Answer:

The bank will create excess reserve of $200 billion

Explanation:

The question measures the size of credit expansion associated with the new currency deposit. the computation below shows how excess reserves can be computed.

Money multiplier              =   1 /Legal Reserve Ratio  = 1/0.2 = 5

Excess Reserve Created = A x (1 /Legal Reserve Ratio)

Where:                          A  = New currency deposit =  $40

       Legal Reserve Ratio = 0.20      

                                     

Excess Reserve Created = $40 x (1/0.2)  =  $40 x 5 =  $200 billion                                          

The legal reserve of 5 indicates that for every unit of money reserved by banks, they are able to create 5 units of same.

The money creation capability of the banking system as a whole is depends on the legal reserve ratio. Legal reserve ratio is a fraction of a bank deposit which the law requires them to hold. The bank can only lend the balance after deducting the legal reserve.

Abc buys widgets for $5 cash and sells them on account for $8. At the point of sale, what is the effect on the cash flow of abc?
s2008m [1.1K]

At the point of sale, there is an increase in the effect on the cash flow of abc.

What is cash flow?

A cash flow is a real or virtual movement of money.

  • A cash flow in its narrow sense is a payment (in a currency), especially from one central bank account to another; the term 'cash flow' is mostly used to describe payments that are expected to happen in the future, are thus uncertain and therefore need to be forecast with cash flows.
  • A cash flow is determined by its time t, nominal amount N, currency CCY and account A; symbolically CF = CF(t,N,CCY,A).
  • It is however popular to use cash flow in a less specified sense describing (symbolic) payments into or out of a business, project, or financial product.
  • Cash flows are narrowly interconnected with the concepts of value, interest rate and liquidity. A cash flow that shall happen on a future day t(N) can be transformed into a cash flow of the same value in t(0).

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

There are 3 main decision making styles that most of us have regarding our normal day to day activities that includes our work and our personal lives, e.g. families and individual decisions. They are consumer, business, and personal decision making styles.

But managers, and specially true leaders have it a little more complicated. The four main decision making styles that apply to leaders are:

  1. directive: type of autocratic leadership where the leader decides everything by himself/herself
  2. conceptual: look for different alternatives and analyze each one of them
  3. consultative: seek advice from colleagues and subordinates, but the leader makes the decision
  4. consensus: seek advice from others and decisions are made by the group

The second part of the question is true; this leadership styles vary across countries, occupations and job levels.

Section 103 of the Federal Public Works Employment Act establishes the Minority Business Enterprise program and requires that, a
EastWind [94]

Explanation:

Looking from a fair point of view, the White owners of businesses have legitimate reasons to feel that the Act constitutes illegal reverse discrimination.

Remember, reverse discrimination implies an unfair treatment of the majority group (White owners) in an effort to please the minority group. This is evident from the fact that the 10 percent of all federal grants to be released by the Economic Development Administration was only to be used to purchase services or supplies from businesses owned and controlled by U.S. citizens belonging to one of six minority groups excluding the White business owners; making the White owners feel discriminated against.

Thus, unintentionally the Act became a reverse discrimination on White business owners.
