Orlov [11]

True or False: A price ceiling below $25 per box is not a binding price ceiling in this market. True False Because it takes many
jeyben [28]

Answer:

1. False

2. Shortage; Larger

Explanation:

1. A binding price ceiling is one that prevents the market from reaching its equilibrium. In this market, the equilibrium price is $25 therefore anything below $25 will be binding. A price ceiling below $25 per box is a binding ceiling.

2<em>. Assuming that the long-run demand for oranges is the same as the short-run demand, you would expect a binding price ceiling to result in a </em><em><u>shortage</u></em><em> that is </em><em><u>larger</u></em><em> in the long run than in the short run.</em>

In the long run, supply is more sensitive because farmers can decide to plant oranges on their land, to plant something else, or to sell their land altogether.

This means that a price ceiling in the long run will be less attractive to farmers so they might leave the market. If they do this then the shortage will be more as there are now less supplies in the market.

If a country had a CPI of 91.0 last year and a CPI of 90.0 this year, then
Sergio039 [100]

Answer 1: The Correct answer is C) the average prices of goods and services decreased between last year and this year.

CPI stands for consumer Price Index. Also known as the 'basket' the index is developed by national governments to monitor the prices of basic goods and services used by the population.

This has to include basic items that the majority of population uses every day e.g. milk, chicken, electricity etc.

In this case, the CPI had decreased from 91.0 to 90.0 which means the prices fell.

Answer 2: The correct answer is A) 3.6%

The formula to calculate unemployment rate is:

No. of unemployed ÷ No. of Working People x 100

In this case, it was 9 million divided by 250 million x 100

3.6% unemployment rate is actually very less for an economy and is an indicator that the economy is doing well and creating enough jobs for most people. A high unemployment rate signals a worsening economy.
