Suppose the Fed carries out an open market sale of $100m and simultaneously decreases the minimum required reserve ratio from 10

Show the T-account of the banking system before and after these two operations. Do these operations increase the monetary base? Justify your answer.

Answer:

loanable amount after Fed operation = $950 M

Securities after fed operation = $50 M

attached below is the T-account table

Explanation:

Given data:

For assets : securities = $100 M ,  Loans = $800 M

For Liabilities :  Constant demand deposit = $1000 M

difference between the assets and liability = $100 M  and this makes the Banking system unbalanced hence the Banking system needs the intervention of the Fed. and the reduction in the required reserve ratio from 10% to 5% is the right action

How with the reserve ratio reduced to: 0.05

hence required  Minimum required securities after operation = 0.05 * 1000 M = 50 M

Note : Total demand deposits = securities + loanable amount

therefore loanable amount after Fed operation = $1000 M - $50 M = $950

Attached below is the T-table

When both tables are compared it can be seen that there is a significant increase  in the loanable amount after the Fed's operations and increase in Loanable amount transcends to increase in Monetary base

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

<u>fostering competition</u>

Explanation:

By deciding to focus on a particular niche these smaller firms in effect foster competitions among other larger firms.

For example, if in a market for shoes, a small firm A, that is newly established decides to focus only on selling shoes for children after recognizing they cannot match up with an existing larger company B that sells a variety of shoes (both children and adult shoes). At a point in time when a number of small businesses are operating in this manner, the larger companies would recognize and account for their influence on the market.

Suppose you purchased 500 shares of Jet-Electro Corporation stock at a price of $22.50 per share. One year later, the shares are
viva [34]

Answer:

C) 0.0 percent

Explanation:

The net return on any investment is what we receive from the investment in addition to the purchase price paid.

In the given instance the investor pays $22.50 per share as an investment cost, to acquire such shares. Number of shares purchased = 500

Now at the end of the period the shares are sold for $21 each

Also the dividend per share received is $1.50

Thus, total return = $21 + $1.50 = $22.50 per share.

This is exact same as that of the investment price.

Thus net return = Total benefits - Cost = $22.50 - $22.50 = $0

Since net return is $0 the value of return in percentage shall also be $0.
