Speed-read the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (2010). Do you think it will prevent a financial crisis like the one in 2007-08? What does consumer protection have to do with that crisis? What happened to banks that were allegedly "too big to fail?" Does it affect large banks and small community banks the same way? Who bears the costs? Make your case for over- or right-sized regulation.

QUESTION 13

SECTION 1
Because deflation is so costly, some have argued that setting an inflation target at 2 percent is too low and it should be set higher, to 3 percent, especially in the economic environment of 2007–2010.

1. Consider the impact of such an increase in the inflation target using the AD/AS framework in the short and long run. Begin your analysis in the long-run equilibrium.
2. How would you change your answer if expectations are rational and the FED is credible?

I have figured out the risk premium and average risk premium for the question below. I'm having trouble figuring out what the standard deviation of the risk premium is. 2006 18.67 7.50 2007 9.01 7.16 2008 −39.83 2.80 2009 30.90 0.80 2010 20.56 0.92 The average risk premium is 4.03% but can't figure out how to calculate standard deviation of the risk premium.

Yes, an excel function will do.

Thank you.

1. The first bitcoin transaction was conducted on January 12th 2009. In its early days, the value of bitcoins were practically zero (In March 2010, a user auctioned 10,000 bitcoins for a total of $50 but no buyer was found.)
