If the Fed wishes to ensure that inflation does not get out of hand, the Fed could lower the <em>target money supply growth rate</em>.

Inflation is when the general price levels in an economy increases persistently overtime.  The policy tools that the Fed can use to control general price levels in the economy is known as monetary policy.

There are two types of monetary policy :

  1. Expansionary monetary policy : these are steps taken by the Fed to increase the supply of money in the economy. These steps include reducing the <em>target Funds rate, decreasing the reserve requirements and carrying out open market purchase</em>.
  2. Contractionary monetary policy : these are steps taken to reduce the money supply in the economy. These steps include reducing the <em>target money supply growth rate and carrying out an open market sales. </em>

The Jameson Company just paid a dividend of $0.75 per share, and that dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5.50% p
belka [17]

Answer:

Jameson's current stock price, P0 is  $18.62

Explanation:

Required rate of return = Risk free rate + Beta*Market risk premium.

                                       = 4.00% + 1.15*5.00 %

                                       = 9.75 %

Current stock price, P0

= Expected dividend per share/(Required rate of return - Growth in dividends)

= (0.75 + 5.50%*0.75)/(0.0975 - 0.055)

= $18.62

Therefore, Jameson's current stock price, P0 is  $18.62

In the travlos (1999) study, more practice led to poorer retention and transfer test performance than less practice. a possible
kirill [66]
There are many variables that affect both retention of skill and the ability to transfer it; such variables are the frequency of practice blocks, amount of practice, homogeneity of tasks etc. It is important to distinguish between ability to perform and ability to teach. While ability to perform goes up, it is probably that at some point, certain parts of the motor skill become automated; the recnstruction process is not needed anymore and the reflex is automatic. Due to this, an individual might have high ability to perform, while low ability to teach. When there are only a few repetitions, automations have not set in yet and the experimental subject is conscious of the whole process; he has to mentally reconstruct it and thus it is easier for him to transfer his knowledge to another.
