Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": Division of Corporate Finance.
Explanation:
The Division of Corporate Finance is a body of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in charge of monitoring if publicly traded companies disclose enough information for investors to make informed decisions. The Division of Corporate Finance is also responsible for reviewing new institutions filings to go public by checking their Financial Statements, Form 10-Ks -company's performance, Form 10-Qs -quarterly financial reports, and proxy materials for voting among others.
The division does not disclose the criteria of evaluation to ensure integrity in the process.
Answer:
1. What is the Commerce Clause?
The Commerce Clause refers to the power held by Congress to regulate interstate commerce. Individual states can regulate commerce that takes place within their territory, but they cannot regulate trade between entities from their state and entities from other states.
2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?
This is an actual court case and the US Supreme Court ruled against Arizona's regulation because it interferes with interstate commerce. The cantaloupes that Bruce Church produced were supposed to be sold in California, that means that 2 states are involved. The Commerce Clause applies whenever trade between 2 states are involved. An individual state's regulations cannot result in a burden for businesses engaged in interstate commerce.
Answer: $2,400; $2,400
Explanation:
If a deposit of $6,000 is made, the reserve requirement is 20% so the bank will have to reserve this amount of:
= 6,000 * 20%
= $1,200
The bank will be left with:
= 6,000 - 1,200
= $4,800
The bank lends all of this out.
The public holds 50% of the currency so they will keep:
= 50% * 4,800
= $2,400
The rest - which is $2,400 - will be deposited as checkable deposits.
A formula helps you understand the problem better!!!
Answer:
Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is defined as the ability of a firm to produce higher amounts of a product as a result of use of the same resources with other competitors. It is usually bad a result of more efficient production process.
Comparative advantage is the ability of a firm to produce goods at a lower opportunity cost. Therefore they are able to sell at lower price compared to competitors.
Georgeland can produce 18 units of clothe per year while Alland can produce 16 units per year, so Georgeland has absolute advantage.
In producing clothes Georgeland has opportunity cost of 36 units of food which is higher than that of Alland which is 32 units of food. So Georgeland does not have comparative advantage in producing clothes.
