Answer:
1. Assets is debited for $10,000 as loans.
2. Liabilities is credited for $10,000 as deposits.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as the amount is omitted. The complete question is therefore presented before answering the question as follows:
Suppose banks keep no excess reserves and that all banks are currently meeting the reserve requirement. The Federal Reserve then makes an open market purchase of $10000 from Bank 1.
Use the T-account below to show the result of this transaction for Bank 1, assuming Bank 1 keeps no excess reserves after the transaction.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
Note: See the attached photo for Bank 1's T-Account.
In the attached photo, we can see that:
1. Assets is debited for $10,000 as loans.
2. Liabilities is credited for $10,000 as deposits.

Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": a price increase results in higher profits; otherwise, the market is too narrow.
Explanation:
When firms are interested in acquisitions or mergers they have to determine if the target company is part of a relevant market. The term refers to the competitive conditions that offer the economy where the target company is located. The relevant market also considers the type of product or service the target company offers.
<em>Relevant markets optimal for mergers are those where an increase in prices generates more revenue for firms. If there are too many competitors offering undifferentiated products, the market will not allow organizations to profit from price increases. Those markets, then, are too narrow.</em>
Answer:
- Melba's adjusted basis for the land at the Acquisition date is $625000
- Melba's adjusted basis for the land one year later is $645000
Explanation:
The adjusted basis for a property/land is the net cost of the property after adjusting for factors that might attract tax as related to the land
The adjusted basis for the land at the acquisition date is the net cost of the land at the acquisition date which will be ( $225000 + $400000 ) because that was the net cost of the Land at the date of acquisition before an agreement was later reached by Melba requiring him to pay $400000 plus an interest of 5%
Hence the adjusted basis for the land one year later will be
= ( $225000 + $400000 ) + 5% of $400000
= ( $625000 ) + $20000
= $645000
