Answer:
a) decrease in equilibrium price and an increase in equilibrium quantity.
Explanation:
As the input cost decreases for the companies the the supply of the goods increases hence the supply curve shifts rightwards.In the curve at the new equilibrium point the equilibrium price decreases and the equilibrium quantity increases.
Think it like if cost of creating anything is decreased for a company then the company will create more products .So there will be more products in the market.So to clear the products in the market the price will be reduced and the quantity of the product is more than before.
Answer:
A. the economy is producing at less than its potential output and has some cyclical unemployment.
Explanation:
Increase in government spending will increase domestic income, only if economy is producing at less than its potential output.
Increase in federal government spending raises the level of 'govt expenditure' in Aggregate Demand. This creates 'Excess Demand' (AD > AS). However, if the economy is at full employment level, i.e all the resources are already best efficiently utilised as per their production potential. Then, the economy can't increase its domestic income more than its full employment (full potential) level. So : Increase in government spending in full employment case, wont increase total production/ income/ employment further ; as the economy is already at full employment & can't increase economic activity beyond that.
Answer: Analogy
Explanation:
The method of forecasting that this example illustrate is analogy. Forecast by analogy refers to the forecasting method which simply assumes that two different kinds of situations have identical models and therefore share the same model of behaviour.
This can be infered from the situations that once the per capita GDP is known for the country, the per capita demand for the toys can be estimated.
