Answer:
The correct answer is option D.
Explanation:
Even though the democratic republic of Congo is rich in natural resources while Switzerland has almost no natural resources, but Switzerland is among one of the richest countries while Congo is among the poorest.
This indicates that abundant natural resources are not the only factor required for economic growth. Other factors such as human capital, physical capital, state of technology, etc. are also necessary for economic growth. Abundant natural resources cannot be efficiently utilized without these factors.
Even if a country is not rich in natural resources but possesses these factors, it can still have high economic growth.

Answer:
Tariff of 1832
Explanation:
The Tariff of 1832 was enacted to replace the 1828 import tariffs commonly known as Tariffs of Abomination. Most southern states did not like it, but its greatest opposition came from South Carolina since its economy depended greatly in foreign trade. Back then America's largest export was cotton produced by southern states.
Due to South Carolina's extreme opposition, it was replaced by the Compromise Tariff of 1833. This last tariff would gradually decrease the tax rates until they fell back to 1816 levels, which was approximately 20%.
The Nullification Crisis refers to a legal process carried out in South Carolina that determined that federal taxes, specifically import tariffs were unconstitutional and shouldn't apply to them. The problem is that the Supreme Court decides what is unconstitutional or not, not a state court.
Answer:
$500 (Favorable)
Explanation:
Given that,
Production cost = $7 per unit
Fixed costs = $23,000 per month
Units produced = 5,500
Actual total costs = $61,000
Standard cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $23,000 + ($7 × 5,500)
= $23,000 + $38,500
= $61,500
Variance = Standard cost - Actual total costs
= $61,500 - $61,000
= $500 (Favorable)
