Answer:

A. To keep banks with falling asset values solvent.

Explanation:

When a bank is failing it will result in loss of funds not only for the bank but also for customers that have accounts in these banks.

If a bank eventually closes operations as a result of insolvency, they will not be able to pay off the customers. That is where the deposit insurance comes in to settle customers.

The government will have to spend a lot of money reimbursing customers their money.

To avoid this the federal government ensures the capital of banks is maintained to keep banks with falling asset values solvent.

Match each type of employment with its definition (2 points)
Rainbow [258]

Each type of employment has been matched with its definition thus:

  • Frictional unemployment: Unemployment associated with workers who are  between jobs
  • Cyclical unemployment: Unemployment resulting from mismatches between  employer needs and employee skills.
  • Structural unemployment: Unemployment associated with the highs and lows of  the business cycle.

There are different causes of employment. Frictional unemployment is the timeframe between the period an individual lost his job and seeks another.

Structural unemployment is a result of inconsistencies in the labor market.

Cyclical unemployment occurs when the demand from the employee is not met with the skills of the employer.
