Question:
To avoid insolvency, regulators decide to provide the bank with \($27\) million in bank capital. Assume that bad news about mortgages is featured in the local newspaper, causing a bank run. As a result, \($40\) million in deposits is withdrawn. Show the effects of the capital injection and the bank run on the balance sheet. Was the capital injection enough to stabilize the bank? If the bank regulators decide that the bank needs a capital ratio of 10% to prevent further runs on the bank, how much of an additional capital injection is required to reach a 10% capital ratio?
