<u>Complete Question:</u>
Why do some lenders require borrowers to secure credit?
A. To prevent defaults
B. To guarantee full repayment
C. To avoid any losses
D. To reduce risk
Answer:
Option D. To reduce risk
Explanation:
The reason is that the lender faces the credit risk which is the risk of the loss of the repayment in whole or in parts and the risk of default of the interest payments by the borrower.
So if we see the options, the option A, B and C are basically the credit risk that the lender is facing so the only option that is more general (not specific as the option A, B and C) and includes these three options is option D.
So the option D is correct.
Reserves - $20,000
Checkable Deposits - $200,000
Reserves Ratio - 10
Household Deposit - $15,000
Level of Excess Reserves - ?
Solution:
Checkable Deposits = $200,000 + $15,000 = $215,000
Required Reserves = 0.10 x $215,000 = $21,500
Excess Reserves = Actual Reserves - Required Reserves
= $35,000 - $21,500 = $13,500
Answer: Barry must include $6,000 in gross income from discharge of indebtedness
Explanation:
Feom the question above, we are told that Barry embezzled $6,000 from his employer and that even though his employer discovered the theft, the employ did not fire him and told him that he did not have to repay the $6,000 if he attend Alcoholics Anonymous. Barry met the conditions and the employer canceled the debt.
In this case, Barry will have to include the $6,000 he stole in gross income from discharge of indebtedness. The gross income has to do with the sum of the wages, profits, salaries, rents, interest payments, and every other earnings, before the deductions of taxes or other deductions. Since Barry stole the money and.he.has been forgiven, the $6,000 has to be included in the gross income from discharge of indebtedness.
