Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": feels the marginal benefit of an extra hour of studying exceeds the marginal cost of not playing basketball.

Explanation:

In decision-making, an analysis of benefits-costs is essential to select the choice with the greatest return.<em> If the marginal benefit of the choice is greater than the marginal cost, it is reasonable to take that option</em>. If the marginal cost is greater than the marginal benefit, it is convenient to leave that option behind.

Thus, <em>Russell must have considered the marginal benefit of an extra hour studying greater than the marginal cost of not playing basketball.</em> That is the reason why he rather spent an hour with his books than with a basketball.

Answer:

c. feels the marginal benefit of an extra hour of studying exceeds the marginal cost of not playing basketball.

Explanation:

Russel made a choice to study for an hour instead of playing basketball. When making choices people weigh the benefits of an action against its opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost is the forgone alternative when we choose to do something.

In this instance Russell chose to study and the opportunity cost was to enjoy playing a basketball game.

For him to choose to study it means he saw the benefit of reading to be greater than the marginal cost of playing basketball. So he chose the most beneficial activity for him.

Answer:

Excess reserves

Explanation:

Money supply in the economy is regulated by the central bank of Federal Reserve through various methods.

One of them is the use of reserve ratio.

Reserve ratio is the percentage of total deposit in a bank that commercial banks are required to keep aside and not use.

Opinion: You have an opportunity to attend a four-year college for free. However, you are required to major in a career area tha
juin [17]

Answer:

I would go ahead and avail this opportunity. Although it is a wide spread phenomenon that one should only acquire a degree in a field which is at a boom and is possibly going to be successful in the future. But times keep changing. Fields and phenomenon which did not have a chance in the past have now become most successful with unfulfilled potential.

On the other hand, acquiring college education is a luxury. 4 years without paying for it is a chance that nobody should miss. You can come up with creative ideas to make that degree work. Besides, people do not actually get the jobs according to their degrees. So there is a possibility that I would land a job.

Your firm (an Australian firm) makes a sale to a Japanese customer.  The sale price is 200 million Japanese Yen payable in exact
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

An Australian Firm Selling to a Japanese Customer

a) Direct Quote of the Exchange Rate between Australian Dollar and Japanese Yen:

A$ 1 = ¥90

Meaning 1 Australian Dollar = 90 Japanese Yen.

Therefore, the price of the goods would be A$ 2,222,222.22222 (¥200 million)/ ¥90

b)Theoretical Current Forward Exchange Rate, quoted in terms of JPY/AUD for delivery in three months:

= Spot Rate x (1 + Japanese Interest Rate) / (1 + Australian Interest Rate) x 360/90

= ¥90 x (1 +0.005) / (1 +0.03) x 360/90 = ¥90 x 1.005/1.03 x 360/90

= ¥351.26214 =A$1

c) The Australian firm can take advantage of any decreases in the exchange rate and also ensure that it receives at least Australian $2 million by entering into a Currency Forwards Contract.

d) If the spot exchange rate in 3 month's time is:

(i) AUD/JPY=150, the outcome of the hedging with a Currency Forwards Contract to get at least A$ 2 million would be the gain of:

Forward Exchange outcome in Australian Dollars = ¥200 million/ ¥150 =

A$ 1,333,333.33333

Hedging outcome minus Forward Exchange outcome

A$2 million - A$ 1,333,333.33333 = A$666,666.66667

(ii) AUD/JPY = 50, the outcome of the hedging with a Currency Forwards Contract to get at least A$ 2 million would be the loss of:

Forward  Exchange outcome =  in Australian Dollars = ¥200 million/ ¥50 =

A$4 million

Hedging outcome minus Forward Exchange outcome

A$2 million - $4 million = -A$2million

Explanation:

a) Currency forwards contracts and future contracts are used to hedge the currency risk. For example, a company expecting to receive  ¥200 million in 90 days, can enter into a forward contract to deliver the  ¥200 million and receive equivalent Australian dollars in 90 days at an exchange rate specified today.

b) If A$ 1 = ¥90

Therefore, the price of the goods would be A$ 2,222,222.22222 (¥200 million)/ ¥90 in Australian Dollars.
