Answer:
Ten pounds of chicken to trade for at least <u>40</u> pounds of vegetables but not more than<u> 50</u> pounds of vegetables
Explanation:
Vegetables Chicken Trade Off Ratio
John 40 10 4:1 (40/10) or 1:0.25 (10/40)
George 25 5 5:1 (25/5) or 1:0.20 (5/25)
John has comparative advantage in Chicken and George has comparative advantage in Veggies because :
- John's chicken opportunity cost, in veggies < George (4<5). George's veggies opportunity cost, in chicken < John (0.20<0.25).
- George is more (5X) productive in veggies than chicken, than John (4X). John is less unproductive in chicken than veggies (1/4th), compared to George (1/5th).
So, John will sell Chicken to George & George will sell veggies to John. Gains from trade are when each get trade ratio better than their their own trade off ratio.
- It implies: John gets >' 4 pounds veggies per chicken pound' and George gets > '0.20 pound chicken per veggie pound'.
- Unitary method:- '1chicken : 4veggies' = '10chickens : 40veggies' and '0.20chicken : 1veggie' = '10chickens : 50 veggies' .
Answer:
$200 million
$30 million
Explanation:
When the requiredreserce ratio is 15 percent or 0.15 , then the money multiplier is (1 / required reserve ratio) or (1/0.15 = 0.67)
Now, change in money supply = money multiplier * open market purchase of government bonds.
Here , the Federal Reserve a $30 million open market purchase Of govemment bonds.
As a result of this;
Money Supply increases by (6.7 * $30 million) = $200 million.
This is the maximum amount the money supply could Increase.
Now, if the bank holds. $30 million as excess reserves, then money supply could increase by as much as $30 million. This is the smallest amount themoney supply could increase.
So, If the required reserve ratio is 15 percent the largest possible increase in the money supply that could result is $200 million- and the smallest possible increase is $30 million.
