Answer:

Explanation:

The computation of the maximum increase in money supply is shown below:

Data given in the question

Additional value in excess reserves = $868,981

Reserve ratio = 11%

By considering the above information, the maximum increase in money supply is

= Additional value in excess reserves × 100 ÷ reserve ratio

= $868,981 × 100 ÷ 11

= $868,981 × 9.09

= $7,899,827

pishuonlain [190]

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

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

There is some information missing, and when I looked for it I found similar questions but the demand was already given and the question was about Vincent's total daily income.

Passenger                  Price                  Daily demand

Adults                          $18                        70

Children                      $10                        25

Senior citizens            $12                        55

total                                                           150

total revenue per day = ($18 x 70) + ($10 x 25) + ($12 x 55) = $1,260 + $250 + $660 = $2,170

total operating costs per day = (150 / 50) x $450 = $1,350

operating income per day = $2,170 - $1,350 = $820
