Assume that the required reserve ratio is 25 percent. If the Federal Reserve sells $120 million in government securities to the

earnstyle [38]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Reserve ratio = 25%

Fed reserve bank sells (securities) to public = $120 million

When a central bank sells the government securities to the public then as a result money supply in an economy decreases. This is an instrument of monetary policy known as " Open market Operations".

The supply of money is directly decreases by $120 million.

and

Money creating potential of banks = Amount of securities × $(\frac{1}{rr} - 1)$

= 120 × $(\frac{1}{0.25} - 1)$

= 120 × 3

= $360 million

Hence, a decrease in money supply could eventually reach a maximum of $360 million.

Unique Company provided the following budgeted data for July:Direct materials $60,000Direct labor $35,000Overhead $100,000Beginn

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold = $179,000

Explanation:

The cost of goods sold represent the amount of direct expenditure incurred on the units of goods sold for the period. It is computed as follows

Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + cost of production - closing inventory

Note that closing inventory represents the value of the goods yet to be sold at the end o the period while opening inventory represent the worth of goods brought forward from the previous period.

Cost of production is the addition of direct material, direct labour and production overhead.

The cost of goods sold for unique production is

Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + production - closing inventory

cost of gods sold = 20,000 + (60,000 + 35,000 + 100,000) - 36,000

= $179,000

Roadside Markets has 8.45 percent coupon bonds outstanding that mature in 10.5 years. The bonds pay interest semiannually. What

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Total $1,091.0030

Explanation:

The market value of the bond will be the sum of the present value of the cuopon payment and the maturity date:

present alue of cuopon payment will be calculate as present value of an ordinary annuity:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 42.25 (1,000 face value x 8.45% /2 payment per year)

time 21 (10 years at 2 payment per year+ 1 payment)

rate 0.036 (here we use the YTM rate /2 because there are 2 payment per year)

$42.25 \times \frac{1-(1+0.036)^{-21} }{0.036} = PV\\$

PV $615.1803

<u>Then, for the present value at maturity, we calculate the present value of a lump sum</u>

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 21.00

rate 0.036

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.036)^{21} } = PV$

PV 475.82

<u>Finally, we add them both together</u>

PV c $615.1803

PV m $475.8227

Total $1,091.0030
