Answer:

d. directly increase by $2 and the money-creating potential of the commercial banking system will increase by $6

Explanation:

Note: The organized table of the question is attached as picture below

Total increase in money supply = (1/Reserve ratio)*2

Total increase in money supply = (1 / 0.25) * 2

Total increase in money supply = 4 * 2

Total increase in money supply = 8.

Out of which 2 is directly increased because fed deposits 2 into checking deposits and 6 is indirectly increased.

Kipish [7]

Answer: C. inefficiently low; inefficiently high

Explanation:

If the cotton farmers are not made to pay for the damage that their pesticides cost then they will maintain production at a relatively high level because their input costs will be relatively low. As a result of this high level of production, the price of the goods will be relatively low as well. The point at which both market equilibrium quantity and price are at in this scenario are considered inefficient because they are not taking into account, the true cost of production being the effects of the pesticides being used.

However, if they are made to pay for this negative externality that they are the cause of, it will increase their production cost and force them to reduce production to keep these costs low. As they reduce production, the market price will increase as supply is less.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

When  ATC curve is​ decreasing, we know that the MC curve is

below the ATC curve​, and when the ATC curve is​ increasing, we know that MC is  above the ATC curve

Explanation:

ATC refers to average total cost and MC refers to marginal cost, these both curve derive from total cost when MC is below ATC curve it shows that MC is less than ATC at that point ATC is falling.

Likewise, when MC is above ATC curve it shows MC is grater than ATC curve and at that point ATC is rising.

furthermore, when MC is equal to ATC at that point ATC is at minimum point.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Receivables turnover ratio = 5

Explanation:

Receivables turnover ratio = Net Credit Sales / Average accounts receivable

Receivables turnover ratio = $100,000/$20,000

Receivables turnover ratio = 5

Average accounts receivable = (Beginning Account Receivable + Ending Account Receivable) /2

Average accounts receivable = ($15,000+$25,00)/2

Average accounts receivable = $40,000/2

Average accounts receivable = $20,000
