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.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

A. $2,500

B. $60

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine How much in cash or securities must you put into your brokerage account if the broker's initial margin requirement is 50% of the value of the short position

Initial Margin = 100*$50*50%

Initial Margin = $2,500

Therefore The amount of securities that you must put into your brokerage account if the broker's initial margin requirement is 50% of the value of the short position is $2,500

b. Calculation to determine How high can the price of the stock go before you get a margin call if the maintenance margin is 30% of the value of the short position

First step is to calculate the Maintenance Margin per share

Maintenance Margin per share = $50*30%

Maintenance Margin per share =$15

Second step is to calculate the Rise in price required

Rise in price required = $50*50% - $15

Rise in price required= $10

Now let calculate How high can the price of the stock go

Price of stock=$50+$10

Price of stock= $60

Therefore How high can the price of the stock go before you get a margin call if the maintenance margin is 30% of the value of the short position is $60

After visiting several automobile dealerships, Richard selects the used car he wants. He likes its $11,500 price, but financing
aksik [14]

Explanation:

I = Prt

I = (10000)(.11)(4) = $4400

Total Cost = Down Payment + Principal Borrowed + Interest

Total Cost = 2000 + 8000 + 4400

= $14,400

Monthly Payment = (Principal Borrowed + Total interest) / Total number of payments

Monthly Payment = (10,000 + 4400) / 48

= $300

APR= (2 × n × I) / [P × (N + 1)]

APR = (2 × 12 × 4400) / [10,000 × (48+1)]

= 21.55%

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

The public debt owed by Eastland is $400 million

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of public debt in Eastland.

Public debt refers to the amount of money owed by a country to external borrowers.

It doesn’t include such debt that the country owes itself. For example, debts owed by one agency of government to another.

Hence to calculate the public debt of Eastland, we add the amount of debts owed by citizens of Eastland + Amount of debts owed by foreign citizens in Eastland .

Amount of debt owed by citizens of Eastland is $200 million while the amount of debt owed by foreign citizens is also $200 million.

Mathematically the public debt will be ; $200 million + $200 million = $400 million
