Answer:

B. giving loans

Explanation:

The reserve requirement system requires commercial banks to maintain a small fraction of their deposits as a reserve. Only a small percentage of the checkable deposits is required to be held in the banks as reserves. The reserves requirement fractions vary with the monetary policy in place.  

The percentage of reserve requirement ranges from 3% to 10%. It would hardly get to 20%. The rest other bigger percentage ( over 80%) is available to be used to create loans.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

  • If a company has a profit margin of 10%, it means that the company earned a net income of $0.10 for each dollar of sales.  A 10% PROFIT MARGIN MEANS THAT THE COMPANY EARNED 10 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR OF REVENUE.
  • If a company's operating margin increases but its profit margin decreases, it could mean that the company paid more in interest or taxes.  OPERATING PROFIT = GROSS PROFIT - FIXED COSTS, NET PROFIT = OPERATING PROFIT - (INTERESTS AND TAXES). IF TAXES OR INTERESTS INCREASE, NET PROFITS DECREASE

Which is the best option for people who need the items immediately but cannot pay cash now?
professor190 [17]
<h2>Answer</h2>

Buy on Credit

<h3>Explanation</h3>

When in a liquidity problem and items have to be bought, buying on credit seems to be the best option. Buying on credit allows immediate ownership of required items whereas the money can be paid later as per the credit policy and terms. This permits the consumer to take the advantage of item ownership with delayed payment hence double advantage.

(Table: Cherry Farm) Use Table: Cherry Farm. If Hank and Helen have one of 100 farms in the perfectly competitive cherry industr
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

500

Explanation:

please find attached the table referred to in this question and a second table where marginal cost is included

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply.

in a perfect competition, price = marginal cost = marginal revenue

Marginal cost = total cost 2 - total cost 1

e.g. marginal cost at 2 units of output = $7 - $2 = $5

Hank and Helen would supply at the point  where marginal cost is equal to $5.

looking at the second attached table, there are two points where marginal cost is equal to $5. at output 1 and output 5.

at output one, Hank and Helen would be earning a loss because total cost is greater than total revenue. so they would not supply at this point.

at output five, Hank and Helen would earn a profit and thus would supply at 5 units of output.

Since all firms face and identical cost structure, the industry supply would be 100 x 5 = 500 pounds
