Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The journal entry should be:

Dr Investment in Leghorn Corporation XX

    Cr Accounts receivable XX

Foghorn Company must record the noncash payment as an asset which should be equal to the amount of money that it generally would have collected from the services provided. Since the payment is done through stocks, it must record that collection as an investing account.

Since transferring stocks usually takes a couple of days at least, the original journal entry should have recorded a debit to accounts receivable and a credit to service revenue.

If the Fed increases the discount rate, which of the following accurately describes the sequence of events that will follow in t
AnnZ [28]

Answer: A. Reserves ↓: Excess reserves ↓; Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Money supply ↓

Explanation:

The discount rate is the rate at which the Fed lends money to banks and other depository type institutions. Normally banks have a reserve requirement that the Fed requires of them which states how much they are to leave with the Fed as a reserve. Banks tend to fall short of this reserve sometimes and so can borrow from the Fed to balance it off.

If the Fed increase the rate at which these banks can borrow, they will not want to do so thus leaving their Reserves at the Fed lower than it should be. They will then use their excess reserves which is money kept in reserve more than the Fed requires, to balance off their reserve at the Fed.

As a result of this reduction in their Excess reserve, they will have less money to give out as loans. With less loans being made, people will not have as much money to deposit after taking the loans. Money supply will then fall as a whole.
