A student is asked to write a critique of this excerpt from utopia. if these metals were laid up in any tower in the kingdom it

would raise a jealousy of the prince and senate, and give birth to that foolish mistrust into which the people are apt to fall—a jealousy of their intending to sacrifice the interest of the public to their own private advantage. if they should work it into vessels, or any sort of plate, they fear that the people might grow too fond of it, and so be unwilling to let the plate be run down, if a war made it necessary, to employ it in paying their soldiers. to prevent all these inconveniences they have fallen upon an expedient which, as it agrees with their other policy, so is it very different from ours, and will scarce gain belief among us who value gold so much, and lay it up so carefully. they eat and drink out of vessels of earth or glass, which make an agreeable appearance, though formed of brittle materials; while they make their chamber-pots and close-stools of gold and silver, and that not only in their public halls but in their private houses. of the same metals they likewise make chains and fetters for their slaves, to some of which, as a badge of infamy, they hang an earring of gold, and make others wear a chain or a coronet of the same metal; and thus they take care by all possible means to render gold and silver of no esteem . . . which is a critique of the excerpt?

Suppose the downward sloping labor demand curve shifts rightward in a labor market with a single employer (monopsony). What happ
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

  • Equilibrium wage increase
  • Level of employment increase

Explanation:

A shift rightward in the labor market of a single employer would imply that the employer wants more labor. They will therefore increase the wages that they are paying their labor to entice more labor and the level of employment in the industry will increase as the employer hires more people.

Graphically speaking, when the labor demand curve shifts right, it will intersect with the labor supply curve at a higher equilibrium wage. The quantity of labor will also increase as it goes to a new equilibrium point.

Answer: Limited liabilities and partnerships

Explanation:

Limited liabilities mean that the partners within the firm are only liable to pay off their debts with the amount they had invested as capital in the company. Partnership is an agreement between certain number of partners to share the profit and loss of the company. In this case since there is a 50/50 allocation of profits and there are only 2 partners therefore, this is a limited liability partnership.

Suppose that the u.s. government doubles its spending on health care. the _____ curve shifts _____, output _____, and prices ___
denpristay [2]

The <u>aggregate demand</u> curve shifts <u>right</u>, output <u>increases</u>, and prices <u>increase</u> when the U.S. government doubles its spending on health care.

Aggregate demand or AD refers to the total demand for all individual goods and services.

The aggregate demand and supply for an economy can be depicted by a schedule, a curve, or even an algebraic equation. Just like the demand and supply for individual goods and services.

The total quantity of all goods and services that the economy demands at various price levels is illustrated by the aggregate demand curve.

Therefore, if the U.S. government doubles its health care spending, the aggregate demand curve shifts right, output rises, and prices rise.
