Answer:

  • borrow <u>   euros   </u>

Explanation:

You borrow euros to buy dollars.

Assume you borrow $100 euros and buy Euros at the rate 0.8011Euro/$:

  • 100 euros × ( 1 / 0.8011Euro/$) = 124.83$

That means that, on Feb 14, 2018,  with 100 euros you buy $124.83.

Then, you keep the dollars until Mar 15, 2018 and sell them at the rate of 0.8210 Euro/$:

  • 124.83$ × 0.8210 Euro/$ = 102.49 Euro.

In that way, you converted 100Euro into 102.49Euro in 30 days.

That is a return of [102.49 - 100] / [100] × 100 = 2.49%. Then, if you borrowed at a rate less than 2.49% per month, you earned by <em>speculating</em> through the <em>"Short-selling" method</em>.

Answer: Decreasing the money supply

Explanation:

When the Fed reduces money supply, it will remove the amount of excess money that people have to spend in the economy. This will lead to prices reducing because people no longer have a lot of money to spend on products therefore they will demand less goods. This will lead to the Aggregate demand curve shifting to the left. The new intersection with the Aggregate Supply curve will be at a point where prices will be lower and less quantity will be demanded which will signify a drop in the short-run output of the economy.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Brian's demand is perfectly inelastic.

Crystal's demand is unit elastic.

Explanation:

Given that

Brian said = 10 gallons of gas

where, Crystal says = $10 worth of gas

By seeing the above information, we concluded that the Brain's demand is perfectly inelastic as the demand of the gallons are fixed

And, the crystal demand is unitary elastic as the expenditure would remain unchanged or fixed

In addition, the perfectly inelastic is when elasticity is zero , and unitary elastic is when elasticity is equal to one
