Answer:

Money multiplier for this economy is 5

Explanation:

Initial bank reserves = reserve deposit ratio * $500 = 0.2 * $500 = $100

1) increase in bank reserves by $1 , bank reserve deposit increases from $500 to $101 / 0.2 = $505 and the money supply increases by $505 - $500 = $5

2)  increase in bank reserves by $5 , bank reserve deposit increases from $500 to $105 / 0.2 = $525 and the money supply increases by $525 - $500 = $25

3)  increase in bank reserves by $10 , bank reserve deposit increases from $500 to $110 / 0.2 = $550 and the money supply increases by $550 - $500 = $50

as money supply rises by 5 times the increase in bank reserves , the money multiplier in this economy is 5.

Which of the following assets must be reported at the​ lower-of-cost-or-market value? A. Merchandise Inventory B. Accounts Recei
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Merchandise Inventory.

Explanation:

Lower-of-cost-or-market value is a strategy by which the costs of inventory on the company's Balance Sheet is reported at historical value -purchase cost- or market value, whatever it is lower. The lower-of-cost-or-market approach considers the value of inventory can change, meaning it can increase but it can decrease as well. For both purposes, the lower-of-cost-or-market value can be used. This technique follows the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Therefore, <em>merchandise inventory, which can fluctuate in price during a period, is reported using the lower-of-cost-or-market value method.</em>
