<h2>Luke cannot sell the product because patent is already been issued to the similar product.</h2>

Explanation:

According to the given scenario, Luke though he is an inventor and he has created a product which is similar to already patented, Luke is not allowed to sale based on the patent rule.

Since there is a patent right obtained by someone for similar product, then what Luke is trying to do is against the Patent law.

Luke cannot prove that he already had an idea. Any law always needs a proof than a statement.

Luke may be punishable under the patent law if he tries to sell his invention.

Answer:

a. increase price in the short run but not in the long run.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is one in which firms in an economy produce similar goods, and use resources that are limited in quantity.

An increase in demand will result in a corresponding increase in price, and results in firms making high profits. In the diagram below it results in a shift of demand from D1 to D2.

In the long run as firms have low barrier to entry more firms enter the market and supply shifts from S1 to S2. There is reduction in prices and profits start to fall. This is illustrated in the second diagram.

Suppose an economy has a law that requires all wages to be adjusted quarterly to reflect changes in the general price level. Thi

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

economic (or business) cycles are less severe.

Explanation:

If the wages follow the general price level, it means that they will follow the inflation rate. When the economy is strong and inflation might rise, then the wages should increase accordingly. When the economy is starting to enter a recession then the inflation rate will reduce, so wages will not increase as much (if any increase at all).

This type of economic policy favors expansion cycles since private consumption is the main component of the GDP and also helps when the economy enters a recession because the wages will follow inflation rate which will help make the recession less severe and hopefully shorter.

One basic concept for this to work is that inflation is always a positive number, countries rarely (if ever) go through deflation processes.

If a good has external costs connected with it (negative externalities), the social costs will be larger than the private cost.
Market failure may occur in the presence of external expenses. This is because the free market frequently ignores the existence of external expenses.
The cost to a third party of consuming/producing one more unit is known as the external marginal cost (XMC).
