Answer:
The bank will create excess reserve of $200 billion
Explanation:
The question measures the size of credit expansion associated with the new currency deposit. the computation below shows how excess reserves can be computed.
Money multiplier = 1
/Legal Reserve Ratio = 1/0.2 = 5
Excess Reserve Created = A x (1
/Legal Reserve Ratio)
Where: A = New currency deposit = $40
Legal Reserve Ratio = 0.20
Excess Reserve Created = $40 x (1/0.2) = $40 x 5 = $200 billion
The legal reserve of 5 indicates that for every unit of money reserved by banks, they are able to create 5 units of same.
The money creation capability of the banking system as a whole is depends on the legal reserve ratio. Legal reserve ratio is a fraction of a bank deposit which the law requires them to hold. The bank can only lend the balance after deducting the legal reserve.
Answer:
Maple Leaf, Inc.
Inventory Turnover:
b. Greater than 2 but less than 3
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
1) Average inventories:
Raw materials $2,500,000
Work-in-process $1,000,000
Finished goods $800,000
Total average inventory $4,300,000
Cost of goods sold = $12,000,000
Inventory Turnover = Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory
= $12,000,000/$4,300,000
= 2.79 times
2) Inventory turnover is a financial ratio that shows the number of times in a year that inventory has been sold by Maple Leaf, Inc. When it divides the number of days, say 360 days in a year, the ratio that comes out shows the number of days it takes Maple to sell its inventories.

Despite this warning, her decision to drive to the store reflects her negligence i.e. 'intentional action that falls below the legal standard for preventing unreasonable damage or harm.' Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
