Total Equity Question

You have a customer that has:


LMV = Debit + Equity = 120,000


debit= 40,000 (Interest is paid on debit balance)


SMV= Credit - Equity = 160,000


credit =260,000 (but can be off set by credit balance


THE CREDIT BALANCE EXCEEDS THE DEBIT BALANCE NO INTEREST IS CHARGED

The Margin Formula (LMV & SMV)


LMV = DR + Equity




SMV = Cr - Equity

Total Equity Calculation


LMV - 160,000 = 60,000 + _______


SMV = 50,000 = 40,000 - _________


Total

LMV = E = 100,000


SMV = E = -10,000




Total 90,000



In a Long account


(Market Value)

As market value rises, Equity Rises




As Market value falls, Equity Falls



In a Short account


(Market Value)

As market value rises, Equity decreases




As Market value falls, Equity increases

SMA


Steps

SMA is also referred to as excess equity / or the amount the equity exceeds Reg T of the MV (for test it is 50%)


Find Equity


Find The Reg T Mkt value


Subtract Reg T Amount from the Equity





Figure SMA


LMV = 90,000


DR = 30,000




SMV = 80,000


CR = 150,000

90,000 = 30,000 + 60,000


45-60 = 15




80,000 = 150,000 - 70,000


40-70 = 30




SMA = 45,000



SMA = you don't lose it.....


&


Affect

until you use it




Increase -Long account- when mkt value increases


When selling stock


When cash dividends and interest are received


Short account-when mkt value increases


Stock is sold


Cash dividends are paid to the acct





The SMA in a short account increases when
The market value falls

Using SMA
Can use for any reason including Purchase more stock and even purchase options
Purchasing Power

If purchasing stock can buy twice as much stock as there is in SMA (called buying power)

Minimum Maintenance Requirement

The very least amount of Equity that an account can have based on keeping the mkt value the same but taking a loan from a broker dealer


Long acct: LMV X 25%


Short acct: SMV X 30%

Minimum Maintenance Shows

Compare what the equity is to what it should be


How Long can the equity go?


Maintenance Margin Call Occurs when

The mkt is moving against the client and the mkt value is getting to close to the balance in the account (debit or credit) and causes the equity to go below the minimum maintenance level




Maintenance Margin Call

LM = DR / 75%




SM = CR / 130%

Margin Call can be used in three different ways

Reg T Margin Call - client is buying or shorting Reg 50% / Intial


When will there be a margin maintenance call? Divide


What is the margin call? Multiply





Mark to the Market

Occurs for margin accounts only not for accrued interest


S firm Marks to the market daily
