jeyben [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

D. The ability to change the cost banks have to pay to borrow money.​

Explanation:

Reserve( FED) sets the discount rate and applies it on loans to commercial banks and other institutions. Commercial banks use the discount rate as the basis for determining the interest rate to charge customers for loans issued.

The discount rate is among the monetary policy tools available for use by the FED. An increase in the discount rate leads to a rise in commercial banks' loan interest rates, thereby discouraging borrowing. Reduced borrowing reduces the money supply in the economy.

suppose the absolute values of the intercept and slope of the demand function are approximated to be 10 and 3 respectively. if t
egoroff_w [7]

The equilibrium price is $0.5 while the equilibrium quantity is 8.5

From the Demand data that we have in this question,

Slope = 3

Intercept = 10

The demand equation

D = -3p + 10

D = 10 - 3p

The supply data

Slope = 5

Intercept  = 6

Supply equation

S = 6 + 5p

D = S

This is because at equilibrium, <u>supply = demand</u>

Therefore,

10-3P = 6+5P

collect like terms

10-6 = 3p+5p

4 = 8p

Divide through by 8

p =\frac{4}{8} \\\\= \frac{1}{2}

Equilibrium price = $0.5

The equilibrium quantity

D = 10 - 3*0.5

= 10-1.5

= 8.5

Therefore from the calculation, the equilibrium price is $0.5 and the equilibrium quantity is 8.5

When this market is in equilibrium, price is $ $6 and quantity bought and sold is 300 units. In equilibrium, consumer surplus is
Gnom [1K]

Answer: hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing information

Answer :

$900

$600

<u>Given the new price of $4 by Government </u>

quantity demanded = 400 units

quantity supplied = 150 units

quantity bought and sold = 150 units

  • $975
  • $150
  • $375

Explanation:

Consumer surplus ( area below demand curve and above $300  

= Area of triangle = 0.5 * base * height

= 0.5 * 300 ( 12 - 6 )  = $900

producer surplus ( area above supply curve and below $300

=  Area of the triangle = 0.5 * 300 ( 6-2 ) = $600

<u>Given the new price of $4 by Government </u>

quantity demanded = 400 units

quantity supplied = 150 units

quantity bought and sold = 150 units

Consumer surplus ( area of triangle + area of rectangle )

= 0.5 * 150 * ( 12-9 )+ L*B

= 0.5 * 150 * ( 3 ) + 150 * ( 9 - 4 )  = $975

producer surplus ( Area of triangle )

= 0.5 * 150 * (4-2) = $150

deadweight loss ( area of triangle )

= 0.5 * ( 300 - 150 ) ( 9-4 )

= $375

Delicious77 [7]

Ivan's marginal benefit if he decides to stay open for six hours instead of five hours is $20. The marginal benefit can be solved by subtracting the total revenue of the equivalent hours.

$550 (6 hours) - $530 (5 hours) = $20
