Answer:
D. Corn is not used in the production of other goods.
Explanation:
D is the only option that can be an argument for the total value of the corn produced to be included as corn for the same year in the GDP.
This is due to the fact that only the final production is recorded in the GDP, this means that no goods are registered that are going to be part of other productive processes (generally raw materials) since double accounting would be incurred.
If for example, corn were part of another productive process and this productive process begins next year, that part of the corn used to produce that good would be included in the GDP of the year in which the product will be produced (the one that corn is used in the production).
This means that the lobbyist can only rely on option D (include all the value of corn for the year in which it was produced) if in this country the corn is not part of another productive process.

Answer: A
Explanation:
A complementary good is a product that is used together with another product. Without its complement, such a good will have little value. When there is increase in the price of a particular product, the demand of its complement reduces because consumers may not be able to use the complement on its own.
Complements have negative cross elasticity of demand i.e there is increase in the demand for a product when the price of its complement reduces. If bicycles and gasoline are complements, an increase in tax on gasoline will have a negative effect on the demand for bicycle. Due to the price increase of gasoline, less people will demand for bicycle. The initial change that will occur as a result of this is that as there is a price increase for gasoline, there will be a leftward shift in the demand for bicycle. This implies that less bicycle will be demanded for.
Answer:
C. Loss of $800
Explanation:
Given that
Purchase price = 14400
Depreciation = 8000
Selling price = 5600
Thus,
Value of asset after depreciation = Purchase price - Depreciation
= 14400 - 8000
= 6400.
Therefore,
Difference between current value and price sold = value of asset after depreciation - selling price
= 6400 - 5600
= 800
Therefore, there was a loss of $800, since the selling price is less than the value of asset after depreciation.
