You are 18 years old, opening your first savings account, and are considering three options: BANK A is not FDIC insured, has an interest rate of 5%, and a minimum deposit of $25. BANK B is FDIC insured, has an interest rate of 0.01%, and a minimum deposit of $50. Bank C is FDIC insured, has an interest rate of 0.02%, and a minimum deposit of $10,000. All three have fees competitive with other banks. Which bank is the best option?

Suppose the number of firms you compete with has recently increased. you estimated that as a result of the increased competition, the demand elasticity has increased from –2 to –3 (i. e., you face more elastic demand). you are currently charging $10 for your product. what is the price that you should charge if demand elasticity is -3?

A) plot the m1 and m2 money stock in the us from 1990-2015. (hint: you may use the data tools provided by fred.) (b) plot the nominal interest rate from 1960 to 2014. (hint: you can either use the daily interest rates for selected u. s. treasury, private money market and capital market instruments from or the effective federal funds rate fromfred.) (c) the consumer price index (cpi) is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. intuitively, the cpi represents the cost of living or the average price level. plot the cpi from 1960 to 2013.(d) the inflation rate is the yearly percentage change in the average price level. in practice, we usually use the percentage change in the cpi to compute the inflation rate. plot the inflation rate from 1960 to 2013.(e) explain the difference between the ex-ante and ex-post real interest rate. use the fisher equation to compute the ex-post real interest rate. plot the nominal interest rate and the ex-post real interest rate from 1960 to 2013 in the same graph.
