Answer:

1) If the Fed sells $2 million of government bonds, the economy’s reserves Decrease by $2 million, and the money supply will Decrease by $16 million.

2) The money multiplier will remain unchanged. True

3) As a result, the overall change in the money supply will remain unchanged. True

Explanation:

1.) We have the reserve requirement for checking deposits as 12.5% with banks not holding any excess reserves.

To calculate Money Multiplier:

Money Multiplier = \frac{1}{required reserved ratio} = \frac{1}{0.125} = 8

If the Fed sells $2 million of bonds, reserves will decrease by $2 million and the money supply will decrease by 8 x $2 million = $16 million.

2) and 3) Now the Fed lowers the reserve requirement to 10 percent, but banks choose to hold another 2.5 percent of deposits as excess reserves.

To calculate Money Multiplier:

Money Multiplier = \frac{1}{required reserved ratio} = \frac{1}{0.1+0.025} = 8

Money multiplier is 8 same as in 1) Therefore the statements: "The money multiplier will remain unchanged" and "As a result, the overall change in the money supply will remain unchanged" are both True.

Income Statement For the Year Ended on December 31 J&H Corp. Industry Average Net sales $39,000,000 $48,750,000 Operating co
noname [10]

Answer:

1.J&H Corp’s NOPAT is $3,744,000, which is $936,000 lower than industry average of $4,680,000

2.Net operating working capital of $18,000 is been used by the company.

3.J&H Corp will be generating $5,019,600 in net cash flow from its operations and an accounting profit of $3,369,600

4.Therefore the firm uses $978,000 of total net operating capital to run the business.

Explanation:

J&H Corp

1. Calculation for NOPAT

NOPAT = 6,240,000 x (1- 40%)

= 6,240,000 x (1 – 0.4)

= 6,240,000 x 0.6

= $3,744,000

Calculation for Industry Average

Industry Average= 7,800,000 x (1- 40%)

7,800,000×(1-0.4)

7,800,000×0.6

=$4,680,000

Hence:

($4,680,000-$3,744,000)=$936,000

J&H Corp’s NOPAT is $3,744,000, which is $936,000 lower than industry average of $4,680,000

2:Calculation for Net Operating Working Capital

Net Operating Working Capital= Current Operating Assets − Current Operating Liabilities

Net Operating Working Capital= (Cash + Accounts Receivable + Inventories)− (Accounts Payable + Accrued Expenses)

Short term investments won't be included in Current Operating Assets

Given current assets = $600,000 ×12% in Short term investments = $72,000

Therefore Current Operating Assets will be: 600,000 – 72,000 = $528,000

Current Operating Liabilities = $510,000

Net Operating Working Capital

= $528,000 - $510,000 = $18,000

Net operating working capital of $18,000 is been used by the company.

3. Calculation for Net cash flow operations

Net cash flow from operations = Net income + Depreciation & Amortization + Changes in Working Capital

Changes in working capital = Working capital of the year

= $600,000 - $510,000

= $90,000

Net cash flow from operations will be:

$3,369,600 + $1,560,000 + $90,000 = $5,019,600

The Accounting profit will be the total revenue less the explicit costs

Explicit costs includes operating expenses, depreciation, interest and taxes.

Hence, the Accounting Profit will be :

Net income = $3,369,600

J&H Corp will be generating $5,019,600 in net cash flow from its operations and an accounting profit of $3,369,600

4. Calculation for the Total net operating capital

Total net operating capital = Net Operating Working Capital + Non-current Operating Assets

$528,000 - $510,000 = $18,000

Net Operating Working Capital = $18,000

Non-current Operating Assets = operating long term assets = $960,000

Total net operating capital

= $18,000 + $960,000

= $978,000

Therefore the firm uses $978,000 of total net operating capital to run the business. Thus the value is been computed as the sum of J&H Corp’s net operating working capital and its Non-current Operating Assets.
