Answer: Option D

Explanation: Short term investments can be defined as the liquid investments that are expected to be sold or be converted into cash within a particular time period, generally a year or operating cycle of the company. Primary examples are commercial paper and US treasury bills.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

It is both qualitative data and primary data.

Explanation:

Qualitative data is data that is not expressed in numerical values. Kay & Maggie are asking for opinons in the survey and interviews. These opinons are not numbers, they are words, language, therefore, they are qualitative.

It is primary data because Kay & Maggie are collecting the information directly from the desired source, the customers, instead of collecting the data from a third party.

In what ways might monetary policy be superior to fiscal policy?
a_sh-v [17]

Monetary policy does not require congressional approval, it is more flexible than fiscal policy. Conversely, monetary policy has a propensity to increase inflation more than fiscal policy.

A country's central bank uses a set of instruments called monetary policy to regulate the total amount of money in circulation, foster economic expansion, and implement measures like adjusting interest rates and altering bank reserve requirements.

The Federal Reserve Bank of the United States carries out a monetary policy under a twin mandate to maximise employment while containing inflation.

A nation's overall money supply is managed by monetary policy, which also aims to promote economic growth.

Interest rate changes and adjustments to bank reserve requirements are examples of monetary policy strategies.
