Gross Profit                          261,000            297,000

Ratio of Gross profit to

 Sales Revenue

2017 = $261,000/$598,000 * 100 = 43.65% =  44%

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Options 1 - 4 are True but 5 is FALSE

Explanation:

All options given are indicators of economic growth and strong economic performance

When considering the economic prospects of a country, it can be said that: 1. the advantages of building brand loyalty and gaining experience in a country's business practices is greater for a last-mover than for a first-mover <em>because the last-mover has the chance to learn from the mistakes of the first-mover and perfect on them</em>

2. countries which do not have property rights protection tend to achieve greater economic growth rates because<em> </em><em><u>prosperity and property rights are inextricably linked</u></em><em>. The importance of having well-defined and strongly protected property rights is now widely recognized among economists and policymakers</em>

3. the economic system and property rights regime are reasonably good predictors of economic prospects of a country because <em>widely accepted explanation is that </em><u><em>well-enforced property rights provide incentives for individuals to participate in economic activities, such as investment</em></u><em>, innovation and trade, which lead to a more efficient market.</em>

4. countries where property rights are not well respected and where corruption is rampant always have very low levels of economic growth because as stated in 3 above <u><em>ill-enforced property rights does not provide incentives for individuals to participate in economic activities, such as investment</em></u><em>, innovation and trade, which lead to a more efficient market.</em>

5.countries with command economies tend to achieve greater economic growth rates than free market economies.

<em>This is FALSE because one of the Command economy disadvantages include lack of competition and lack of efficiency. </em>
