Interest Rates (Current)
• If interest rates are high, the future payoff to present savings is greater.
• Higher interest rates increase the quantity of available savings (loanable funds).
![Page 14: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Time Preferences
• How much to save depends partly on time preference.
• In deciding to save rather than spend, people effectively reallocate their spending over time.
![Page 18: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Risk
• The interest rate paid on savings is linked to the risk of future nonpayment.
• High risk attaches to high interest rates.
![Page 19: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Risk Management

![Page 20: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Risk Premiums
• Lenders will want to be compensated for any above-average risks they take.
• The risk premium is the difference in rates of return on risky (uncertain) and safe (certain) investments.
![Page 21: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Risk Premiums
• Risk premiums help explain why blue-chip corporations pay a low “prime” rate while ordinary consumers have to pay much higher interest rates.

![Page 34: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Expected Value
• A risk factor is included in present-value computations whenever an anticipated future payment is uncertain.
• This is done by calculating the expected value.
![Page 35: Lecture 17](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/5584adf9d8b42afd5b8b4fd7/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Expected Value
• Expected value is the probable value of a future payment, including the risk of nonpayment.
Expected value = (1 – risk factor) X Present discounted value
