Answer:
Casey's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of potatoes is 5 kg of steak.
Casey's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of steak is 0.2 kg of potatoes.
Rick's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of potatoes is 3 kg of steak.
Rick's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of steak is 0.33 kg of potatoes.
Casey should produce steak while Rick should produce potatoes, since Rick has a comparative advantage in producing potatoes (lower opportunity cost) and Casey has a comparative advantage in producing steak.
As long as the price of steak per kilogram of potatoes is less than 5 kg of steak and more than 3 kg of steak, then both would win. In order for both of them to win is a similarly proportional way, the exchange price should be 4 kg of steak per kg of potatoes.
23 is the answer because perfect square is between 20 and 30 is 25 and since the number is prime is has to be 23.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
they can not hire everyone
Answer:
1)
B. more reserves, thus increasing the money multiplier and increasing the money supply.
In a fractional-reserve banking system, banks create money when they make loans. The more money they have available to make loans, the more money they create.
If the Fed reduces the reserve-requirements, banks will have more reserves available to loan out, increasing the money multiplier, and thus, the money supply.
2)
A. rarely changes the reserve requirement and does not use the reserve requirement as a major monetary policy tool.
The Fed rarely uses this monetary policy tool because it is the most powerful one. Changing the reserve requirements effectively reduce or increase the money supply like no other monetary policy tool, therefore, the effects can be dramatic, and its use is a sign that all other tools have been exhausted (open-market operations, and discount window mainly).
Explanation:
Answer:
1) Buy 10 ounces of gold with the 350 dollars
2) Sell the 10 ounces of gold for £200
3) Exchange £200 for 360 dollars
Explanation:
Due to the difference between the exchange rate in gold and currency, a 2.1% (1.80 / 1.75) advantage can be obtained.
You start in the gold market with 350 dollars which are equal to 10 ounces of gold which are equal to £200. This according to the gold prices, witch generate a 1.75 exchange rate.
Then you go to the financial market where the exchange rate is larger (1.80) and with the £200 you get 360 dollars.
