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.

Holding other factors constant, if bad weather destroys the annual crop for carrots, it causes the supply curve for carrots to
Iteru [2.4K]

Options:

<em>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</em>

<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>

<em>c. Stay the same</em>

<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.

What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.

hornton Computer Services, Inc. has been in business for six months. The following are basic ­operating data for that period: Mo
nignag [31]

Answer:

The total monthly fixed cost and the variable cost per hour is $1,540 and $23

The average contribution margin per hour is $27

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High service hours - low service hours)

= ($11,200 - $4,300) ÷ (420 hours - 120 hours)

= $6,900 ÷ 300 hours

= $23

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High service hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $11,200 - (420 hours × $23)

= $11,200 - $9,660

= $1,540

For computing the contribution margin per hour, first we have to compute the revenue per hour which is shown below:

= Revenue ÷ service hours

= $6,000 ÷ 120 hours

= $50

We know that,

The contribution per hour = Revenue per hour - variable cost per hour

                                           = $50 - $23

                                           = $27

A monopoly is considering selling several units of a homogeneous product as a single package. a typical consumer's demand for th
just olya [345]

Answer:

A. 15 units

B. $130

Explanation:

In order to solve this, we need to use the profit maximization condition for monopoly.

MR = MC will give us the optimal quantity and price for the monopolist.

The consumer's demand for the product is:

Qd = 80 - 0.5P

Therefore, we have:

P = (80 / 0.5) - (Qd / 0.5)

P = 160 - 2Qd

Recall that, Total Revenue:

TR = P * Q

So, in this case TR = 160Q - 2Q^2

MR = d(TR) / dQ = 160 - 4Q

Now, MR = MC

160 - 4Q = 100

4Q = 160 - 100

4Q = 60

Q = 60 / 4

Q = 15 units.

Now, P =160 - 2Q

P = 160 - 2(15)

P = 160 - 30 = 130

The optimal number of units to be placed in a package will therefore be 15 units while the firm should charge $130 for this package.

Chegg - Discuss the differences of productivity measurement in service and manufacturing. Why is productivity improvement more d
Svetllana [295]

Explanation:

The measurement of productivity in service and manufacturing is different in the sense of the ability to measure productivity, as a service has different characteristics that are Intangibility, Inseparability, Variability and Perishability, it is more difficult to measure its productivity, for example, a service is variable, so even if there are standards for the provision of that service, there are issues that will vary and this can change productivity.

There is also the fact that if the productivity measured by the capacity in the service sector is influenced by the loss of quality of the same, as customers may feel hurt if there is a rush in a service provided, for example, so that the service is more productive .
