Question:
Calculate the existing Dollar Gap for the bank. Next, calculate the effect (change) on this bank's Net Interest
Income if interest rates fall or decrease by 1 percentage point or 100 bp. "%" denotes either the current
interest rate earned earned or paid on the designated asset or liability category. RSA and RSL denote interest
rate sensitive assets and liabilities, respectively, that are repriced within one year. Note, you do not have to
include either the existing or new level of Net Interest Income, as I'm only asking for the change in Net Interest
Income. Please show your work in order to receive credit.
