equilibrium bond price falls,so the interest rate rises.Chapter 4 Why Do Interest Rates Change?19 10.Interest rates might rise.The large federal deficits require the Treasury to issue more bonds;thus the supply of bonds increases.T

32、he supply curve,Bs,shifts to the right and the equilibrium bond price falls and the interest rate rises.Some economists believe that when the Treasury issues more bonds,the demand for bonds increases because the issue of bonds increases the publics wealth.In this case,the demand curve,Bd,also shifts

33、 to the right,and it is no longer clear that the equilibrium bond price or interest rate will rise.Thus there is some ambiguity in the answer to this question.11.The increased riskiness of bonds lowers the demand for bonds.The demand curve shifts to the left and the equilibrium bond price falls and

34、the interest rate rises.12.The increased riskiness of bonds lowers the demand for bonds.The demand curve Bd shifts to the left,the equilibrium bond price falls and the interest rate rises.13.Yes,interest rates will rise.The lower commission on stocks makes them more liquid than bonds,and the demand

35、for bonds will fall.The demand curve Bd will therefore shift to the left,and the equilibrium bond price falls and the interest rate will rise.14 If the public believes the presidents program will be successful,interest rates will fall.The presidents announcement will lower expected inflation so that

36、 the expected return on goods decreases relative to bonds.The demand for bonds increases and the demand curve,Bd,shifts to the right.For a given nominal interest rate,the lower expected inflation means that the real interest rate has risen,raising the cost of borrowing so that the supply of bonds fa

37、lls.The resulting leftward shift of the supply curve,Bs,and the rightward shift of the demand curve,Bd,causes the equilibrium bond price to rise and the interest rate to fall.15.The interest rate on the AT&T bonds will rise.Because people now expect interest rates to rise,the expected return on long

38、-term bonds such as the 188s of 2022 will fall,and the demand for these bonds will decline.The demand curve Bd will therefore shift to the left,and the equilibrium bond price falls and the interest rate will rise.16.Interest rates will rise.The expected increase in stock prices raises the expected r

39、eturn on stocks relative to bonds and so the demand for bonds falls.The demand curve,Bd,shift to the left and the equilibrium bond price falls and the interest rate rises.17.Interest rates will rise.When bond prices become volatile and bonds become riskier,the demand for bonds will fall.The demand c

40、urve Bd will shift to the left,and the equilibrium bond price falls and the interest rate will rise.1.You own a$1,000-par zero-coupon bond that has 5 years of remaining maturity.You plan on selling the bond in one year,and believe that the required yield next year will have the following probability
