Your bank account consists of a checking and savings accounts. Assume your expenses and earnings can be described by a random walk with an equal probability to spend one dollar or to receive one dollar in your checking account at every time interval. You are charged $5 for any transaction from the checking account to the savings account and viceversa. Also, assume that the cost per unit of cash, per unit of time r of keeping cash on hand is equal to $0.1 dollars for any dollar on hand per time period. Determine: (A) The optimal values of the two thresholds s and S, i. e., the amount of cash in your checking account restored after each transaction, and the maximum amount of cash in your checking account, respectively.

There are three factors that can affect the shape of the treasury yield curve (r* t , ip t , and mrp t ) and five factors that can affect the shape of the corporate yield curve (r* t , ip t , mrp t , drp t , and lp t ). the yield curve reflects the aggregation of the impacts from these factors. suppose the real risk-free rate and inflation rate are expected to remain at their current levels throughout the foreseeable future. consider all factors that affect the yield curve. then identify which of the following shapes that the us treasury yield curve can take. check all that apply.a. downward-sloping yield curveb. upward-sloping yield curvec. inverted yield curve

Which of the following is likely not a benefit of requiring a grand jury to listen to and examine all of the evidence against a person suspected of committing a serious crime and then independently deciding whether or not to hand down an indictment? 1.the grand jury system provides the accused another safeguard against being sent to trial and facing conviction based on flawed evidence. 2.the members of the grand jury are drawn from the community and are empowered to render independent decisions about whether or not the government has collected enough evidence to bring an individual to trial. 3.the grand jury’s decision can provide prosecutors insight into what is necessary to build a sufficient case if a similar crime is presented later. 4.the grand jury is impaneled to rubber-stamp prosecutors’ cases, which makes it possible for more cases to reach trial.
