Answer:

Provide a device through which the credit-creating activities of banks can be controlled

Explanation:

The legal reserve requirement is the minimum amount mandated by Central banks for banks to have as their minimum reserves.

The legal reserve requirement is used by the government as a means to control the supply of money in the economy.

If the central bank wants to reduce money supply, it increases the legal reserve requirement and if it wants to increase money supply, it reduces the legal reserve requirement.

A high reserve requirement reduces the amount that banks can make available for loans.

Why might one firm have positive cash flows and be headed for financial trouble?
Katena32 [7]
A cash flow statement merely describes the net change in a company's cash flow in investment, operational, and financial activities at a given period in time. As such, a bad debt in the company's portfolio cannot be reflected correctly in the cash flow statement. A company can also result to selling products at a much lower prices than it purchased them. While this is reflected in the cash flow statement, it does not translate into overall profitability of the concerned company.

If people evolve from apes then how are apes still in zoo's
lana [24]
Because when a species evolves, not all of them change. Only the few who have changed the genes, for example, humans will reproduce and unless we wiped out the old species and prevent them from reproducing ( which we didn't ) then there would not be any apes left, but because we didn't the apes still exist.
