<span>This is a tricky question, because
most of the answers provided are correct. For instance, by raising taxes, the
government drops down the demand rates, as well as by decreasing the money
supply (in that case, it also prevents economy from falling into an inflating
situation). As for balancing the budget, this economical move entails
decreasing the public expenditure and, therefore, contracting the demanding economical
figures too. </span>
Answer:
I used an excel spreadsheet because there is not enough room here.
Explanation:
Answer:
$900
Explanation:
Given that
Total repair up to end of year = 12
Estimated need to be repaid = 8
Average cost = $45
The computation of warranty expense for the current year is shown below:-
For computing the warranty expense for the current year first we need to find out the total repaired cost which is here below
Total repaired cost = Total repair up to end of year + Estimated need to be repaid
= 12 + 8
= 20
Warranty expense for the current year = Average cost × Total
= $45 × 20
= $900
Therefore for computing the warranty expense for the current year we simply applied the above formula.
Answer: b. Set higher prices to the students as their demand is relatively more inelastic.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the change in quantity demanded to changes in price levels.
If demand is inelastic, a small change in price has a small effect on quantity demanded. An inelastic demand usually has a coefficient of less than 1.
The elasticity of demand for students and senior citizens are both inelastic but that of the students is greater than that of senior citizens. They are less responsive to price changes when compared with senior citizens.
Answer:
C. the fair distribution of economic benefits
Explanation:
In economics, there is equity in resource distribution if resources are distributed in such a way as to ensure fairness and justice.
In a command economy, in order to ensure justice and fairness, the government is charged with the responsibility of redistributing economic resources. While in a capitalist economy, the price system does the work of income redistribution.
The question of equitable resource distribution can be achieved through pareto optimal allocation of resources, Vilfredo Pareto in his book “Manual of Political Economy”, 1906. A Pareto-optimal allocation of resources is achieved when it got to a point where it is impossible to make anyone better off without making someone else worse off.
