Answer:

Explanation:

The consumer credit protection act was inacted to protect employee from discharge by the employer in case there wage has been garnished in any one debt. However the provision has provided for some limit till which the garnishment can be done. The provision applies to all who receive earning for their personal services. The provision says the credit would be lesser of 25% of disposable income or by the amount which is greater than 30 times of minimum hourly wages (i.e $7.25).

Here in this case Geraldine Wolfe was paid biweekly and 80% was his disposable income. So the calculation would be as follow with 52 weeks in a year.

Disposable income = ($45000/52)*2*80%=$1385 (round off to nearest dollar)

25% of disposable income= $346.25 ($1385*25%)

With minimum wage of $7.25= $7.25*60 (biweekly)=$435

so the amount which is greater than the minimum hourly wage is =$1385-$435=$950

Conclusion:- So the maximum wage garnishment can be lesser of $ 346.25 or $950. Hence it will be $346.25 which is the maximum garnishment allowed for Geraldine's consumer credit garnishment.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

1. Reduces

2. Decrease in

3. Less Quantity

4. Increased level

5. Higher level

Explanation:

The challenge with the monetary policy introduced by the government is that it is a contractionary policy. A contractionary monetary policy fights inflation by reducing the money in supply in order to increase the cost of borrowing.

However, the problem with contractionary policy is that once the demands for goods and services decrease, the price of products will go down to entice people to consume and purchase. Once the price of products go down, the manufacturers are demotivated to produce more, hence production will go down.

Once production goes down, people are laid off work, and firms can no longer employ more leading to a higher level of unemployment.

The challenge therefore is that lowering inflation will lead to increased unemployment due to the ripple effects.
