A person who has been managing a dry cleaning store for $30,000 per year decides to open her own dry cleaning store. The expenses are $35,000 for salaries (excluding the owner's), $10,000 for supplies, $8,000 for rent, $2,000 for utilities, and $5,000 for interest on a bank loan. The revenues of the store during the first year of operation are $100,000. The total accounting profit is

Calculate: the accounting profit Accounting profit = TR - explicit costs = 100000 - 60000 = $40000

If there is a 1:1 ratio of a change in the money supply to a change in investment, in order to contract AD by $2 billion, by how much would you need to change the money supply if the marginal propensity to consume is .8?

Change in AD= Me x Change in I-2bil= 1/1-0.8 x CHange in I = -400 mil

Remember that the desired change in the money supply is $400 million. If the Fed wants to change the amount of reserves by using the reserve requirement instead of by selling bonds, what would the reserve requirement need to be in order to change the amount of reserves by $50 million? (Your answer will be a percentage, not a dollar amount.)

Change in AD= mm x Change in R-400 = 1/rr x 50-8= 1/rrrr= ⅛ = 12.5%

If the reserve requirement is .05, how many dollars worth of bonds would the Federal Reserve need to sell in order to bring about this $400 million contraction?

Change in I = Mm x Change in R-400= 1/.05 x Change in R= -20 mil

Suppose you want to increase the money supply by 7.5 million. if the rr is 10%, by how much would you need to increase reserves?

Change in MS= 1/rr x Change in R7.5 = 1/0.1 x change in R=0.75 = 750,000

Suppose the reserve requirement is 5% and the total amount of reserves grows by $100,000. By how much will the money supply grow?

Change in MS= 1/rr x change in R ( 20 x 100,000 = 2,000,000)

A person who has been managing a dry cleaning store for $30,000 per year decides to open his own dry cleaning store. The expenses are $35,000 for salaries (excluding the owner's), $10,000 for supplies, $8,000 for rent, $2,000 for utilities, and $5,000 for interest on a bank loan. The total economic cost

Economic profit ($) = Business profit - Implicit cost= 40,000 - 35,000= 5,000

And what if the inflation had been 6%?

Ir = 7-6=1%

Suppose the reserve requirement is 5%. Calculate the money multiplier.

A person who has been managing a dry cleaning store for $30,000 per year decides to open her own dry cleaning store. The expenses are $35,000 for salaries (excluding the owner's), $10,000 for supplies, $8,000 for rent, $2,000 for utilities, and $5,000 for interest on a bank loan. The revenues of the store during the first year of operation are $100,000. The total economic profit is

economic profit = TR - explicit costs - implicit costs . 100000 - 60000 - 30000 = $10000

A person who has been managing a dry cleaning store for $30,000 per year decides to open his own dry cleaning store. The expenses are $35,000 for salaries (excluding the owner's), $10,000 for supplies, $8,000 for rent, $2,000 for utilities, and $5,000 for interest on a bank loan. The explicit costs are $

explicit costs =salaries + supplies + rent + utilities + interest on the bank loan. 35000 + 10000 + 8000 + 2000 + 5000 = $60000.
