Answer:

$196448

Explanation:

Since the central bank has increased the money supply by $231115 but the reserve ratio is maintained at 15%, this means that 85% of the money is being injected in the form of money supply.

Hence, the maximum increase in money supply, the 85% of $231115 is: $196448.

Hope this helps.

Thank you and Good luck.

Answer:

$1541537.05

Explanation:

Calculate the money multiplier

   = 1/ reserve ratio

reserve ratio = 15% = 0.15

therefore the money multiplier = 1/0.15 = 6.6666 ≈ 6.67

to calculate the maximum increase in money supply would be

money multiplier * excess reserve added

6.67 * $231115 = $1541537.05

since there is an increase in money supply by the central bank and this resulted in an additional $231115 in excess reserve hence the maximum increase in money supply will be $1541537.05

Answer:

The answer to this question is A. Interaction between a private party and another private party

Explanation:

A free market economy, otherwise known as a capitalist economy is one that is controlled by private individuals with little or no government control.

Talja [164]

Answer:

Payoff = $2 per share.

Explanation:

In a put option, the long (the party that buy the put) will have gain on the option when the underlying asset price is lower than the excercise price of that asset <em>(imagine the advantage that you can sell a chicken at $12 when it market price of is is only 10)</em>.

Because the stock price is $91, lower than exercise price of 93, so the company should exercise the put. Total payoff per share is 93 - 91 = $2.

<em>Note: We dont include premium to buy the put here because the question asking about payoff. We on include premium in calculations when the question is about profit.</em>

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Answer to this is both option (i) and option (iii).

Explanation:

Change in technology generally affects the change in productivity as well as the change in labor demand. In the case of Labor-augmenting (improving) technology, it is found that the positive change in technology leads to the increasing marginal productivity of labor. This increase of marginal productivity of labor shifts the labor-demand curve towards right. Thus, Labor-augmenting (improving) technology causes marginal productivity of labor to increase which further leads to shifting of the labor-demand curve towards right.
