Answer:
B. increase; stay the same; stay the same
Explanation:
Bank reserves are compulsory deposits by the banks that they are required to not loan out( they are kept in the vault). Therefore, when a local bank decides to convert some of its U.S. Treasury securities into cash, this is an increase in assets. Since the cash is held in its vault, reserves will increase, liabilities will not be affected and owner’s equity will also not be affected. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
Answer:
1. Responsive
2. Elastic
Explanation:
When the price elasticity of demand for a good is very elastic, quantity demanded is RESPONSIVE to a change in price and the demand curve is relatively ELASTIC.
This is because the price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded to a change in price.
Consequently, as the quantity demanded changes, the demand curve then becomes relatively elastic, by shifting either to the right or left.
Answer:
Instructions are listed below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Projects:
A
Io= -$ 800,000
Perpetual cash= $ 90,000
B
Io= 100,000
Perpetual cash flow= 20,000
C
Io= 300,000
Perpetual CF= 25,000
D
Io= 400,000
Perpetual CF= 60,000
To find the present value of a perpetual annuity we need to use the following information:
PV= cash flow/i
A) i= 0.16
A= -800000 + (90000/0.16)= -237,500
B= -100000 + (20000/0.16)= 25,000
C= -300000 + (25000/0.16)= -143,750
D= -400000 + (60000/0.16)= -25000
Only project B is pursuable.
B) i=10%
A= 100,000
B= 100,000
C= -50,000
D= 200,000
Only project C is not pursuable. Project D has the greatest net present value.
C) With i=16% only project B should be pursued. With i=10%, project D is the best.
For the answer to the question above, the accumulation of national wealth depended on the increasing a nation's trade surplus according to mercantilism. The more you produce than what you import. It's like in business but in a bigger perspective.
