Answer:

What is the Value of Bank Deposits?

bank deposits = bank reserves / required reserve ratio = $200 / 20% = $1,000

What is the Money Supply?

money supply = bank deposits + currency held by the public = $1,000 + $1,00 = $2,000

Suppose that the Fed sells $50 worth of bonds in an "open market sale." Assuming that the public does not wish to change the amount of currency it holds, what is the new money supply after this open market purchase?

if the FED sells $50 worth of bonds, money supply will decrease by $50 x (1 / 20%) = $50 x 5 = $250

total money supply = $2,000 - $250 = $1,750

How do margin trades magnify both the upside potential and the downside risk of an investment position?
klio [65]

Answer and Explanation:

Margin trades work this way because they allow them to extend the amount of money invested regardless of whether the security's price drops or rises. In a more simplified way, we can state that the margin trade allows that even if the price of a security goes up or down, the invested money presents a percentage of gain or loss much bigger than the original value. This is because this money was deposited as a loan guarantee, allowing interest to run on it, increasing it.

Suppose two companies attempt to merge, and they operate in an industry where the postmerger Herfindahl-Hirschman index is 2,900
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Option B -  There are significant diseconomies of scope is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Option  A is, not a condition that could improve the probability that the justice department would approve the merger.

The Herfindahl-Hirschman index is based on a restricted definition of the product market or the impact of foreign competition, the merger might be allowed.

It might also be permitted if one of the firms is in financial trouble, or if significant economies of scale exist in the industry.

Significant diseconomies of scope would only serve to make the merger less likely to be accepted.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Which items are consequences of globalized trade for a developed nation that begins to import more goods and services from less-
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Globalization has resulted in great opportunities for businesses from less developed countries to take a hold over the more and much bigger markets from all over the world. Hence, the business over there has the opportunity for better capital flow, human capital, technology, larger export, and low-cost imports, And since they export their products at lower rates, the developed countries import from them more goods and services to save capital.

However,

1. These products lack quality.

2, And they are more prone to defects as well as wear and tear, as a developed country's technology is far superior to those of developing countries. However, now the developing countries are picking up the speed, and coming up with better technology to match that of developed, because of better education facilities, and proper training.
