d consequently have less money to lend. The result is that the banks will raise the interest rate they charge to their customers. These conditions make it harder and more expensive for people and businesses to borrow money. Because they can’t borrow as much, they can’t spend as much. If people aren’t spending as much, prices don’t go up. With this action, the Fed has lessened the likelihood of ________."

Answer: a. Inflation

Explanation:

Inflation refers to the general rise in prices of items in an economy in a certain period of time. Inflation essentially erodes the value of the domestic currency of the economy in question.

Central Banks like the Fed can use Monetary policy to influence inflation. In this case they reduced the amount of money in the economy by reducing bank loans. This will ensure that people cannot spend too much which would increase demand and therefore increase prices.

By doing this, they have limited the likelihood of inflation.

If a payback period for a project is greater than its expected useful life, the ___________.
just olya [345]

Answer: d. Entire initial investment will not be recovered.

Explanation:

The Payback period by definition is the amount of time it will take a Project to recover the initial investment into it. For example, if a project had an investment of $20 million and made $5 million every year, the Payback period would be 4 years.

Now, if the amount of time it will take to recover an investment is longer than the expected amount of time the project will run (expected useful life) then logically speaking that would mean that the Investment would not be entirely recovered because the project will be done before it can pay off the investment hence Option D is correct.

What are the kinds of purchases for which you’ll "spare no expense"? What kinds of purchases do you want to buy spending as litt
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

"Spare no Expense" Purchases

When purchasing long-term items (assets) which cannot be consumed within a short-term period, one tends to "spare no expense."  These purchases are dictated by their quality and not price.  For example, in constructing a building an individual or an entity does not consider the price as a deciding factor.  Instead, the entity goes for the best quality at whatever price.  In such a situation, it can be described as "sparing no expense" because it can spend as possible as is needed to ensure that the quality of the construction was of the highest standard.  A wealthy man does not spare any expense to receive medical treatment.  Vacationists spare no expense to go on vacation

These purchases or items come with high prices and they last longer than a year.

On the other hand, one does not want to spend much resources on goods that are not durable.  So, the person involved tend to spend as little as possible.  No one wants to buy expensive food items.  But, the same person can pay for an exorbitant car.  No one wants to expend much resources on inner wears, but the same person can spend thousand for the outer wears, to put up appearances.

Ostentatious goods that convey image attract higher prices much more than private goods that others co not care whether you use them or not.  This accords with our human natural way of believing in appearances.

The major factors that differentiate between these two categories that drive our attitude regarding price include:

a) Scarcity, b) Longevity, c) Quality, d) Price, e) Durability, f) Ostentation

Explanation:

The expression "spare no expense" means to spend as much financial resources as needed in order to make something happen or bring about an outcome.
