9. The banker’s optimization problem has three dimensions… As a competitive firm, the bank must choose prices (interest rates) to maximize profits) As a portfolio manager, a bank must choose a portfolio composition to minimize risk As a financial intermediary, a bank must solve the informational problems that exist between borrowers and lenders (moral hazard and adverse selection)

10. Most of the informational problems that exist between the bank and potential depositors have been solved through regulation and insurance (FDIC), but the bank must still deal with the moral hazard and adverse selection problems associated with its loan customers  Diversification  Loan Covenants  Credit Rationing (Credit Limits)  Credit Scoring

11. Credit scoring is an attempt to estimate loan default rates based on observable characteristics. The most common credit score was developed by Fair/Isaac Co. and is known as your FICO number (300 – 850) These are NOT in a FICO Score  How you pay your bills (35%)  Amount of Debt/Amount of Available Credit (30%)  Length of Credit History (15%)  Mix of Credit (Types of Loans) (10%)  Applications for new credit (10%) Key Components of FICO Score  Age  Race  Employment  Income  Education  Marital Status To estimate your FICO score, click hereclick here

13. As a competitive firm, the bank must choose prices (interest rates) to maximize profits) A bank makes its profits from the spread between the interest rate it charges on loans and the interest rate it pays on deposits (Interest rate on loans) (Quantity of loans) – (Quantity of Deposits) (Interest paid on deposits) Profits Note: This is ignoring income from fees!

However, a highly leveraged firm carries more risk!

21. Lets assume that you have the only bank in town. You offer one type of loan – a 30 year $100,000 fixed APR mortgage. You offer savings accounts that pay 3% interest per year.

22. You have monthly fixed costs equal to $20,000. Further, you have annual administrative costs equal to 1% of your total funds raised. Let Q = Total Number of Loans $20,000 Fixed CostInterest Cost Administrative Costs For example, if you want to create 3 mortgages, you will need to raise $300,000 in deposits that will earn $9,000 per year (3% of $300,000) and incur $3,000 (1% of $300,000) in administrative expenses. Total Monthly Cost = $20,000 + $750 + $250 = $21,000 Total Monthly Costs + $100,000.03 12 Q+ $100,000.01 12 Q

23. Let Q = Total Number of Loans $20,000Total Monthly Costs + $100,000.04 12 Q Cost # of Loans $20,000 Slope = $333.33 $21,000 3 Fixed Costs Variable Costs =

24. You have estimated the demand for mortgages to be as follows: Q = 155.0 - 624 ( r ) – 90.4 ( UR ) Interest Rate Charged Unemployment Rate For example, if you set your mortgage rate at 6% (.06) and the local unemployment rate is 5% (.05), you will be able to sell 113 mortgages Q = 155.0 - 624 (.06) – 90.4 (.05) = 113 Your total annual revenues would be $100,000 (113)(.06) = $678,000

25. Q = 115.0 - 624 ( r ) – 90.4 ( UR ) # of Loans Interest Rate UR = 5% 113 6% r = 115 624 1 Q 90.4 624 UR -- (Demand) OR r = 155 624 1 (113) 90.4 624 (.05) -- (Inverse Demand) =.06

26. Elasticity of Demand refers to the responsiveness of demand to price changes (here, the price is the interest rate) Q = 155.0 - 624 ( r ) – 90.4 ( UR ) # of Loans Interest Rate UR = 5% 113 6%

27. Revenue Maximization…. Total Revenues = Q($100,000)r = Q = 155 - 624 ( r ) – 90.4 ( UR ) $100,000155 r- 642 r 2 - 90.4 (UR) r Maximizing Total Revenues involves taking the derivative with respect to the interest rate and setting it equal to zero… 155- 2 (624) r- 90.4 (UR)= 0 Solving for r … r = 155 – 90.4(UR) 2 (624)

28. r = 155 – 90.4(.05) 2 (624) If the unemployment rate is equal to 5%, the revenue maximizing loan rate is 12.05% # of Loans UR = 5% 75 12.05% =.1205 = 155 - 624 (.1205 ) – 90.4 (.05 ) Revenues = $100,000 (75)(.1205) = $903,750 Total Revenues

29. Profit Maximization… Total Revenues = Q ($100,000) r = 155 624 1 Q 90.4 624 UR -- Total Monthly Revenues 155 624 1 Q 90.4 624 UR -- $100,000 Q 2 Q= Total Monthly Revenues = $24,840 - $14,487 UR QQ - 160 2 r 12 $100,000 12 $100,000 12 (Monthly)

30. Total Monthly Revenues = $2,070 - $1,207 URQQ - 13.3 2 Profit Maximization… Quantity $ $100,000*Demand MR Marginal Revenue is the derivative of Total Revenue with respect to Q Marginal Revenues = Q - 26.6$2,070 - $1,207 UR

31. $20,000Total Monthly Costs + $100,000.04 12 Q= Profit Maximization… Marginal Cost is the derivative of Total Cost with respect to Q $ Quantity Marginal Costs $333.33= Total Costs

32. Profit Maximization… Profits = Total Revenues – Total Costs UR =.05 Q=63 Maximization Condition Marginal Revenues = Marginal Costs $333.33= r = 155 624 1 Q 90.4 624 UR -- =.1412 (14. 12%) Solving for Q Q - 26.6$2,070 - $1,207 UR

33. Quantity $ $100,000*Demand MC MR 63 14.1% Profits = Total Revenues – Total Costs $20,000Total Monthly Costs + $100,000.04 12 63= - = $41,000 Total Monthly Revenues = $100,000(63)(.1412)/12 = $74,130 $33,130Profits = Annual Profit = $397,560

34. Over time, more banks move into the area…..

35. Elasticity of Demand refers to the responsiveness of demand to price changes – as number of banks increases, demand becomes more elastic Q = 155 - 624 ( r ) – 90.4 ( UR ) Q Interest Rate This number gets bigger! More elastic Less elastic

36. Q = 155 - 624 ( r ) – 90.4 ( UR ) Q Interest Rate This number gets bigger! Demand MC MR As Demand Becomes more elastic… The Spread between price (interest rate) and costs decreases Quantity increases Profits decrease Q r

37. As long as there are profits to be made, more banks enter the area. Eventually, price = marginal costs and profits drop to zero.
