If the reserve requirement is 20 percent, then excess reserves of $800 can increase M1 money supply by ___. g
Llana [10]

Answer:

If the reserve requirement is 20 percent, then excess reserves of $800 can increase M1 money supply by ___.

$3,200.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Excess reserves = $800

Reserve requirement = 20%

Therefore, M1 money supply = $800/20% = $4,000

The increase in the M1 money supply will be $3,200 ($4,000 - $800)

b) The amount of funds that a bank is required by the central bank to hold in reserve to meet liabilities in case of sudden withdrawals by depositors is called the reserve requirement. It is usually stated as a percentage by the Fed Reserve.  The Fed uses reserve requirement as a tool to increase or decrease money supply in the economy and influence interest rates.  What the Fed does with the reserve requirement, therefore, depends on the monetary policy that it chooses to respond to the money market.

What are the portfolio weights for a portfolio that has 138 shares of Stock A that sell for $48 per share and 118 shares of Stoc
Vika [28.1K]

Explanation:

The portfolio weight of an asset is the total investment in that asset divided by the total portfolio value. First, we will find the portfolio value, which is:

Total value = 122($32) + 102($22) = $6,148

The portfolio weight for each stock is:

WeightA = 122($32) / $6,148 = .6350

WeightB = 102($22) / $6,148 = .3650

b. Anita’s opportunity cost of making one floral arrangement is ___0.75__

( 1.33, 0.75, .33, 3) deliveries. Anita’s opportunity cost of making one delivery is __1.33_ (1.33, 0.75, .33, 3) floral arrangements.

c. Jerome’s opportunity cost of making one floral arrangement is ___0.33__(.75,3,1.33..33) deliveries. Jerome’s opportunity cost of making one delivery is 3 (3, 1.33, .75, .33) floral arrangements.

d. (Jerome, Anita)_Jerome____ has a comparative advantage in floral arrangements. (Jerome, Anita)__Anita___ has a comparative advantage in deliveries.

e. Suppose that, initially, both Jerome and Anita spend four hours each day doing floral arrangements and two hours each day doing deliveries. Now suppose they change their tasks, so that each individual does nothing but the task in which she or he has a comparative advantage. How many more floral arrangements and deliveries could they produce each day?

____4_____ additional floral arrangements

____5____ additional deliveries

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Time it takes Anita to finish one floral arrangement = 30 minutes

Time it takes Anita to make a delivery = 40 minutes

Time it takes Jerome to finish one floral arrangement = 10 minutes

Time it takes Jerome to make a delivery = 30 minutes

b) Absolute Advantage: Jerome will finish 3 floral arrangements (30/10), whereas Anita can only finish 1 in 30 minutes.

c) Anita's opportunity cost is the time it will take her to make a delivery using the same time it takes her to finish one floral arrangement.  In 30 minutes time, she can only make (30/40) 0.75 deliveries.  Using 40 minutes of making a delivery, she can finish 1.33 (40/30) floral arrangements.

d) Anita's comparative advantage in making deliveries is based on her opportunity cost when compared with Jerome's opportunity cost of making deliveries.

                                          Floral            Delivery      Total hours

                                    Arrangement

                                                        Anita                  Jerome      Total

Number of floral arrangements     8 (240/30)        24 (240/10)   32

Number of deliveries                      3 (120/40)           4 (120/30)     7

                                                         Anita                  Jerome

Number of floral arrangements       0                       36 (360/10)  36
