Answer:
A. Movement on the PPC
B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC
C. Less Concavity of PPC
Explanation:
Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).
- It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
- It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
- Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.
a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)
b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.
c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.

Answer:
A debit to Work-in-Process Inventory, Finishing Department of $140,000
Explanation:
Data provided
Cost transferred per unit = $4
Units transferred = 35,000
Total cost of units transferred = Cost transferred per unit × Units transferred
= $4 × 35,000
= $140,000
Therefore Process department is a finishing department. From the last processing department to finished goods and when only finished goods are debited.
$140,000 will be paid to the Work-in-Process Inventory, Mixing Department and debited to the Finishing Department, Work-in-Process Inventory.
The competitiveness of a good usually depends on two key factors: its price, and its quality. While poor quality goods are less competitive from a quality perspective but poor quality goods are usually cheaper to produce resulting to a lower final price. So overall, the lower the cost and the higher the quality the more competitive a good is.
Answer:
1. The Fed is an independent government agency ⇒ C. A government agency should not have so much control over the economy because politicians are always going to do anything to win the next election.
The Fed is an independent government agency that pursues the best economic policy for the nation independent of what politicians want.
2. The Fed is overseen by the federal government ⇒ A. The Federal Reserve lacks accountability because no one audits the Fed. There is no way to know what really goes on behind the scenes.
The Federal government however, gets to oversee the Fed to ensure accountability and best practices.
3. The Fed conducts monetary policy through open market operations ⇒ B. The Federal Reserve just prints more money when the economy needs it and gives it to link.
The Fed does not only oversee the printing of money by the Treasury, they also conduct monetary policy through the use of OMO by buying securities when they want money supply to increase and selling when they want a decrease.
