Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Amount spent on research and development = $3 million

Rent = $20 million = $20,000,000

Materials and wages = $10,000 per tractor

Number of tractors to be sold = 2,000

Now,

The lowest price will be when the company attains the break-even

thus,

At break-even point

Total cost = Total revenue

let the lowest cost be 'x'

therefore,

2,000x = $20,000,000 + ( $10,000 × 2,000 )

or

2,000x = $20,000,000 + $20,000,000

or

2,000x = $40,000,000

or

x = $20,000

Suppose the Fed decides it needs to pursue an expansionary policy. Assume people hold no cash, the reserve requirement is 50 per
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Because the current money multiplier is <u>2</u>, the Fed would <u>BUY $500,000</u> worth of bonds, <u>INCREASING</u> the monetary base and so increasing the money supply by $1 million.

Explanation:

if the Fed wants to increase the money supply by $1 million, then it would need to purchase US securities worth $500,000. The formulas used to calculate the impact of the Fed's operations are:

increase in money supply = additional funds x money multiplier

  • money multiplier = 1 / reserve ratio = 1 / 50% =  2
  • desired increase in money supply = $1 million

$1,000,000 = additional funds x 2

additional funds = $1,000,000 / 2 = $500,000
