1 FINANCE 305 Financial Markets, Institutions, and Economic Activity Fall 2010 Course Aims and Objective The objective of this course is to provide students with a better understanding of the financial system and economic environment in which financial management and investment decisions are made. Topics covered include: money and the financial system; financial stability; the regulation of the banking system; money creation and the role of the Federal Reserve; Keynesian theories of aggregate demand and interest rates; New Classical theories of the business cycle; Financial aspects of business cycles; Optimal financial contracting; and Cross country comparisons of law and corporate governance. The course will consider the role of the stock market in shaping the operating decisions (e.g. pricing, production and investment decisions) and financing decisions (e.g. gearing and dividend payout rates) of firms. The course material is fundamental to an understanding of a number of important economic events that have received high media coverage. For example, it should help the student understand the causes, nature and significance of recent financial crises and how they affect the real economy. It should also help the student to evaluate the effectiveness of monetary policy in combating financial crises, inflation, and unemployment. Current events are an extremely important part of the course and students will be expected to read newspapers such as the Financial Times of London or the Wall Street Journal. This will be useful both for exams and the class assignments. Except where noted all reading assignments are in the packet entitled READINGS FOR FINANCE 305 available for purchase in the Business School Copy Center. Class Project The project will consist of formulating a bid for the 13 week and 26 week Treasury bills that are auctioned every Monday throughout the year. Each student will individually write a not more than 3 page (not counting data, appendices, or graphs) double-spaced paper summarizing the logic of their bid, and what they think will happen to short-term interest rates for the remainder of the semester. Your paper must include the following forecasts for both the 13 and 26 week Treasury bills. 1. Discount rates on these two bills for the Monday auction. 2. Price of 13 and 26 week T-bills for the Monday auction. 3. Investment rate for these two bills for the Monday auction. 4. Estimate of the 13 week interest rate for the Monday auction on December 8. The paper is due Thursday, November 12 in class and all estimates will pertain to the auction of Monday, November 16. Papers submitted after November 12 lose 15 points (out of a possible 50 points). This project is designed to evaluate how resourceful you are in carrying out an
2 assignment. Neither I nor the TA will tell you how to make a forecast of these two T-Bill rates. Through your readings of the Financial Times or Wall Street Journal you should be following movements in short-term interest rates, monetary and fiscal policies, and the general economy on a daily basis throughout the semester in order that you get a feel for the supply of and demand for T-bills at the time of the November 16 auction. Formulas that must be used in calculating your answers to (2) and (3) above are as follows. 1. Price based on auction rate for 13-weeks T-Bills R 13 = Rate you forecast for the 13 week T-Bill Price based on auction rate for 26 week T-Bills R 26 = Rate you forecast for the 26 week T-Bill 2. Coupon equivalent (or, investment rate) for 13-week and 26-week T-Bills.
3 This paper must be turned in at the Thursday lecture BEFORE the Monday auction. Auction results can by going to Google typing in Recent Bill Auction Results.
