Answer: $1639.3
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Bank A quotes a bid rate of $0.300 and an ask rate of $0.305 for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) and that bank B quotes a bid rate of $0.306 and an ask rate of $0.310 for the ringgit.
The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage goes thus:
Purchasing Malaysian ringgit (MYR) from bank A at the ask rate will be:
= $500,000/$0.305
= 1,639,344.3
Selling the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) at bank B based on the ask rate will be:
= 1,639,344.3 × 0.306
= $501,639.3
The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage will be:
= $501,639.3 - $500,000
= $1639.3
Answer: 4. Demand will shift inwards, lower rates and decreasing lending.
Explanation:
People demand loanable funds for spending on consumption and investment. If there is a recession, people will buy less goods and companies will invest less as well.
This will reduce the demand that people and companies have for loanable funds. The demand will therefore shift inwards to the left and lead to lower rates and decreased lending.
In statistics, reliability refers to how consistent a measurement scale is overall. Measurement scales with high reliability scores would be able to produce similar results when tested with groups of samples similar to the initial testing conditions.
Reliability scores are measured through reliability coefficient which spans from 0.0 to 1.0. What a reliability coefficient of 0.92 means is (B) 92% of the variance in scores is explained by real differences.
Answer: a.$4,576
Explanation:
Sometimes the cash balance according to the books is not the same as the cash in the bank account and this is due to some transactions not being recorded by either the bank or the firm.
Adjusted cash balance per books = Unadjusted cash balance + Note receivable and interest collected by bank - Bank charge for check printing - NSF Check
= 4,022 + 746 - 28 - 164
= $4,576
