Answer:

The amount of money the buyer deposits when they buy

Explanation:

In real estate, earnest money is an amount of money that the buyer hands gives to the seller (around 1-3% of the property's price) once they sign a purchase agreement. It is basically a good faith deposit that generally is held in a trust or escrow account.

If the purchase agreement is not carried out and the buyer is responsible for it, the seller gets to keep the earnest money. If the seller was responsible for the agreement not being fulfilled, then the earnest money is returned to the buyer.

Answer:

The amount of money the buyer deposits when they buy

Explanation:

Earnest money is the money a buyer pays to a seller which is usually like a deposit when they are purchasing a property to show how serious they are in purchasing the property.

When the seller gets the earnest money from the buyer, he is rest assured that the buyer is willing to purchase the property, so he gives him enough time to rally around to get the balance while he list the property off the sales market.

Without earnest money, most sellers are probably going to sell their properties to customer who brings money first.

There are two aspects of efficiency that the equilibrium of market for loanable funds exhibits. Select the TWO statements that c
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

a. Savers who lend money are willing to accept a lower minimum interest rate than potential savers who do not lend money.  

b. Investment projects that are financed by savers have larger rates of return than projects that do not receive financing.  

Explanation:

Loanable funds refer to the aggregate amount of money that all sectors, entities and individuals within an economy have decided to keep as an investment, instead of spending on personal consumption, by saving and giving them out as loans to borrowers.  

The market for loanable funds is in equilibrium when the supply of loanable funds by the saver is equal to demand for loanable funds by the borrowers at a given interest rate.

When the market for loanable funds is in equilibrium, efficiency is maximized because projects that have higher rates of return are given priority to be funded first before the projects with lower rates of return are funded. The reason is that savers that have lowest costs of lending provides funds for the projects that have highest return rates in equilibrium. However, potential saver who do not lend money will prefer a higher interest rates.

Therefore, the correct options related to the two aspects of efficiency that the equilibrium of market for loanable funds exhibits are as follows:

a. Savers who lend money are willing to accept a lower minimum interest rate than potential savers who do not lend money.  

b. Investment projects that are financed by savers have larger rates of return than projects that do not receive financing.
