Why are debit cards not listed as money? B<span>ecause they perform the same function as checks, and checks are counted as money. Debit cards are sometimes called check cards because they are linked directly to a checking account just as writing a check to someone would be. Since they are essentially serving the same purpose as a check, they are not listed as a money source. </span>

Answer:
b. the budget is adjusted to the actual activity for the period.
Explanation:
A flexible budget performance report is a comparison between actual costs and revenues, and the budgeted income and expenses at the end of a period, based on actual performance. The report shows the difference between the actual results and the estimated numbers. Management uses the report to determine if the company's results were in line with management expectations.
The performance report is prepared at the end of a financial period. It helps the management analyse any major variances between the actual performance at the estimated numbers at the beginning of a period. The report helps the management identify the companies strong areas, and the sections that need improvements.
Answer: the U.S. real interest rate and net exports will both rise.
Explanation: Due to the ongoing war abroad, there would be a reduction in production of goods and services in the affected countries and a rise in the production of goods and services in the safe haven country (US) leading to increased levels of export to meet the demand.
War affects investments negatively. As a result, investments are also moved to the US for safety. However, pressure on US producers and eventual shortage due to increased exports, would lead to inflation and increase in prices of goods and services. To mitigate these effects and to reduce the supply of money, government would increase interest rates.
This explains why both interest rates and export both rise.
