a shortage occurs when quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded. The assertion is untrue.

What is scarcity?

When the amount required exceeds the amount supplied at the going rate, there is a shortage.

Three factors primarily contribute to shortages: rising demand, falling supply, and government action.

The term "scarcity" should not be confused with "shortage" as it is used in economics.

In a market that is operating normally, the quantity provided and the quantity sought are in equilibrium at a price determined by market forces. A shortage occurs when there is an imbalance between supply and demand for a good or service. The market is said to be in a condition of disequilibrium when this happens. This circumstance often only lasts a short while before the product is supplied and the market returns to normal.

exis [7]

Answer:

$500 (Favorable)

Explanation:

Given that,

Production cost = $7 per unit

Fixed costs = $23,000 per month

Units produced = 5,500

Actual total costs = $61,000

Standard cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost

                        = $23,000 + ($7 × 5,500)

                        = $23,000 + $38,500

                        = $61,500

Variance = Standard cost - Actual total costs

               = $61,500 - $61,000

               = $500 (Favorable)

Cassiopeia is a country facing an acute financial crisis. Coupled with a negative growth? rate, the rate of inflation in the eco
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

These two statements are correct:

A. The level of private sector spending on real assets in Cassiopeia has traditionally been low.

If the economist Danny Cox is recommending increases in government investment in real assets, it must be because the private sector is not investing enough.

An economy with low levels of private investment is an economy that in the long-run will not grow because investing is what produces capital accumulation, and what faciliates technological change, and those two factors are the most important variables for economic growth.

E. Irrespective of what policy measure the government implements to combat the crisis, inflation in Cassiopeia is likely to increase further.

This statement is correct if it is referring to the two policies recommended by economist Cox and unionist Boyle. Niether an income tax refund, or an increase in government spending are measures that tackle inflation, and in fact, both could increase inflation.

A income tax refund would put more cash in the hands of the public, and if demand for money is low, this would increase the velocity of circulation, and the more rapidly money circulates, the higher the inflation rate according to the quantity theory of money.

And more government spending is a form of expansionary fiscal policy that could increase inflation if the government finances the expenses by printing money.
