A

To determine

The ways in which a $10,000 deposit into a checking account would initially affect a bank’s assets and liabilities:

Concept Introduction:

The Federal Reserve and banking system are responsible for the creation of money in the economy. The first step of this money creation process starts when the Federal Reserve injects money in the economy by buying bonds. This money is stored in a bank. Then, the bank would keep the required reserves with themselves, and lent the remaining excess reserves. These excess reserves will then be stored with some other bank and the other bank would also keep the required reserve and make a loan for the remaining amount. These excess reserves keep flowing in the economy, thus, creating money at every stage.

1. Imagine a society that produces military goods and consumer goods, which we'll call "guns" and "butter." a. Draw a production possibilities frontier for guns and butter. Using the concept of opportunity cost, explain why it most likely has a bowed-out shape. b. Show a point that is impossible for the economy to achieve. Show a point that is feasible but inefficient. c. Imagine that the society has two political parties, called the Hawks (who want a strong military) and the Doves (who want a smaller military). Show a point on your production possibilities frontier that the Hawks might choose and a point the Doves might choose. d. Imagine that an aggressive neighboring country reduces the size of its military. As a result, both the Hawks and the Doves reduce their desired production of guns by the same amount. Which party would get the bigger "peace dividend," measured by the increase in butter production? Explain.
A health study tracked a group of persons for five years. At the beginning of the study, 20%were classified as heavy smokers, 30% as light smokers, and 50% as nonsmokers. Resultsof the study showed that light smokers were twice as likely as nonsmokers to die duringthe five-year study, but only half as likely as heavy smokers.A randomly selected participant from the study died during the five-year period. Calculatethe probability that the participant was a heavy smoker
