Answer:

B. Decreases both the money multiplier and the money supply

Explanation:

An increase in reserve requirement decreases the amount of excess reserves in the banking system. This decrease means that there will also be less money for banks to loan out. this will lead to a reduction in money supply. The money multiplier on the other hand is the how a small deposit can result in a greater increase in money supply in the economy. Money multiplier will also decrease in this case. This is how;

Money multiplier = 1 / reserve requirement .

Based on above equation, if reserve requirement goes up, the overall; fraction will be smaller hence a decrease in money multiplier.

What do you think happens to the price of an object as it goes through a large number of intermediaries?

Mrac [35]

Because the manufacturer is also the entity selling the good or service, prices tend to be lower in a direct distribution channel. Indirect channels, on the other hand, generally see higher prices because of the number of intermediaries involved. The more there are, the higher the price.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Current Yield of bond is 3.53%

Explanation:

Current yield is the ratio of coupon payment of a bond to its current market price.

Formula for Current yield is as follow

Current Yield = Annual Coupon payment / Current market price

First we need to calculate the coupon payment by using following formula

YTM = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ ( F + P ) / 2 ]

5.8%/2 = [ C + ( $1,000 - $1,150 ) / 16 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,150 ) / 2 ]

2.9% = [ C + ( $1,000 - $1,150 ) / 16 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,150 ) / 2 ]

2.9% = [ C - $9.375 ] / $1,075

1,075 x 2.9% = C - $9.375

31.175 = C - 9.375

C = 31.175 + 9.375 = $40.55 annually

Current Yield = Annual Coupon payment / Current market price

Current Yield = $40.55 / $1,150 = 0.0353 = 3.53%
