Groupthink is when a group of individuals reach a consensus without really weighing the matter, comsequences, or whether you can have other alternatives. Groupthink takes its cue from just desiring not to upset the balance of a group of people. This in no way does not describe the Motorola team that developed the Razr cell phone. They agreed on the objectives at hand and on the best approach to solve the problem.
Answer: The Contract is valid.
Explanation:
Under the UCC’s Statute of Frauds, transactions above $500 for goods cannot be made orally alone and have to be written in writing as well. This is the law that Rosenfield relied on.
However, Fallsview can argue that the Passover Retreat is not a Good, but rather a Service in which case it does not fall under the Statute.
The main bone of contention thereby becomes, if indeed it is a service or a good.
If it is a Hybrid of both, then the Court needs to decide if the services outweigh the goods involved.
From the text we see that the following were included in the package, food, entertainment, and lectures on religious subjects.
Food is the only good there and is outweighed by Entertainment and lectures on religious subjects.
As such, the contract is valid as it is for more service than good.
Answer: A. Reserves ↓: Excess reserves ↓; Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Money supply ↓
Explanation:
The discount rate is the rate at which the Fed lends money to banks and other depository type institutions. Normally banks have a reserve requirement that the Fed requires of them which states how much they are to leave with the Fed as a reserve. Banks tend to fall short of this reserve sometimes and so can borrow from the Fed to balance it off.
If the Fed increase the rate at which these banks can borrow, they will not want to do so thus leaving their Reserves at the Fed lower than it should be. They will then use their excess reserves which is money kept in reserve more than the Fed requires, to balance off their reserve at the Fed.
As a result of this reduction in their Excess reserve, they will have less money to give out as loans. With less loans being made, people will not have as much money to deposit after taking the loans. Money supply will then fall as a whole.
