Answer:

a. Dan saves a portion of his income in an interest-earning account. In the loanable funds market, Dan is a supplier of loanable funds.

b. John owns a pizzeria and needs to borrow money for a new oven. In the loanable funds market, John is a demander of loanable funds.

c. Savers like Dan are likely to save more when the real interest rate increases. Therefore, the supply curve for loanable funds slopes upwards.

d. Borrowers like John are likely to borrow more when the real interest rate decreases. Therefore, the demand curve for loanable funds slopes downwards.

Explanation:

a. Savers who invest their money in interest‑earning accounts are providing funds for others to borrow. They act as suppliers of loanable funds.

b. Borrowers are demanders of loanable funds. They often use these funds to expand productive capacity and pay interest for the use of the funds to the lender.

c. Savers offer their funds as loans and receive interest in return. Therefore, savers have an incentive to save more as the interest rate increases, since they thereby receive a higher return. The supply curve for loanable funds slopes upwards as a result.

d. Borrowers have an incentive to borrow more as interest rates fall, since as the cost of borrowing decreases, capital projects become more profitable. The demand curve for loanable funds slopes downwards as a result.

Why do you think the United States put a limit on the number of immigrants who may enter the country?

eimsori [14]

Immigration law is very complex, and there is much confusion as to how it works. The Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA), the body of law governing current immigration policy, provides for an annual worldwide limit of 675,000 permanent immigrants, with certain exceptions for close family members. Lawful permanent residency allows a foreign national to work and live lawfully and permanently in the United States. Lawful permanent residents (LPRs) are eligible to apply for nearly all jobs (i.e., jobs not legitimately restricted to U.S. citizens) and can remain in the country even if they are unemployed. Each year the United States also admits noncitizens on a temporary basis. Annually, Congress and the President determine a separate number for refugee admissions.

At a DUI checkpoint, some cars are stopped at random; many others are not stopped. Using the terminology of psychological resear

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

a) sample.

Explanation:

When we do research we usually work with populations or samples:

A population refers to all the elements that belong to a set of data.

A sample is a subset of said population. In other words, it refers to some elements that belong to the original set.

In this example, at a DUI checkpoint, some cars are stopped at random. We can see that ALL the cars that pass by the checkpoint would be considered the population (since they are all the elements of the set) and the ones that are stopped are SOME elements that belong to the original set, therefore, they can be considered a sample of all the cars that pass by the checkpoint.
