How does inflation help explain why banks charge interest on loans

Social Studies
1 answer:
Artyom0805 [142]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

In general, banks charge interest because that's how they make their money, at least that's what banks used to do. Interest is what they manufacture for their stockholders.  Now they do all sorts of things they shouldn't.

If you mean why do they raise interest rates when there is inflation, that is really an excellent question. The hope is that they are making money more expensive to borrow. It affects the money cycle. It makes it harder for people to borrow money so they can spend it on things that they need like housing or cars.

If there is large inflation, then high interest rates protect the bands when money will buy less than before the large inflation. It's an attempt to stabilize money.

Doris Johnson contributing
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Dame Doris Sands Johnson DBE (19 June 1921 – 21 June 1983) was a Bahamian teacher, suffragette, and politician. She was the first Bahamian woman to contest an election in the Bahamas, the first female Senate appointee, and the first woman granted a leadership role in the Senate. Once in the legislature, she was the first woman to be made a government minister and then was elected as the first woman President of the Senate. She was the first woman to serve as Acting Governor General of the Bahamas, and was honored as Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II.

Born on New Providence Island, she completed her secondary education and became a teacher. After teaching for 17 years, Johnson returned to school to earn a master's and doctorate degree in educational administration. During this period, she traveled back and forth between school and her Bahamian home organizing labor and suffrage efforts. Upon graduation, Johnson was unable to find work because of her activism. She made a compelling speech to the Bahamian legislature in 1959, pleading for women's suffrage and subsequently made a similar plea to the Colonial Office in London. Once the right to vote had been secured, Johnson immediately entered politics in 1961, running in the first election in which women were allowed to participate. Though she lost her bid, she worked with the Progressive Liberal Party to gain Bahamian independence. When the country gained its freedom from colonial rule, Johnson was appointed to the Senate and served the government until her death, a decade later.
