Explanation / Answer

48. Maximum checkable deposit expansion in the banking system is equal to the excess reserve multiply by the money multiplier.

Excess reserves is that part of reserve held by the commercial bank used for lending. By lending the excess reserve, the banking system expands the money supply in the economy, and money multiplier decides the how much the expansion of money supply would happen.

So, the correct answer is an option (C).

49. Others things being equal, an appreciation of U.S. dollar would make U.S goods costlier in the world market, which would lead to a fall in the exports of U.S and decrease in aggregate demand of the U.S. On the other side, appreciation of U.S dollar would make the imports for U.S cheaper, leads to rising imports. Since, export is falling and import is increasing, means there is a decrease in net export (i.e., export minus import).

So, the correct answer is an option (B).
