Suppose First Main Street Bank, Second Republic Bank, and Third Fidelity Bank all have zero excess reserves. The required reserv

lesantik [10]

Answer:

a) Assets: Reserves $200,000; Liabilities: Deposits $200,000

b) Amount Deposited: $2000,000; Change in Excess Reserves: $190,000; and Change in Required Reserves: $10,000

c) See the calculation below and the attached excel file for the table.

d) the $200,000 injection into the money supply results in an overall increase of $4,000,000 in demand deposits.

Explanation:

These can be answered as follows:

a) Complete the following table to reflect any changes in First Main Street Bank's T-account (before the bank makes any new loans).

Note: See the attached excel file for the table.

The $200,000 deposited by Lorenzo to First Main Street Bank led to the creation of both an asset and a liability for First Main Street Bank.

As a result, the reserve of the bank is increased by $200,000 on the asset side of the T-account. It is therefore now possible for the ban to grant loan to other customers from these additional reserves.

In addition, the demand deposit of the bank is increased by $200,000 on the liability side of the T-account. This is recorded as a demand deposit because it is possible for Lorenzo to come at any time to the band to withdraw his deposit either by using a debit card or by writing a check.

b) Complete the following table to show the effect of a new deposit on excess and required reserves when the required reserve ratio is 5%. Hint: If the change is negative, be sure to enter the value as negative number.

Note: See the attached excel file for the table. Just scroll the excel file down to part b.

The required reserve ratio of 5% indicates that First Main Street Bank has to hold 5% of the $200,000 the deposit or fresh fresh reserves, and this will result in having a 95% excess reserve which the bank can employ to grant loans.

From the amount deposited, the change in excess reserve and the change in the required reserve can be computed as follows:

Amount deposited = $200,000

Change in excess reserve = $200,000 * (1 - 5%) = $190,000

Change in required reserve = $200,000 * 5% = $10,000

c) Now, suppose First Main Street Bank loans out all of its new excess reserves to Juanita, who immediately uses the funds to write a check to Gilberto. Gilberto deposits the funds immediately into his checking account at Second Republic Bank. Then Second Republic Bank lends out all of its new excess reserves to Lorenzo, who writes a check to Neha, who deposits the money into her account at Third Fidelity Bank. Third Fidelity lends out all of its new excess reserves to Teresa as well.Fill in the following table to show the effect of this ongoing chain of events at each bank. Enter each answer to the nearest dollar.

Note: See the attached excel file for the table. Just scroll the excel file down to part c.

As already computed in part b above, we have the following to show the effect of this ongoing chain of events at each bank, we have:

For First Main Street Bank:

Increase deposit = Deposit from Lorenzo = $200,000

increase in required reserve = $200,000 * 5% = $10,000

Increase in loans = Loan to Juanita = $200,000 * (1 - 5%) = $190,000

For Second Republic Bank:

Increase deposit = Deposit from Gilberto = $190,000

Increase in required reserve = $190,000 * 5% = $9,500

Increase in Loans = Loans to Lorenzo = $190,000 * (1 - 5%) = $180,500

For Third Fidelity Bank:

Increase deposit = Deposit from Neha = $180,500

Increase in required reserve = $180,500 * 5% = $9,025

Increase in Loans = Loans to Teresa = $180,500 * (1 - 5%) = $171,475

d) Assume this process continues, with each successive loan deposited into a checking account and no banks keeping any excess reserves. Under these assumptions, the $200,000 injection into the money supply results in an overall increase of in demand deposits.

In order to calculate this, the formula for the money multiplier is used to multiply the initial deposit or injection of $200,000 by Lorenzo as follows:

Money multiplier = 1/r

Where r denotes required reserve ratio of 5%, or 0.05.

Therefore, we have:

Overall increase in demand deposits = Injection * (1 / r) = $200,000 * (1 / 0.05) = $200,000 * 20 = $4,000,000

Therefore, the $200,000 injection into the money supply results in an overall increase of $4,000,000 in demand deposits.

In which condition is it an advantage when group incentives encourage competition between groups of employees?

padilas [110]

It is an advantage when group incentives encourage competition between groups of employees when groups try to outdo one another in satisfying customers.

Competition is uncertainty about how to ensure survival. Competition can occur between entities such as organisms, individuals, and economic and social groups. Rivalry is about achieving unique goals such as visibility, leadership, market share, niche, scarce resources, or territory.

Competition, most commonly viewed as the interaction of individuals competing for a finite common resource, is the direct or indirect interaction of organisms that results in changes in fitness when they share the same resource. can be defined more broadly as a dynamic interaction.

There are four kinds of competition in a loose marketplace machine: perfect opposition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, and monopoly.

The four key characteristics of perfect competition are: (1) a huge wide variety of small companies, (2) equal merchandise offered by all firms, (three) perfect resource mobility or the liberty of entry into and go out out of the enterprise, and (4) perfect information of costs and generation.

Suppose a stock had an initial price of $57 per share, paid a dividend of $1.1 per share during the year, and had an ending shar

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

12.46%

Explanation:

Data provided

Dividend income = $1.1

Ending share per price = $63

Initial price = $57

The computation of the percentage total return is shown below:-

Total return = (Dividend income + (Ending share per price - Initial price)) ÷ Initial price

= ($1.1 + ($63 - $57)) ÷ 57

= ($1.1 + $6) ÷ 57

= $7.1 ÷ 57

= 0.12456

or 12.46%

At the high and low levels of activity during the month, direct labor hours are 90,000 and 40,000, respectively. The related cos

andre [41]

Answer:

The fixed cost at any level of activity is $48,000 while the variable cost per unit at any level of activity is $1.30

Explanation:

The total cost is a function of the fixed and variable cost. Whilst the fixed cost does not change at a certain range of activities level, the variable cost changes as the level of activities(units produced or sold).

Using the high and low levels of activities given, let the variable cost per unit be v and the fixed cost F

for the high level,

F + 90,000v = 165,000

For the low level

F + 40,000v = 100,00

Solving both equations simultaneously,

50,000v = 65,000

v = $1.30

F + 40,000($1.30) = 100,000

F = 100,000 - 52,000

F = $48,000
