Answer:

C, Controlling the supply of money

Explanation:

Federal Reserve Banks are banks that work together with a board to supervise commercial banks and their activities as well as implement policies, regulations and also influence the supply of money and credit.

Among these responsibilities or functions, its most basic economic policy is controlling the supply of money to the economy. When deposits are made in commercial banks, a percentage of those deposits are used up by the bank to conduct their businesses and the other saved up with the federal reserve banks.. When the commercial banks are short on funds to conduct business, the federal reserve banks are called upon to supply funds to make up for the deficit.  

I hope this helps.

Consider the following probability distribution for stocks A and B: State Probability Return on Stock A Return on Stock B 1 0.10
Tomtit [17]

It can be deduced that the expected rates of return of stocks A and B are 13.2% and 7.7% respectively.

<h3>How to calculate the expected rates of return</h3>

E(RA) = 0.1 (10%) + 0.2 (13%) + 0.2 (12%) + 0.3 (14%) + 0.2 (15%)= 13.2%

E(RB) = 0.1 (8%) + 0.2 (7%) + 0.2 (6%) + 0.3 (9%) + 0.2 (8%)= 7.7%

Therefore, the expected rates of return of stocks A and B are 13.2% and 7.7% respectively.

The standard deviation will be calculated thus:

Var(RA) = [0.1 (10%-13.2%)² + 0.2 (13%-13.2%)² + 0.2 (12%-13.2%)² + 0.3 (14%-13.2%)² + 0.2 (15%-13.2%)2 ] 1/2

= 1.5%

Var(RB) = [0.1 (8%-7.7%)² + 0.2 (7%-7.7%)² + 0.2 (6%-7.7%)² + 0.3(9%-7.7%)² + 0.2 (8%-7.7%)² ] 1/2

= 1.1%

Therefore, the standard deviation of stocks A and B are 1.5% and 1.1% respectively.

given data

sold the home and gain = $300,000

Although you have an exam tomorrow, you are considering watching one more episode of your favorite TV show. You will choose to s
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is A

Explanation:

Facing a decision for yes or not (buy or not to buy, sleep or not to sleep, eat or not to eat, and so on) you will choose to do something if this something gives you a positive marginal benefit.

In this case your situation has two sides. By one side, watching an extra episode is good and gives you utility, buy you also need to study and not tu study gives you disutilty (or it's a cost). So, you will watch your episode if it gives you more marginal benefit than the cost it gives you.

If you are in a situation where the marginal cost and benefit are already equal you won't watch another episode, as the marginal benefit will be negative.

Watching an extra episode is not free, it has an opportunity cost (study for the exam)

And about D, watching an extra episode will not always guarantee fun, think about watching 18 episodes in a row, not going to school and getting fired from job.

So, correct answer: A
