Answer:
Explanation:
The discount rate is the interest rates on loans that the Federal Reserves makes banks. Banks occasionally borrow from the Federal Reserve when they find themselves short on reserves. A higher discount rate decreases banks' incentives to borrow reserves from the Federal Reserve, thereby reducing the quantity of reserves in the banking system and causing the money supply to fall
The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks charge one another for short term loans. When the Federal Reserve uses open-market operations to buy government bonds, the quantity of reserves in the banking system increases, banks' demand for borrowed reserves declines , and the federal funds rate decreases.

Answer:
696,325 Pounds
Explanation:
The computation of the direct material purchase budget is given below:
Here we assume that
one pound = 16 ounces
Now total wax needed is
= Production of Finished Goods × Pounds of wax needed for production
= 730,000 candles × 11 ÷ 16
= 501,875 pounds
Now
Total direct material purchased = (Total Wax needed + Ending Inventory, Jan.31 - opening inventory) × unit price
= (490,625 Pounds + 12,900 pounds - 17,400 pounds) × $1.40 per pound
= 696,325 Pounds
