If a bank has a required reserve ratio of 25 percent and there is $10,000 in deposits, what is the maximum amount of loans that can be made by this bank
Answer: $40,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the maximum amount of loans that can be made by this bank will be calculated as:
= Deposit × 1/Reserve ratio
= $10000 × 1/25%
= $10000 × 1/0.25
= $10000 × 4
= $40000
Therefore, the maximum increase in money supply is $40000.

g if you deposit $2,000 into an account and it earns 6% interest, how much will you have in 11 years
Answer:
Amount earned = $3320
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Principal, P = $2,000
Interest rate, R = 6%
Time, T = 11 years
To find the simple interest;
S.I = PRT/100
S.I = (2000*6*11)/100

The expenditure and income approaches to calculating GDP arrive at the same final number, but they calculate that number in different ways. To illustrate, consider the possible effects of the following transactions on GDP:
1. Daesun pays Awesome Foods Market $1,100 to cater his daughter's engagement party. He's attracted by Awesome Foods Market's guarantee that he'll be happy with the catering, or he'll get his money back.
2. Awesome Foods Market pays JoAnn's Catering $950 to cater the party.
3. JoAnn's Catering buys plasticware worth $200 from Kostko.
Required:
Compute contributions to GDP, using the expenditure approach.
Answer:
Only the amount spent by Manuel would be in included in the calculation of GDP
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Consumption spending includes spending by households on goods and services. Consumption spending includes :
spending on durables - e.g. laptop
spending on nondurables - e.g. clothes, food
spending on services - e.g. payment of hospital bill
the purchase of a textbook by a student is an example of consumption spending on durable goods
Investment - It includes purchases of goods and services made by businesses in the production of goods and services
the airplane purchased by the airline would be used to provide services for airline customers. Also, the packing boxes bought by Amazon would be used in delivering goods to customers
Government spending - It includes government consumption expenditure and gross investment. The purchase of a new limousine for the president is an example of consumption expenditure
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
1. services not rendered to oneself
2. Activities not reported to the government
3. illegal activities
4. sale or purchase of used products
5. sale or purchase of intermediate products

On January 1, Year 1, Jing Company purchased office equipment that cost $15,200 cash. The equipment was delivered under terms FOB shipping point, and transportation cost was $1,300. The equipment had a five-year useful life and a $5,700 expected salvage value. Assume that Jing Company earned $17,400 cash revenue and incurred $11,000 in cash expenses in Year 3. The company uses the straight-line method. The office equipment was sold on December 31, Year 3 for $8,900. What is the company's net income (loss) for Year 3?
a. $4,752 and $12,672
b. $2,200 and $12,760
c. $2,851 and $16,151
d. $0 and $13,300
Answer:
$3,120
Explanation:
First and foremost, annual depreciation expense is determined using the below straight-line method formula:
annual depreciation=total cost of equipment-salvage value/useful life
total cost of equipment=purchase price+ transportation cost
total cost of equipment=$15,200+$1,300
total cost of equipment=$16,500
salvage value=$5,700
useful life =5 years
annual depreciation=($16,500-$5,700)/5
annual depreciation=$2,160
net income=cash revenue-cash expenses-annual depreciation+profit/(loss) on disposal
profit or(loss)=sales proceeds-book value
book value=cost-accumulated depreciation for 3 years
book value=$16,500-($2160*3)=$10,020
profit/(loss) on disposal=$8,900-$10,020=-$1,120
net income= $17,400-$11,000-$2,160-$1,120
net income=$3,120

The income expenditure model predicts that if the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75 and the federal government increases spending by $100 billion, real GDP will increase by:_______
a) $100 billion.
b) $750 billion.
c) $400 billion.
d) $300 billion.
Answer:
Option c ($400 billion) is the correct answer.

Your client is employed by a large multinational corporation headquarteredin your city. She worked for the company in her native country for five years before being assigned to a U.S.-based position last year. she knows that her employer arranged for a visa for her, but he is unsure about what type of visa and doesn't have any of her paperwork. Your client is likely:__________A) an undocumented immigrantB) a foreign nationalC) a naturalized citizenD) a lawful permanent resident
Answer:
The correct options A) an undocumented immigrant.
Explanation:
Undocumented immigrants are foreign nationals who are in the United States without legal documentation.
These immigrants either entered the US without being screened as required by immigration processes, or they entered the country on a temporary visa and stayed over the visa's expiration date, rendering the visa invalid.
This implies that your client is likely an undocumented immigrant. Therefore, the correct options A) an undocumented immigrant.
On the basis of this information, what were total maintenance costs when the company experienced 23,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $34.30 per hour. When activity jumped to 27,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $27.30.
a. On the basis of this information, the variable cost per machine hour was:___________
b. On the basis of this information, the fixed cost was:___________-
c. On the basis of this information, what were total maintenance costs when the company experienced 25,000 machine hours?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total cost for each activity level:
High activity level= 27,000*27.3= $737,100
Low activity level= 23,000*34.3= $788,900
Now, using the high-low method, we can determine the variable and fixed costs:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (788,900 - 737,100) / (27,000 - 23,000)
Variable cost per unit= $12.95 per machine-hour
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 788,900 - (12.95*27,000)
Fixed costs= $439,250
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 737,100 - (12.95*23,000)
Fixed costs= $439,250
Finally, for 25,000 hours:
Total cost= 439,250 + 12.95*2,5000
Total cost= $763,000
Leahy Corp. sells $300,000 of bonds to private investors. The bonds are due in five years, have a 6% coupon rate, and interest is paid semiannually. The bonds were sold to yield 4%. Group of answer choices The bonds were sold at a discount, with annual interest expenses more than $18,000 The bonds were sold at a discount, with annual interest expenses less than $18,000 The bonds were sold at a premium, with annual interest expenses more than $18,000 The bonds were sold at a premium, with annual interest expenses less than $18,000 The bonds were sold at par, with annual interest expenses equal to $18,000
Answer:
The bonds were sold at a premium, with annual interest expenses less than $18,000
Explanation:
r = 4% per annum = 4%*6/12 = 2%
n = 5 years * 2 = 10
Present value of annuity factor = [1 - (1+r)^(-n)] / r
Present value of annuity = [1 - (1.02)^(-10)] / 0.02
Present value of annuity = 8.982585
Interest payment = $300,000*6%*6/12
Interest payment = $9,000
Present value factor = 1/(1+r)^n
Present value factor = 1 / (1.02)^10
Present value factor = 0.8203483
Face value = $300,000
Selling value of bond = [8.982585*9000] + [0.8203483*300,000]
Selling value of = 80,843.265 + 246,104.49
Selling value of = 326,948. (Amount that bond are sold for is greater than 300,000 i.e at a premium).
Coupon rate payment = $300,000*6%
Coupon rate payment = $18,000
