What is a protective tariff​

Social Studies
1 answer:
In-s [12.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It's a tax levied by a government usually on imported goods. A country produces a certain type of goods. Another country produces the same goods for less. When the imported good are sold, they are sold for less than the domestically produced goods sell for. The local manufactures loose sales to the imported goods. The government of the importing country applies a tariff to the imported goods raising their prices, and now that the imported goods cost more, the local goods have a better chance of competing for sales. This is why it is called a "protective" tariff, because it is protecting the local industry.

How is the ability to choose one's career related to a nation's broad economic goals?
allsm [11]
The ability to choose one's career is related to a nation's broad economic goals in that it reflects individual freedom in relation to the economic system. The ability for individuals to freely choose their work is an individual freedom, that also reflects the level of potential entrepreneurship potentially but not explicitly. The same with ingenuity, a high degree of ingenuity could exist where individual freedom is present in the selection of employment, but it is not a prerequisite or a definite outcome.

Who constructed a theory that focused on population size?
KengaRu [80]

According to Malthusian theory of population, population increases in a geometrical ratio, whereas food supply increases in an arithmetic ratio. This disharmony would lead to widespread poverty and starvation, which would only be checked by natural occurrences such as disease, high infant mortality, famine, war or moral restraint. His main contribution is in the agricultural sector. According to this theory there are two steps to control the population: preventative and positive checks. Preventative means control in birth rate, and uses of different methods to control birth; and positive checks means natural calamities, war, etc. His theory was wrong because Malthus only considered two factors when he established his basic graph: food supply and population growth. Other factors such as improvements in technology proved him wrong. He was right at his time but development made him wrong. If it wasn't for outside influences on population growth and food supply, his mathematical reasoning which proved his theory and was right. I HOPED THIS HELPED

Kryger [21]

Answer: Evan just used the process of metacognition.
