Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

Net export = exports – imports

The weekly incomes of shift foreman for a given industry follow a normal probability distribution. With a mean of $1,000 and a s
mylen [45]

Answer:

There is a 0.2419% for a foreman to earn either $1,100 or $900

Explanation:

We calculate the probability of a normal distribution of 0;1

(X-mean)/deviation = Z

(1,100 - 1,000)/100 = 100/100 = 1

900 - 1,00/100 = -100/100 = -1

Given the zame Z value, we have the same probability of a foreman to earn 1,100 or 900

As we are asked for the foreman salary, wewill calcualte the Z for non cumulative, just the probability of a foreman to earn 1,100 or 900 dollars.

We look into the normal distribution table for the value of z = -1 or 1

0.002419707  = 0.2419%

It takes Anne 3 hours to make a pie and 4 hours to make a shirt. It takes Mary 2 hours to make a pie and 5 hours to make a shirt
mina [271]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

An economic agent should specialise in the production of the good for which it has a comparative advantage in its production.

An economic agent has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with other economic agents.

Anne's opportunity cost in pie production = 4/3=1.33

Anne's opportunity cost in shirt production = 3/4 = 0.75

Mary's opportunity cost in pie production = 5/2 = 2.5

Mary's opportunity cost in shirt production = 2/5 = 0.4

Anne has a comparative advantage in the production of pies and Mary has a comparative advantage in the production of shirts.

Anne should specialise in pie production and Mary should specialise in shirt production.
