it is The Federal Reserve System

Explanation:

The Federal Reserve System is the central bank of the United States. It was founded by Congress in 1913 to provide the nation with a safer, more flexible, and more stable monetary and financial system. Over the years, its role in banking and the economy has expanded. It performs five general functions to promote the effective operation of the U.S. economy and, more generally, the public interest.

Ralph buys a perpetuity due paying 500 annually. He deposits the payments into a savings account earning interest at an effectiv

Leto [7]

Answer:

X = 1523

Explanation

Perpetuity due = (C/r) + C. Where Annual payment C =500, Annual effective interest rate = 10%

Perpetuity due = (500/10%) + 500 = 5500

Value of perpetuity due will remain same after 10 years

Money in saving account can be calculated with FV of an Annuity due formula

FV = C*(1+r) *{(1+r) ^n−1} / r

Where n = 10 years

FV = 500*(1+10%) * {(1+10%)^10 - 1} / 10%

FV = 500*1.10 * [1.10^10 - 1 / 0.10}

FV = 550 * 1.5937424601/0.10

FV = 550 * 15.937424601

FV = 8765.58353055

FV = 8766

Total proceeds = 5500 + 8766 = 14266

Now this proceed is the present value for annual payment of X calculation . Formula of the present value (PV) of annuity due: PV = X * [1- (1+r) ^-n / r] * (1+r) : Where PV = 14266, Annuity payment X = ?, Interest rate r = 10%, Period of annuity = 20 years.

1.10^-20

PV = X * [1- (1+r)^-n / r] * (1+r)

14266 = X * (1 - (1+10%)^-20 / 10%) * (1+10%)

14266 = X * [1 - 0.14864362802/0.10]*1.10

14266 = X * [8.5135637198*1.10]

14266 = X * 9.3649

X = 14266 / 9.3649

X = 1523.347820051469

X = 1523

The demand for salt is inelastic, and the supply of salt is elastic. The demand for caviar is elastic, and the supply of caviar

stellarik [79]

Answer:

<h2>In the case of the salt,the salt buyers would bear most of the tax burden and for caviar,the sellers would bear most of the tax burden.Hence,the correct answer is option b. or buyers of salt and the sellers of caviar.</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

In the case of salt,the supply is more elastic than the demand which implies that the salt sellers are relatively more responsive to salt price change in the market.Therefore,if any tax is imposed on them,it would basically translate into higher production cost for the sellers and due to price elasticity of supply,the sellers would pass the tax to the salt consumers who are comparatively less price sensitive.Now,since the consumer demand for salt is inelastic and the consumers are relatively price insensitive,the consumers won't perhaps mind paying a higher market price for salt including the extra tax.Hence,in this instance,the tax burden would fall on the salt buyers or consumers.

On the other hand,based on the same line of argument,the tax burden would fall on the sellers of caviars as the price elasticity of caviar supply is less than that of the caviar demand.In this case,the caviar sellers are less sensitive about changes in market price of caviars and thus,won't mind paying a relatively higher production cost/expense which is inclusive of the tax burden.Due to higher price elasticity of demand or price responsiveness,the cavier consumers would be reluctant to bear the tax burden and pass it onto the sellers.
