Rina8888 [55]

Answer:<em> Option (D) is correct </em>

Explanation:

To weaken the conclusion, the answer will emphasize on why Baurisia will not soon become an importer of grain.  

Here, in this case if importing meat is cheaper than importing grain, then Baurisia is likely to satisfy the demand for meat by becoming an importer of meat, weakening the conclusion that Baurisia will soon become an importer of grain.  

<em>Therefore , It is more economical for Baurisians to import meat than grain, if true, most seriously weakens the argument.</em>

Fofino [41]

Consider the following data for a closed economy:
notsponge [240]

Answer: The answer is given below

Explanation:

a. . Private saving

Private saving=Y+TR-C-T

= $11t + $1t - $8t - $3t

= $12 trillion - $11 trillion

= $1 trillion

b. Public saving

Public Saving= T-G-TR

Since G is not given, we can use:

I = public saving + private saving

$2t = public savings + $1t

Public saving= $2 trillion - $1 trillion

Public savings = $1 trillion

c. Goverment purchases

Since public savings = T - G - TR

$1t = $3t - G - $1t

G = $3t - $1t - $1t

G = $3 trillion - $2 trillion

G = $1 trillion

d. The goverment budget deficit or budget surplus.

There is a budget surplus of $1 trillion which has been calculated in the public savings.
