Solution:  
Let the amount invested in scheme which yields 9% be x and amount invested in scheme which yields 13% be y.  
x + y = 180000 --equation 1 
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation 2  
Balancing the equations, multiply equation 1 with 0.09 and equation 2 with 1,  
0.09x + 0.09y = 16200 -equation 3
 0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation4  
Subtracting equation 4 from 3, 
 -0.04y = -1800  
y = 45000 
 Now putting value of y in equation 1, 
 x + 45000 = 180000 
 x = 135000 
 The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 9% = $135,000
 The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 13% = $45,000

Answer:

1. <u>implicit cost</u>

2.<u> explicit cost</u>

3. <u>implicit cost</u>

4. <u>explicit cost</u>

Explanation:

Implicit costs refer to those costs that represent opportunity cost. In simple terms they are notional or those which haven't been actually incurred but considered.

Opportunity costs refer to the cost of sacrificed alternatives when an alternative is opted for. For instance, a student pursuing post graduation incurs implicit cost in the form of income foregone had he chosen to work instead for the same duration.

In the given case, the foregone rental income Jacques would've earned had he chosen to rent out his showroom represents opportunity cost or implicit cost.

Similarly, the salary Jacques sacrificed by working in boat business represents implicit cost.

The wages and utility bills that Jacques pays and wholesale cost which he pays represent costs which have actually been incurred, which are termed as explicit costs.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

International flows of funds can affect the Fed's monetary policy. For example, suppose that interest rates are trending lower than the Fed desires. If this downward pressure on U.S. interest rates may be offset by <u>outflows</u> of foreign funds, the Fed may not feel compelled to use a <u>tight </u>monetary policy.

Explanation:

A Tight Monetary Policy is when the central bank tightens policy or makes money tight by raising short-term interest rates through policy changes to the discount rate, also known as the federal funds rate. Boosting interest rates increases the cost of borrowing and effectively reduces its attractiveness.

Outflows of foreign funds or the flight of assets occurs when foreign and domestic investors sell off their holdings in a particular country because of perceived weakness in the nation's economy and the belief that better opportunities exist abroad.

The reasoning is as follows, the rate is down in the USA so holders of assets look for better rates abroad as a consequence  there is less money in the US domestic economy and automatically the rate tend to rise (remember that interest rate is the price of money). If there is less supply of something the price of that something will go up (ceteris paribus). The same thing will happen to the interest rate without the intervention of the FED.
