Answer: (a) $1.04 million

(b) $7.25 million

Explanation:

Additional revenue raised by State A :

Initial revenue = $(5% x 890) million

                         = $ 44.5 million

Revenue from increased tax rate = $(6% x 759) million

                                                       = $45.54 million

Additional Revenue raised by State A = $ (45.54 - 44.5)million

                                                               = $1.04 million

Additional revenue raised by State Z :

Revenue from increased tax base = $(5% x 145) million

                                                         = $7.25 million

Alborosie

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.

Economic efficiency requires that a natural monopoly's price be: Select one: A. equal to marginal cost where it intersects the d
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A. equal to marginal cost where it intersects the demand curve

Explanation:

In a pure competition, the market is efficient because it balances demand and supply and gives an equilibrium price that takes both of them into account.

In this market, the price is equal to the marginal revenue of a firm and the profit maximizing level of production is where the marginal revenue intersects the marginal cost.

The efficient level is therefore where price equals marginal cost. The same goes for a natural monopoly. If economic efficiency is to be achieved, the natural monopoly's price must equal the marginal cost at the equilibrium price.
