The Fed And Interest Rates
... a pace, or
inflation is getting out of hand, it can take actions to slow spending and
decrease the money supply. This corresponding with the money equation MV = PY,
by lowering both M and V, P and Y can stabilize if they are increasing too
rapidly. The Fed does this by selling securities on the open market. This, in
turn, reduces bank's reserves and forces the interest rate to rise so the banks
can afford to make loans. People seeing these rises in rates will tend to sell
their low interest assets, in order to acquire additional money, they tend move
toward higher yielding accounts, also further increasing the rate. Soon this
small change by the Fed affects all ...

U.S Auto Industry's Market Share And Fluctuations
... of four major vehicle manufacturers- Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile, and
Oakland which became Pontiac. Presently, General Motors is made up of Buick,
Cadillac, Oldsmobile, Chevrolet, Pontiac, and Saturn. During the first thirty
years of operation GM's only major competition was from U. S. manufacturers.
However, since the first foreign truck was imported from Japan in 1956, GM's
share of the market began to decline. Foreign cars were smaller, more fuel
efficient, less expensive, and often more reliable than their American
counterparts. General Motor's market share dipped from nearly 44% in 1973 to
below 30% in 1985. In response to this sudden drop in its share of ...

Should Top Executives Make The Money They Do?
... the issue of the pay that top executives make, and the
reasons why they do. It also suggests improvements that can be made to make the
system better.
High Pay Seems Small When Compared To Company Profits
Many companies pull in profits that are extremely high. When an employee of
such a companies salary is compared to the amount of profit that the company
earns, it starts to seem reasonable. It only makes sense that if the employee
is directly responsible for the success of their company, then they deserve to
get their payback. It seems ironic, but many salaries even look small once
compared with a companies profits.
Top Executives Are Under A Lot Of Pressu ...

The Use Of Credit Cards
... on their credit cards. This frightening number,
averaging about $3,900 per family, is just as bad for the economy as it is
for the consumers. In September of 1995, for example, The AT&T Universal
card charged $15 per month for late fee to people who paid their bills just
one day after the due date. Visa, on the other hand, was charging the
penalty fees for as little as a dollar over the limit, plus an interest of
up to 24.9 percent per year. In the second quarter of 1995, overdue
payments as a percentage of outstanding balance hit 3.267 percent. That is
the highest mark since recession of 1991.

The Economic Impact Of The New Telecommunications Legislation
... 1992, p7). Telecommunications helps to overcome the obstacles
of distance in a vast country such as Canada, permitting remote communities to
benefit from services taken for granted in large urban centres. More than 98
percent of Canadian households have a telephone, and there are more than 15
million telephone lines for a population of nearly 27 million(Dept. of
Communications, 1992, p7). It is therefore not surprising that Canadians are
among the biggest users of telecommunications in the world. For example, in 1990,
Canadians made more than three billion long-distance calls (Dept. of
Communications, 1992, p8).
Innovations made possible through tele ...

Why Are Gasoline Prices Going Up So High?
... them a favor. Maybe it's time that they start playing fairly and
stop feeling so sorry for themselves!!!
According to many articles, Americans have a lot more to be thankful for than
they do to complain about. For one, cars use gas a lot more efficiently than
they did in the past. According to Royko, "even today's luxury cars give you
better gas mileage than the cheapest Chevies, Fords and Plymouths did not that
long ago." What does this mean? This means that gas prices should logically go
up. It's the basic law of supply and demand. It's true that more Americans are
driving, but the gasoline suppliers still deserve to get paid fairly.
And what about infla ...

Pan Am's passenger traffic was strong in 1988. An increase of 12.2

increases in the market, enhanced management systems and procedures, as
well as programs to reduce the dependence on wholesale ticket distributions
throughout the Atlantic, Latin America, Domestic, and systemwide.

The Great Depression And The "New Deal"
... These programs helped to eventually pull the economy and the
nation out of the Great Depression. The main question is why the
democratic administration and FDR felt these programs would work, and why
they felt such a dramatic change in the role of the government was needed.
For the answer we must turn to an economist by the name of John Maynard
Keynes. He developed an economic theory that said that the forces of
supply and demand operated to slowly in a serious recession, and the
federal government should step in and help stimulate the economy. This
theory became known as Keynesian Economics. In terms of the Great
Depression the economy was at a s ...
