Answer:
the size of M1 can only be a fraction of checkable deposits.
Explanation:
fractional reserve banking system requires that a fraction banks receive as deposits from customers be kept as reserves with the central bank and the rest be made out as loans.
M1 consists of coins, demand deposits and currency in circulation. Banks determine the money in circulation by giving out loans. so the size of M1 can only be a fraction of checkable deposits.
Answer:
(a) 0; 0
(b) $150 per hour; $16.67 per hour
(c) (b) $150 per hour; $53.57 per hour
Explanation:
(a) Number of hours = 125
Marginal cost = 0 (since service is cost less upto 200 hours)
Average cost = 0
(b) Number of hours = 225
Marginal cost = $150 per hour
Total cost = $150 × (225 - 200)
= $150 × 25
= $3,750
Average cost = Total cost ÷ Number of hours
= $3,750 ÷ 225
= $16.67 per hour
(c) Number of hours = 325
Marginal cost = $150 per hour
Total cost = $150 × (325 - 200)
= $150 × 125
= $18,750
Average cost = Total cost ÷ Number of hours
= $18,750 ÷ 325
= $53.57 per hour
