Variable and Fixed Rate Loans: Determinants of Borrower Demand

Author

Listed:
  • Collender, Robert N.

Abstract

Farmers and lenders continually make decisions about fixed and variable rate financing. Conditions are derived and illustrated under which risk-averse farmers will choose to borrow more under each type of financing and under which they will prefer each type of financing when debt is unconstrained or predetermined.
