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.

Limited liability company
Explanation:
A limited liability company is a company where the liabilities of partners is limited to the amount invested in the company. A limited liability company has features of both a partnership and a sole proprietorship
The partnership is made up of a general partner and the limited partners. the general partner is involved in the daily running of the business. The limited partners are not involved in the daily running of the business. They just contribute capital.
In this question, the person involved in the running of the business is the general partner while the other 9 friends are the limited partners.
Answer:
Number of units that must be sold to earn the target profit is 3000 units.
The contribution margin ratio is 0.70
Explanation:
We will use the break even analysis modified for target profit to calculate the number of units needed to earn the desired
The break even point in units is calculated by dividing the fixed cost by the contribution margin per unit. To calculate the number of units required to earn the desired profit, we add the desired profit to fixed cost and divide it by the contribution margin per unit.
Contribution margin per unit = 250 - 75 = $175
Number of units required to earn target profit = (325000 + 200000) / 175
Number of units required to earn target profit = 3000 units
The contribution margin ratio is = 175 / 250 = 0.7 or 70%
Dollar Sales required to earn target profit = $4,812,500
Economics in many cases is an exact science, but usually it is a practical one that has applications. Thus there are some practical goals that need to be answered with the use of economics and an easy to summarize form of them are the five fundamental questions of economics. 3 of the choices above are such fundamental questions; determining the way of production, the receiver of the production as well as the ways in which the economic system can change are of fundamental importance to the science of economics. The other 2 questions are: What products will be produced ? and How can we foster progress?
Choice d is a pretty important question too (that falls somewhat under a) but the fact that it mentions the government specifically makes it less general than the other propositions so it is not a fundamental question.
Answer:discharge by frustration of purpose
Explanation:
Discharge by frustration of purpose is a defense concept used in law in order to bring about a breach or termination of a contract.This occurs when unplanned,spontaneous or unforeseen circumstances occurs and thus,it prohibits or prevents the core reason in which the contract was being entered into at the time of the contracts agreement,with both parties fully aware of the core reason which brought about the establishment of the contract.That is to say,the primary objective in which the contract was being created upon has automatically brought about a halt of the secondary reason(which is the contract itself),having in mind that both parties were originally aware of the primary reason for entering the contract.
Here,Paul and Patti Smith rented a room an amount triple it's original price because they were so excited to hear Lincoln speak. A day before Lincoln's speech, he was assassinated.So this disappointment brought about a "discharge by frustration of purpose" by the Smiths,not forgetting that that The bed and breakfast knew it was their original intent,that's why they paid such exorbitant prices for the room rental,although it sued them.
