Answer:
B. Sell government securities to prevent the expansion of the money supply.
Explanation:
- The federal reserve can expand the money supply by modifying the money supply and refers to the amounts of the finds the banks must hold against the deposits and thus by allowing the reserves needs the banks are able to load more money and increases the supply in the economy. Thus by selling the securities the banks can control the supply and interest rates and is called an open market.
That it increases the money supply and the inflation is higher. More money can be loaned out by the bank.
Solution:
Given Information,
Heat input is (
) = 5.5 ×
Btu/h
Combustion efficiency of the boiler (
) = 0.7
Combustion efficiency after turn up (
) = 0.8
Operation Hour (t) = 5200h
Unit cost (c) = 
Calculate heat output from the boiler
=
x 
= 5.5 x
x 0.7
= 3.85 x
Btu/h
Calculate the heat input to the boiler after the tune-up
=
/ 
= 3.85 x
/ 0.8
= 4.8125 x
Btu/h
Calculate the saved energy after the tune-up
=
- 
= 5.5 x
- 4.8125 x
Btu/h
= 0.6875 x
Btu/h
Calculate the annual energy saving (
)
=
x t
= ( 0.6875 x
Btu/h ) ( 5200 hr/yr)
= 3575 x
Btu/h
Calculate the annual cost saving
Annual cost saving =
x Unit cost
= 3575 x
Btu/h x 
= 82225
