Go to the internet and find a news article published within the last month that discusses changes in demand and supply of partic
Setler79 [48]

Answer: The explanation is provided below

Explanation:

Below article is the summary of the acceleration of inflation in the emerging markets that was published in 2018.

According to the article, inflation in an economy is caused by an adverse supply shock or as a result of the expansionary fiscal policy or the expansionary monetary policy.

In an adverse supply shock, total quantity of basic goods will reduce drastically causing the aggregate demand to rise exponentially and therefore, push prices higher and then gradually lead to inflation.

Also, the continous and eventual implementation of the expansionary fiscal or monetary policy through continous tax cuts or by increasing government spending or reducting interest rates, lead into significant increase in the aggregate demand and as a result, prices rise eventually resulting in hyperinflation in the economy. This will also lead to increase in the real GDP of the economy.

Different tools in the monetary policy framework can be used to control inflation such as government securities,

the cash reserve ratio, interest rates. To reduce recession, government utilize automatic stabilizer in order to boost the economy.

Explain how consumer and producer surplus affect economic well-being. When the price of a good or service is – enough, it will e
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

the general welfare will be the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus.

Explanation:

The consumer and producer surplus assessment serves to measure the overall efficiency of the market, which in turn is associated with overall well-being. An efficient market is one in which both consumers and producers have the incentive to negotiate and effect trade.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the amount he or she is willing to pay and how much he or she actually pays for the product. This surplus is positive when the amount paid is less than the amount for which the consumer would be willing to pay.

Similarly, the producer's surplus is the difference between the market price and the price at which the seller is willing to produce and sell. When the producer's surplus is positive, it means that he sells the product for a price higher than the minimum value that would stimulate him to produce.

Thus, the general welfare will be the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus.

If the inflation rate averages 3 percent over the next 8 years, the expected cost of services for any year in that time frame is
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The expected cost 8 years from now = $13.87

Explanation:

If the inflation rate averages 3 percent yearly over the next 8 years, the expected cost of services for any year in that time frame is given by

C (x) = K (1.03)ˣ

where

K = present cost = $10.95

x = time in years = 8

So, the expected cost of a haircut 8 years from now would be

C(x=8) = 10.95 (1.03)⁸ = $13.87

Hope this Helps!!!!
