(Answer to Q. 1)  B

(Answer to Q. 2)  D

(Answer to Q. 3)  Marginal benefit is the benefit someone in society obtains when another unit of a good or service is produced. Marginal cost is the cost to someone in society of producing another unit of a good or service.

(Answer to Q. 4)  D

(Answer to Q. 5)  B

(Answer to Q. 6)  Excess reserves equal the actual reserves minus the desired reserves. The actual reserves are 100,000. The bank wants to keep 10 percent of its checkable deposits as reserves, so the desired reserves are (900,000 )  0.10 = 90,000. So excess reserves equal 100,000 - 90,000 = 10,000.
