Occasionally our economy experiences an unusual combination of rising prices and high unemployment. economists have given this unusual pairing the name stagflation.

Stagflation is a combination of the words ‘stagnation’ and ‘inflation’. It refers to the economic trend where there is rising prices yet high levels of unemployment.

It leads to an intractable situation where policy initiatives to boost economic growth such as expansionary monetary policy worsens the inflation rate, while attempts to rein in inflation has a further dampening effect on the economy. It is often caused by poor economic policies.

Stagflation was observed in the US economy during the oil crisis of the 1970s that caused a major recession. But inflation and unemployment rates were at a high during this time.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": improve; rise.

Explanation:

Terms of Trade measures the efficiency of a country's trade. It is a ratio which compares the exports of a country with its imports. It is <em>calculated by dividing the export value by the import value, and by multiplying the result by one hundred (100)</em>. A terms of trade figure higher than 100, means a country exporting goods at a higher value than its imports.

<em>Given the case that there is no willingness to trade in an economy after a growth, the most possible scenario to take place is that the trade terms will </em>improve <em>as a result of the decrease in the demand of imports and assuming the level of exports keeps at the constant level that allowed the economic growth or if it even </em>rises<em>.</em>

gdp is the best measurement of a country's economy. explain why you agree or disagree with this statement
Sonja [21]
GDP is designed to assess the production of goods in a market economy by output. However, it is not efficient in accounting for public and private services that without output that are easily countable by the number of units produced. GDP is not also well suited in measuring improvements in the diversity and quality of goods and services. It is also poor in estimating the depletion of resources. Finally, it doesn't also reflect the degradation of the environment involved in the production process.
