Answer:

A) $800,000

Explanation:

Since the current reserve ratio is 20%, and the bank has no excess reserves, then the maximum it can lend if it receives $1 is $800,000.

The bank has currently $50 million in deposits and $10 million in reserves ($6 million in cash and $4 million in the Fed), so its reserves are exactly 20% of its total deposits. So if any new deposits are received, the bank will have to keep as reserves 20% of it (= $1,000,000 x 20% = $200,000).

This type of banking system is called the fractional banking system because banks are only required to keep a fraction of the money they receive as deposits and they can lend the rest to other clients.

Luba_88 [7]

The accommodative ability changes greatly because of age-related changes in the eye, including a decrease in the elasticity of the lens and the degeneration of the Zonular fibers and the ciliary muscles surrounding the lens.

The process of accommodation, or focusing on near objects, happened by a concerted action of the ciliary muscle on the zonule fibers which hold the lens in place. The ciliary muscle can be described as a ring of smooth muscle that, upon contraction, relaxes the tension on the zonular fibers and allows the lens to become more spherical.

The Rivoli Company has no debt outstanding, and its financial position is given by the following data:
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Intrinsic value is $45

Explanation:

The starting point to determining Rivoli Company intrinsic value is to compute the earning after tax as shown below:

Earnings after tax=earning before tax*(1-tax rate)

earnings before tax is $600,000

tax rate

earnings after tax=$600,000*(1-0.25)

                               =$600,000*0.75

                               =$450,000

Then we need to compute earnings per share;

Earnings per shares=earnings after tax/weighted average number of shares

                                 =$450,000/100,000

                                =$4.5

Intrinsic value=earnings per share/cost of equity

  cost of equity is 10%

intrinsic value=$4.5/10%

                      =$45
