Assignment 3 2024
Detailed Solutions, References & Explanations

Unique number:

Due Date: 15 August 2024
QUESTION 1

1.1.

To be 99% sure that the bank will have positive equity at the end of the year, we need to
find the value X where the profit plus equity is greater than zero, given the normal
distribution parameters.

Mean=0.8%

Standard deviation=2%

The z-value for 99% confidence is 2.33.

X=Mean+(z × Standard deviation)

X=0.8%+(2.33×2%)

X=0.8%+4.66%

X=5.46% Terms of use

X=0.8%+(2.33×2%)

X=0.8%+4.66%

X=5.46%

Therefore, the bank needs 5.46% equity as a percentage of assets to be 99% sure it
will have positive equity at the end of the year.
