Answer:

C) Taper integration

Upstream operations refers to suppliers, and the company is producing some of the supplies that it needs.

Use the following balance sheet data for the First National Bank to answer the next question. Assets Liabilities Net Worth Reser
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Reserves & Checkable deposits will equal to $36,000 and $106,000

Explanation:

The amount of checkable deposits is given $120,000 on the liabilities side. So, the withdrawal and clearance of check worth $14,000 will lead to a decline in the number of checkable deposits by $14,000. As a result, the remaining amount of checkable deposits will equal to $106,000 ($120,000 - $14,000).

To maintain the balance on asset & liabilities side of the balance sheet, the asset side will also reduce by $14,000. $14,000 will be deducted from the reserves of the bank. As a result, the remaining amount of reserves is equal to $36,000 ($50,000 - $14,000).

Which is not one of the five fundamental questions?
astra-53 [7]
Economics in many cases is an exact science, but usually it is a practical one that has applications. Thus there are some practical goals that need to be answered with the use of economics and an easy to summarize form of them are the five fundamental questions of economics. 3 of the choices above are such fundamental questions; determining the way of production, the receiver of the production as well as the ways in which the economic system can change are of fundamental importance to the science of economics. The other 2 questions are: What products will be produced ? and How can we foster progress?
Choice d is a pretty important question too (that falls somewhat under a) but the fact that it mentions the government specifically makes it less general than the other propositions so it is not a fundamental question.
