The action of the bank will put decreased pressure on the money supply, and to reduce the impact of this action, the Fed could decrease the discount rate.

Basically, a decrease in discount rate will make it easy and cheaper for commercial banks to borrow money from Federal Reserve System and thus, results to increase in available credit and lending in the economy

Therefore, if the commercial banks decide to increase their holdings of excess reserves supposed to be remitted to Feds, then, this will put <u>decreased</u> pressure on the money supply, and the Fed would act by <u>decreasing</u> the discount rate.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

FV=5031.32844

FV≅$5031

Future worth at the end of 30 years will be most nearly $5031.

Explanation:

In order to find the Future value after 30 years, we are going to use the following formula:

FV=PV*(1+i)^n

where:

FV is the future value (End of 30 years)

PV is the present value ($500)

i is the interest rate=8%=0.08

n is the number of years (30 years)

Now,

FV=PV*(1+i)^n

FV=500*(1+0.08)^{30}

FV=5031.32844

FV≅$5031

Future worth at the end of 30 years will be most nearly $5031.

Gloria Rose works at College of Austin and is paid $ 30 per hour for a​ 40-hour workweek and​ time-and-a-half for hours above 40
Solnce55 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

1. The gross pay is

Straight time pay

= 40 hours × $30 per hour

= $1,200

overtime pay

= 40 hours × $30 per hour × 1.5

= $1,800

So, the total gross pay is

= $1,200 + $1,800

= $3,000

2. Now the net take home pay is

Gross pay                        $3,000

Less: deductions

Income tax withholding (20%)  -$600

Employee OASDI tax (6.2%)  -$186

Employee medicare tax (1.45%) -$43.50

Net take home pay $2,170.50

3. Now the journal entries are

Wages expense $3,000

             To Income tax payable $600

             To Employee OASDI tax payable $186

             To Employee medicare tax payable $43.50

             To wages payable $2,170.50

(Being the wages expense is recorded)

We debited the expenses as it increased the expenses and credited all liabilities it increased the liabilities  

Wages payable Dr $2,170.50

         To cash  $2,170.50

(being cash paid is recorded)

For recording this we debited the wages payable as it reduced the liabilities and credited the cash as it also reduced the current assets
