Sophie [7]

Answer:

The statement is true

Explanation:

Tightening monetary policy or curbing money supply in an economy is a move by Federal Reserve to control inflation or bring down over-heated economic growth.

Money supply is curbed by increasing short-term interest rates, thereby increasing cost of borrowing and making borrowing less attractive to public. This increase in short-term rates, also called Federal fund rates are usually greater than long-term interest rates prevailing in the market.

Two companies share a market, in which they currently make $5,000,000 each. Both need to determine whether they should advertise

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

Two Companies. We shall call them A and B.

If A and B decide not to advertise, they both get $5,000,000.

If A advertises and B does not then A captures $3 million from B at a cost of $2 million meaning their payoff would be,

= 5 million - 2 million + 3 million

= $6 million.

A will have $6 million and B will have $2 million as $3 million was captured from them. This scenario holds true if B is the one that advertises and A does not.

If both of them Advertise, they both reduce their gains by $2 million while capturing $3 million from each other so they'll essentially both have just $3 million if they both decide to advertise.

With the above scenarios, it is better for both companies to ADVERTISE if there is NO COLLUSION. This is because it ensures that they do not get the lowest payoff of $2 million if the other company decides to advertise and they do not.

However, if they DO COLLUDE. They must both decide that NONE of them SHOULD ADVERTISE and this would leave them with their original $5 million each which is a higher payoff than the $3 million they will both receive if they were both advertising.

Cal Lury owes $25,000 now. A lender will carry the debt for four more years at 10 percent interest. That is, in this particular

vitfil [10]

Answer:

$6,185.31

Explanation:

Value of debt at end of 4 years = $25,000 * (1 + 10%)^4

Value of debt at end of 4 years = $25,000 * (1.10^4)

Value of debt at end of 4 years = $25,000 * 1.4641

Value of debt at end of 4 years = $36,602.50

Let x be the annual payments

x * [1 - (1 + 13%)^-12] / 13% = $36,602.50

x * [1 - (1.13)^-12] / 13% = $36,602.50

x * [1 - 0.2307059] / 13% = $36,602.50

x * 0.7692941/0.13 = $36,602.50

x * 5.91764692 = $36,602.50

x = $36,602.50/5.91764692

x = 6185.313266375142

x = $6,185.31

So therefore, his annual payment will be $6,185.31.

Janice is unsure about her future career path. She has grown up on her family farm, but she is also interested in medicine. Jani

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Instead of joining groups to learn more about the two fields, Janice should job shadow in the medical career and also her family members on the job. By job shadowing, she would get a better feel for what the work environment and everyday life would be like in that career instead of just what some groups teach about the different fields. Medical and farming are two large career fields with any different smaller job opportunities within.
