leonid [27]

Answer:

1. See part 1 of the attached excel file for the T-account.

2. See part 2 of the attached excel file for the T-account.

3. Because BSB is cutting back on its loans, other banks will find they have lower reserves, causing them to reduce their loans. Which of the following ways represent an alternative for BSB to return to its original reserve ratio? Check all that apply.

4. The correct options are b. Borrow money from another bank and d. Attract additional deposits.

Explanation:

1. Beleaguered State Bank (BSB) holds $500 million in deposits and maintains a reserve ratio of 20 percent. Complete the following T-account for BSB.

Note: See part 1 of the attached excel file for the T-account.

In the attached excel, the following calculations are made:

Reserves = $500 million * 20% = $100 million

Loans = $500 - $100 = $400

2. Now suppose that BSB's largest depositor withdraws $25 million in cash from her account. BSB decides to restore its reserve ratio by reducing the amount of loans outstanding.

Note: See part 2 of the attached excel file for the T-account.

In the attached excel, the following calculations are made:

Deposits = $500 million - $25 million = $475 million

Reserves = $475 million * 20% = $95 million

Loans = $475 - $95 = $380

3. Because BSB is cutting back on its loans, other banks will find they have lower reserves, causing them to reduce their loans. Which of the following ways represent an alternative for BSB to return to its original reserve ratio? Check all that apply.

4. Which of the following ways represent an alternative for BSB to return to its original reserve ratio? Check all that apply.

The correct options are b. Borrow money from another bank and d. Attract additional deposits.

In a discussion of economics, which of the following would exert the most influence on an individual firm's decision to hire wor

9966 [12]

Answer:

(B) the macroeconomy

Explanation:

The condition of the macroeconomy would exert the most influence of a firm's decision to hire more workers. As economic growth increases and demand grows, the firm is likely to hire more workers to meet increasing demand for its goods. On the other hand, in an economic recession, the firm is likely to hire less and even lay off its existing workers as demand for its goods reduces.

Option A is incorrect as a firm would not hire more workers even at low wage levels if the economy is in a recession. Option C is incorrect as the level of a firm's income would likely not be considered in its hiring decision if demand for its goods was very high. Option D is incorrect as the household income would likely not be considered by the firm in its hiring decision.

Larry is a hard-working college freshman. One Saturday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 200 practice problems f

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The marginal gain from Larry's second hour of work is 60 problems

The marginal gain from Larry's fourth hour of work is 20 problems

The best combination is 1 hour of working problems + 3 hours of reading

Explanation:

To get the marginal gain we subtract from the latest hour, in this case the second hour (140), the production from the previous hour (80). 140-80=60. It's always the same, the latest minus the previous one.

So let's do the same for the fourth hour:

Noon................200 problems

minus

11:00 AM..........180 problems

200-180= 20 problems

Now to know how many hours he should spend working on problems and reading, let's compare:

An hour of reading equals to 70 problems made; (because working on 70 problems raises a student’s exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour).

hours of working problems problems solved

0............................................................0

1.............................................................80

2............................................................140

3............................................................180

hours reading problems equivalent to hours read

4...............................................(4*70)=280

3...............................................(3*70)=210

2...............................................(2*70)=140

1................................................(1*70)=70

finally let's add up the two combinations (0 and 4, 1 and 3, 2 and 2, 3 and 1)

0 and 4_______________0+280= 280

1 and 3________________80+210=290

2 and 2_______________140+140=280

3 and 1________________180+70=250

And the best combination is 1 hour of working problems + 3 hours of reading=290
