In 2008, as a financial crisis began to unfold in the United States, the FDIC raised the limit on insured losses to bank depos

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

In 2008, as a financial crisis began to unfold in the United States, the FDIC raised the limit on insured losses to bank depositors from $100,000 per account to $250,000 per account.

During the financial crisis, there was a sense of panic. The regulators were concerned that depositors would expect their banks to crash and would fear that they may lose their money. The regulators expect the depositors to pull money back from their banks. The money supply will get reduced further. This will further reduce the money with banks. This could lead to even healthy banks to fail.

Raising the insurance limit would reassure depositors that their money was safe in banks and prevent a bank panic. This will further help to stabilize the financial system.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

e) Safety stock.

Explanation:

The term that describes this form of safety-net for companies is called safety stock. Companies tend to have this in order to be able to maintain their business flow as efficiently as possible in case there are unforeseen increases in demand. Otherwise, if demand drastically increases and they do not have this safety stock the company will run out of stock immediately and lose out on sales as they wait for more stock to arrive, which can also cause that stock to sell out immediately due to the backed-up demand, which can lead to the business buying backed up for months.

Ierofanga [76]

The true statement out of all is

B) Georgeland has both an absolute and a comparative advantage in producing clothing.

Explanation:

This is because Absolute advantage is when one firm or a producer is able to produce more of a product using less resources or less time or more of the product in the same resources or same time as the other.

Comparative advantage is found out at the added bonus of having the product be as viable as it is advantageous which means that the producer could also be making another product and would have the advantage in that too so either one of them is equally profitable.
