Answer:
D. Deflation
Explanation:
"Consumer Price Index" <em>(CPI)</em> measures the changes in the weighted average of prices of a market basket (consisting of consumer goods and services). It tells the<u> cost of living for every consumer. </u>
"Inflation" refers to the sustained increase of prices of goods and services while "deflation" refers to the sustained decrease of prices of goods and services.
In the situation above, the CPI is considered lower than before, thus <u>deflation</u> must have occurred during the second six-year period. It shows a <u>negative inflation rate.</u>
So, this explains the answer.
C. increase in the interest rate
Answer:
1. Neither ; 2. Consumer Surplus ; 3. Producer Surplus
Explanation:
Consumer Surplus is the difference between a good's price paid by consumer, & maximum price the consumer is willing to pay for the good.
Producer Surplus is the difference between a good's price received by a seller, & minimum price at which the seller is willing to sell the good.
1. Willing to pay $209 for watch, buyer willing to sell at $196, no trade as price ceiling at $190 : It illustrates neither concept as transaction has not actually occurred, so no price established.
2. Willing to pay $39 for sweater, purchased it for $32 : It illustrates 'Consumer Surplus' case = $7 , as it shows difference between maximum willingness to pay by buyer ($39) & the actual buy price ($32)
3. Willing to sell laptop at $190, sold it at $199 : It illustrates 'Producer Surplus' case = $9 , as it shows difference between minimum willingness to sell price ($190) & actual sale price ($199)
Answer: B) demand determined.
Explanation:
If the supply of a good is fixed or the product is of a unique kind, the price of the good will be determined by the amount of demand for it.
Normally supply can change based on the quantity demanded which will impact prices but if the supply is definite, this means that the supply curve is inelastic and the only curve that can affect price therefore is the demand curve.
If more people demand the good, it will increase in price and if less people demand it, it will fall in price.
