astraxan [27]

Answer:

B) sale; decrease

  • If the Fed wants the federal funds rate to stay at that level, then it should undertake an open market <u>SALE</u> of bonds, everything else held constant. If the Fed does nothing, however, the federal funds rate will <u>DECREASE</u>.

Explanation:

The federal funds rate is the rate at which banks make overnight loans to other banks or financial institutions. If the supply of money is too high, then the interest rates will start to decrease.

Money is like any other good, and its price is determined by the supply and demand. The higher the supply, the lower the equilibrium price. The equilibrium price of money is the interest rate.

If the Fed wants to avoid the decrease in the interest rate, it must absorb excess supply of money, and the only way it can do it is by selling bonds.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

80 % of materials ;  43 % of conversion costs

Explanation:

The FIFO method traces equivalent units for materials and conversion costs for the following categories :

  1. Opening Work in Process units
  2. Units started and completed
  3. Ending Work in Process units

So the units not completed from last months are the first to be completed during the month (hence To finish Opening Work in Process). During the year there are units started and completed (hence Units Started and Completed) and units started that never gets completed (hence Ending Work in Process units).

All these physical units need to be expressed to the percentage of work done on them - equivalent units.

The question is focusing on Number 3 - Ending Work in Process units. So 80 % of materials and 43 % of conversion costs were added during October for these units.
