Answer:
Pegged exchange rate system
Explanation:
In the pegged exchange rate system, a country ties its currency exchange price to that of a more widely used currency at a fixed rate. The US dollar is the most accepted currency for international trade. Countries that use the fixed exchange system peg their currency price to the US dollar. The government will set a fix the exchange rate of its currency relative to the US dollar value.
A pegged exchange rate is also known as a fixed exchange rate. A pegged or fixed exchange rate keeps the currency value within a narrow range. It gives certainty to exporters and importers and helps the government to keep inflation low.
Answer:
Being self-sufficient dramatically reduces one's standard of living.
Explanation:
Thoreau had a view that one should go into the woods, live simply and produce what you need with your own hands (be self-sufficient).
Economists explain why most people in the United States do not do this. To an economist everyone in society have their own specialisation. That is why they emphasize division of labour.
So going into the woods to be self-sufficient is not the best use of one's resources and abilities.
Everyone has something unique to contribute in an interaction. What I have comparative advantage producing will be difficult for another person.
This will create a network of people giving what they have comparative advantage producing in exchange for goods and services they do not have competitive advantage producing. This results in everyone maximising utility.
But Thoreau's view will not maximise utility because it is not possible you have advantage producing all you need.
I'm really not sure this is the right answer, but there are 20! ways to arrange 20 students in different orders. 20! is a VERY large number haha but that's how I'd do it :/
Answer:
b. the supply of ivory has fallen, leading to an increase in price and reward for poaching.
Explanation:
In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.
The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.
Poaching can be defined as an illegal or illegitimate procurement (purchase) of protected wildlife living organisms such as elephants, fish, trees, gaming, etc.
In an attempt to reduce poaching of elephant tusks for ivory, officials in Kenya burned illegally gathered ivory. Economists tend to point out that the supply of ivory has fallen, leading to an increase in price and reward for poaching in accordance with the law of supply.
This ultimately implies that, an increase in the price level of a product usually results in a decrease in the quality of real output demanded along the aggregate demand curve.
