Answer:
The correct answer is $30 billions.
Explanation:
The checkable deposits are given as $140 billions.
The total reserves are $51 billions.
The required reserve rate is 30%.
The required reserves will be
=30% of $140 billions
=
=$42 billions
The excess reserves will be
=total reserves-required reserves
=$51-$42
=$9 billions
Maximum expansion by lending will be
=
=
=$30 billions
So, the money supply can be expanded by a maximum amount of $30 billions.
Answer:
3 and 46.67 units
Explanation:
The formula and the computations are shown below:
The price of good B is
= {The price of good Z (Pz)} ÷ {Marginal rate of transformation}
= {$6} ÷ {2}
= 3
Now the number of units to be purchased for all income used is
= (Monthly income spent on two goods) ÷ (price of good B)
= ($140) ÷ (3)
= 46.67 units
By applying the above formula we can find out the price of good B and the number of units purchased
Answer:
We give our friend 437.5 dollars
Explanation:
We have to discount from 500 dollar the interest over time, as the 500 is the value our friend will return in 4 weeks ( a month) not the amount received Hence:
nominal x discount rate x time = discount
being rate and time in the same metric
rate is annual so we express time in portion of a year
500 x -1.5 x 1/12 = -62,5
We have to discount 62.5 dollar from the nominal
nominal less discount = present value
500 - 62.5 = 437.5
Answer:
Money multiplier for this economy is 5
Explanation:
Initial bank reserves = reserve deposit ratio * $500 = 0.2 * $500 = $100
1) increase in bank reserves by $1 , bank reserve deposit increases from $500 to $101 / 0.2 = $505 and the money supply increases by $505 - $500 = $5
2) increase in bank reserves by $5 , bank reserve deposit increases from $500 to $105 / 0.2 = $525 and the money supply increases by $525 - $500 = $25
3) increase in bank reserves by $10 , bank reserve deposit increases from $500 to $110 / 0.2 = $550 and the money supply increases by $550 - $500 = $50
as money supply rises by 5 times the increase in bank reserves , the money multiplier in this economy is 5.
