NATIONAL BANKS: Traditional banks that are chartered by the Comptroller of the Currency and are automatically members of the Federal Reserve System. The contrast to national banks are state banks, which are chartered by one of the fifty states. National banks tend to larger than state banks and whether justified or not tend to be slightly more prestigious. In the modern economy this distinction is less important than it was a few decades bank when state banks were subject to lesser state regulations than national banks.

Topic:
More Demand and More Supply
|
|
|
Market equilibrium is disrupted if both the demand (higher income) and supply (technological breakthrough) curves shift.- An increase in demand creates a shortage. Price and quantity tend to increase.
- An increase supply creates a surplus. Price declines and quantity increases.
- The combined effect is an obvious increase in quantity but a questionable change in price.
- At the new equilibrium the price is indeterminant.
- If demand shifts relatively more than supply, price is higher.
- If demand shifts relatively less than supply, price is lower.
