Answer:

True

Explanation:

When we apply the expectations theory, we assume that there is no risk premium associated to the securities (this theory applies to government securities). If the yield curve is upward sloping (positive slope), it means that the short term yields are expected to increase. The time value of money applies to all securities, including government securities, i.e. $1 today is worth more than $1 tomorrow.

Answer:

a defensive open market sale

Explanation:

The Trading Desk at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is in charge of carrying on the short term objectives specified by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). The Trading Desk engages in open market operations (OMO), which are the purchase and sale of Fed's securities.

In this case, in order to lower the float, the Trading Desk should carry on a defensive open market sale which should temporarily lower the interest rate. Defense open market operations are designed to offset temporary fluctuations, they shouldn't affect overall monetary policy.

Answer:

department store

Explanation:

A department store is a type of retailer that offers a wide range of diverse products. Each product group is classified into a department, thus the name "department store". When customers buy products, they usually check out near the exit of the whole department store, although there are some check-out counters in each department. Also, customer service is always present, mostly in the form of numerous sales clerks providing a helping hand.

They can include almost any range of products: toiletries, furniture, home decor, clothes, toys, hardware... Some famous examples are: Le Bon Marché in Paris, Selfridges in the UK, Macy's in the USA...

On the other hand, a <em>discount store</em> usually offers a broad product range, low prices, but little to none customer service. <em>Specialty stores</em> have a narrow target group as they offer a limited assortment.
