Options:

a. being a lender of last resort

b. being concerned with the stability of the banking system

c. serving as a major bank for the central government

d. setting currency exchange rates

Answer:

D) setting currency exchange rates

Explanation:

The US currently uses a floating exchange rate, which means that the value of the US dollar depends on the supply and demand of the US dollar and not any decision taken by some government entity (including the Fed).

The Fed's four main responsibilities are:

  1. control of the money supply and credit supply
  2. regulation and supervision of financial institutions
  3. serve as a banking and fiscal agent for the US government
  4. supply payment services through depository institutions

If the Fed mailed everyone a $1,000, the effect would be a <u>rise in prices, </u>output, and income.

<h3 /><h3>What happens when money is injected into the economy?</h3>

The Equation of exchange is:

<em>Money supply x Velocity of money = Price level x Quantity of goods and services produced </em>

If the Money supply increases like it will when $1,000 is sent by the Fed to people, the velocity will also rise as people purchase more goods and services.

The Price level and the Quantity produced on the right side of the equation would also have to rise to match the left side. So prices would rise, and so would output.

A company purchases merchandise with a catalog price of $30,000. The company receives a 40% trade discount from the seller. The
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

$17,820

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Catalog price of the merchandise = $30,000

Trade discount received = 40%

The amount of discount received = 40% of $30,000

= 0.4 × $30,000

= $12,000

Therefore,

Cost of Merchandise = Catalog price - Discount

= $30,000 - $12,000

= $18,000

also,

credit terms = 1/10, n/30

since, the payment was made within the discount period

1% of discount will be provided

thus,

amount of discount = 1% of cost of merchandise

= 0.01 × $18,000

= $180

hence,

Net cost of the merchandise

= Cost of merchandise - Discount on credit terms

= $18,000 - $180

= $17,820
