Below is the income statement of Ally bank as of 2014Q4. Calculate net income and assess if capital plan can be approved under 4 quarters of stressed period.

1. Calculate net income

2. Allys risk-weighted assets are 130,590, and tier 1 capital is 12,588. Basel III requires Tier 1 common ratio to be at least 5 percent. Does Ally meet this requirement in 2014?

3. Suppose we do stress tests for the next 4 quarters for Ally bank. The economic capital needed for the next 4 quarters are the following: 2500, 2704, 3500, 4098. As for PPNR, the model predicts that Allys net income over the next 4 quarters will drop by 10% every quarter. If Ally does not have dividends and stock repurchase plan for 2015, can Ally pass the stress tests? We assume risk-weighted assets do not change over the stress tests.

4. How much room does Ally bank have for capital distribution over the 4 quarters?
