When interest rates on treasury bills and other financial assets are low, the opportunity cost of holding money is <u>low </u>so the quantity of money demanded will be <u>high</u>.
If interest rates go up, the demand for money will go down. Once it equals the new money supply, there will be no more difference between how much money people are holding and how much they want to keep, and the story is over. This is why (and how) a decline in the money supply raises interest rates.
As interest rates rise, the amount of money demanded decreases because the opportunity cost of holding money decreases. As interest rates rise, aggregate demand shifts to the left. The interest rate effect arises from the idea that higher price levels reduce the real value of household holdings.

Answer:
Apollo's return on equity is 38.17%
Explanation:
The formula to compute the return on equity is shown below:
Return on equity = Net income ÷ total equity
where,
Net income = $50,000
And, the total equity is
= Common stock + retained earnings
= $10,000 + $121,000
= $131,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would equal to
= $50,000 ÷ $131,000
= 38.17%
Answer:
Shortage cost for May is $71,000
Explanation:
The expected demand for the month of May is 5000 units.
Shortages for month are carried to next month.
Shortage cost is $10 per month.
(Working days per month x hrs/day x # of workers)
20 days * 8 hours * 23 workers = 3680
Jan : 3680 - 3500 = +180
Feb : 3680 + 180 - 4500 = -640
Mar : 3680 - 640 -6000 = -2980
Apr : 3680 - 2980 -6500 = 5780
May : 3680 - 5780 -5000 = 7100
Answer:
A) Decreases , or D) Can increase or decrease (need more information)
Explanation:
Opportunity Cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone, while choosing an alternative.
Here, Opportunity cost of french fries - is the units of pizza sacrifised while making a unit french fries.
When oven broke, pizza that can be produced decrease.
- If oven break effects (negatively) only pizza, & french fries production capacity stays same ie constant - opportunity cost of french fries {ie pizza sacrifised} decreases
- If oven break effects pizza & french fries production capacity both - then opportunity cost of french fries changes (increase or decrease) based on their quantities' relative fall.
