The Federal Reserve (or Fed) often executes its policy by selling or buying U.S. government securities in the open market, which

dem82 [27]

Answer:

a) When interest rates on U.S. government securities increases, then the Federal Reserve sells those securities in the open market in order to decrease the money supply. This is contractionary monetary policy of the Federal Reserve. As interest rates are indirectly affected by open market operations, the Federal Reserve sells securities on the open market to reduce the amount of money in circulation to combat rising inflation in the economy.

(b) The federal funds rate, the interest rates charged on the loans to individuals and firms and the rates of bank deposits will increase. As a result, the demand for bank deposits will increase and the demand for other debt securities will decrease. This in turn will increase the yield offered on these instruments.

Malik Boykin is paid $8.20 per hour. and time and a half for any work over 40 hours

Viefleur [7K]

<u>Pay of Malik Boykin:</u>

Step 1:

Adding the total hours for each week:

Week of 3/10 = 5.5+6+9+12+7 = 39.5

Week of 3/17 = 8+8.5+9+13+4.5+4 = 47

Step 2:

Any sum of 40 hours or less gets multiplied by the hourly salary:

Week of 3/10: $39.5\times\$8.20 = \$323.90$ - That's the pay for that week

Week of 3/17: $40\times\$8.20 = \$328$

Step 3:

For hours worked over 40 the salary is 1.5 times the normal salary:

$\Rightarrow\$8.20\times1.5 = \$12.30$

Now multiply the hours over 40 for that week by the time and a half:

$\Rightarrow\$12.30\times7 = \$86.10$

And adding it to the $\$328$ we get,

$\$328+\$86.10=\$414.10$

Therefore, Week of 3/10: $\bold{\$323.90}$ and Week of 3/17: $\bold{\$414.10}$

Mariulka [41]

<h3>A rational decisionmaker takes an action if and only if:?</h3>

The marginal cost is a term that refers to the change in the total cost that takes place as a direct consequence of an increase in the quantity of a product or service that is produced.

In the field of economics, this phrase refers to the amount of money that must be spent in order to produce one more unit of output.

In conclusion, if the marginal benefit of the action is greater than the marginal cost of the action, then the action will be conducted by a rational actor if there is a positive expectation that the action will have a net positive outcome. Alternative A

the price index was 170 in the first year, 180 in the second year, and 195 in the third year. the inflation rate was about a. 5.

OlgaM077 [116]

The inflation rate was 5.9 percent between the first and second years, and 8.3 percent between the second and third years. Hence, A is the correct option.

When we compare the values for any two periods or locations it reveals the average change in prices between the two periods or the average difference in prices between locations, the price index is a measure of relative price changes.

Take the Market Basket's price for the interest-bearing year, divide it by the Market Basket's price for the base year, then multiply the result by 100 to get the Price Index.

Price indices typically pick a base year and set that year's index value to 100. As a proportion of that base year, every other year is expressed. Let 2000 serve as the basis year in this illustration: In 2000, the index's initial value was $2.50; since $2.50/$2.50 = 100%, the index's current value is 100.

Which of the following would be most likely associated with the expansionary phase of the economic business cycle?

Marat540 [252]

I’m not exactly sure but- expansion is the phase of the business cycle where real GDP grows for two or more consecutive quarters, moving from a trough to a peak. This is typically accompanied by a rise in employment, consumer confidence, and equity markets. Expansion is also referred to as an economic recovery. Knowing this, it cannot be A where unemployment is high or B where inflation is high because inflation is the rise in the general level of prices where a unit of currency effectively buys less than it did in prior periods, it shouldn’t be D because the profits wouldn’t be on a decline, so making a guess using elimination it’s most likely C businesses produce more and hire workers
