$20,000 is correct

When they ask for the amount the bank can "create" they are really asking for the <u>change in the money supply</u><u>.</u> They are required to reserve 20%, so they can loan out 80%

80% * $5,000= $4,000

Now, the bank can use this $4,000 by loaning it out to other customers and earning interest on those loans. The customers can use the money for investments or spending. So the first little deposit of $5,000 has now spread to a lot more people and created a lot more opportunity for growth. This is known as the <u>multiplier effect.</u> To put the multiplier effect in dollar amounts, we need to know how much we are multiplying by. This is called the <u>deposit multiplyer</u> and the formula is 1/(required reserve ratio). The reserve ratio here is 20% or .2

1/(.2)= 5

Our deposit multiplier which will calculate the multiplier effect on the money supply (aka the amount the bank can "create") is 5

5* $4,000= $20,000

ozzi

Answer:

Overhead  application rate

= <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

  Budgeted machine hours

= <u>$900,000</u>

  30,000 hours

= $30 per machine hour

Overhead cost assigned to the product

= Overhead application rate x Actual machine hours  

= $30 x 12,000 hours

= $360,000                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

Explanation:

In this case, there is need to determine the overhead application rate, which is the ratio of budgeted overhead to budgeted machine hours.

Then, we will obtain the overhead cost assigned to the product by multiplying the overhead application rate by actual machine hours.
