Answer:
C) had a strong focus on the Chinese as scapegoeats for the economic woes of California workers.
Explanation:
During the 19th and 20th century, the so-called <em>Coolies</em> , Asian people who were brought from China to work in America, made economical situation even worse in the USA, for many Americans lost their job for these people for a cheaper salary.
Answer:
Explanation:
United States is producing 200 tons of hamburgers and 60 tons of tacos.
United States' opportunity cost for producing 1 ton of hamburgers
= 
= 0.3
United States' opportunity cost for producing 60 tons of tacos.
= 
= 3.33
So we see that US has a lower opportunity cost in producing hamburgers, so it has a comparative advantage in producing hamburgers.
Mexico is producing 40 tons of hamburgers and 50 tons of tacos.
Mexico's opportunity cost of producing a ton of hamburgers
= 
= 1.25
Mexico's opportunity cost of producing a ton of tacos
= 
= 0.8
So we see that Mexico has a lower opportunity cost in producing tacos, so it has a comparative advantage in making tacos.
Since US specializes in making hamburgers, it will produce 200 tons of hamburgers and 0 tons of tacos.
Mexico specializes in making tacos, it will produce 50 tons of tacos and 0 tons of hamburgers.
Answer:
The Bullwhip Effect
Explanation:
Bullwhip effect is a phenomenon that occurs in an organisation's channel of distribution due to swings or erratic demands for products by customers. This erratic nature of demands will usually lead to forecasting inefficiencies especially in meeting the demands through the supply chain.
A sudden increase in demand could lead to production planning problems because there might not be enough inventory of materials on ground to meet the demand. Also, a sudden decrease in demand can bring the challenge of excess inventory of materials which may not be needed for production for a while.
One of the measures taken to manage this erratic nature of demands is to ensure that whatever the forecasts for demands is, safety stock must be included to the forecast level of demand so as to ensure that production planning is adequate and the demands are met as well.
Answer:
price increases and Ed equals -2.47
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of the coefficient for inelastic demand is less than 1.
If price increases and demand is inelastic, total revenue would increase because there would-be little or no change in quantity demanded as a result of the price increase.
Demand is elastic if a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.
The absolute value of the coefficient for elastic demand is greater than 1.
If demand is elastic and price is increased, revenue would fall because of the decease in quantity demanded.
If demand is elastic and price is deceased, revenue would rise because of the increase in Quanitity demanded as a result of the fall in price.
Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of the coefficient for unit elastic demand is one.
