Explanation / Answer

Which of the following is not a financial intermediary?

               

Ans. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is not a financial intermediary

If your bank receives a demand deposit of $20,000, and makes the maximum loan possible of $17,000, then the legal reserve requirement must be

(rr)*20000 = 17000

Then RR = 17000/20000 = 0.85

A recessionary gap implies an equilibrium level of output less than the full-employment level.

If G = T, the budget is balanced. (G-T) < 0 means that the government is running a surplus because T > G; and (X-M) < 0 means the external position is in deficit because imports are greater than exports. The Budget Deficit (G – T) – negative if in surplus, positive if in deficit.
