Answer:

Number of year = 41.8 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Total amount Amanda want (Future value) = $500,000

Amanda investment amount (Present Value) = $36,000

Rate of interest (r) = 6.50% = 6.50 / 100 = 0.065

Number of year (n) = ?

Computation of Number of year:

Future\ value =  Present\ Value(1+r)^n\\\\500,000 = 36,000(1+0.065)^n\\\\500,000/36,000 = (1.065)^n\\\\13.8888889 = (1.065)^n\\\\n = 41.78

Number of year = 41.8 (Approx)

Suppose you examine the central bank’s balance sheet and observe that since the previous day, reserves had fallen by $100 millio
aksik [14]

Answer:

The Central Bank is trying to increase money supply.

Explanation:

When the Central Bank makes moves to increase reserves, it means that it is simply trying to mop up excess cash from the economy to fight inflation. Spiking inflation means that the power of a currency is gradually being eroded. The Central Bank cannot allow this to happen so it hits the "Reduce Money In Circulation" button. It does this by reviewing upwards, the money reserves which commercial banks must hold with the Central Bank.  

It can also increase the rate at which it lends to the Commercial Banks and Investment houses. Commercial Banks, in turn, transfer the additional cost of borrowing to businesses who will seek loans. This slows down the rate at which money is pumped into the economy.

In the question, however, we notice that the Central Bank has enervated its reserves. This means that it is pumping more money into the economy. This economic move may have been executed to prevent the economy from slipping into a recession or simply to stimulate the economy.

In the short run, increased money supply means, businesses have more access to funds from commercial banks. More funds mean, more investment. Increased investment spending means the businesses will need to expand operations, hire more staff, and the multiplier effect goes on and on.

Cheers!

Starling Co. manufactures one product with a selling price of $18 and variable cost of $12. Starling’s total annual fixed costs
nikitadnepr [17]

The number of units that Starling Co. sold was 11200

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given -

Operating income = $28,800

Fixed cost = $38,400

Selling price of one unit = $12

Variable cost = $12

Number of units sold, n = ?

Contribution  margin per unit = $18 - $12

                                                 = $6

n = \frac{operating income + fixed cost}{contribution margin per unit}

n = \frac{28800 + 38400}{6} \\\\n = \frac{67200}{6} \\\\n = 11200

Therefore, number of units that Starling Co. sold was 11200
