To protect certain fledgling industries, the government of country Z banned imports of the types of products those industries we

re starting to make. As a direct result, the cost of those products to the buyers, several export-dependent industries in Z, went up, sharply limiting the ability of those industries to compete effectively in their export markets.
Which of the following can be most properly inferred from the passage about the products whose importation was banned?
(A) Those products had been cheaper to import than they were to make within country Z's fledgling industries.
(B) Those products were ones that country Z was hoping to export in its turn, once the fledgling industries matured.
(C) Those products used to be imported from just those countries to which country Z's exports went.
(D) Those products had become more and more expensive to import, which resulted in a foreign trade deficit just before the ban.
(E) Those products used to be imported in very small quantities, but they were essential to country Z's economy.

Answer;

A

Explanation:

two types of industries are made mention of in this question.

1)Local Fledgling Industries

2)Export Dependent Industries,who are being forced to buy products from local industries now.

Since the Government has placed a ban on the importation of the products that are being made by the local fledgling industries. The implication of this is that:

1. Buyers of those import products will experience a rise in the Cost of those products as the competition faced by the Fledging industries decreases.

2. Competing becomes difficult for Export dependent industries. This is because of inflation. They now have to buy the same product at an inflated cost, thereby reducing profits.

Answer:

The correct option is A,those products had been cheaper to import than they were to make within country Z's fledgling industries.

Explanation:

Protecting infant industries is one strategy the government might favor in order to ensure reduction in the level of unemployment in the economy.

Judging from the scenario, the fact that the cost of the products to the buyers increased implies that the locally-made one is more expensive than the imported one,hence the fledgling ,immature industries could not compete favorably with their foreign counterparts in terms of pricing,which necessitated government to wade in to save the fledgling industries from going under.

Besides,the cost of  the  product of export-dependent industries in Z ,increased due to increase in price of their input which they have to source from the fledgling industries,thereby making them less competitive in the export markets.

musickatia [10]

Answer:

This is an example of multiple pricing.

Explanation:

Sometimes if you add all the extra charges, like shipping and handling, you might realize that the product being offered by the infomercial is actually more expensive than similar products that you can buy on retail stores or websites.

Infomercials do this on purpose, they use low selling prices as bait, but then they charge very high fees for processing your order and shipping it.

Which of the following countries is on the best terms with North Korea and has demonstrated this in their treatment of 2010 even
AysviL [449]
Hi, 

The answer is China

Over time, China has demonstrated their support to North Korea. In 2010 North Korea attacked with artillery the island of Yeonpyeong, where there were civilians, and South Korea responded by attacking North Korea's artillery. 

Tensions scaled, and although most world governments condemned the attack, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs didn't explicitly condemn the bombarding by North Korea and only made a call to peace in the Korean Peninsula.

Which of the following will not cause the production possibility frontier to shift? Group of answer choices the introduction of
algol13

Answer:

an increase in the working population

Explanation:

The Production possibilities frontier (PPF) is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.  

The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.  

The PPF can shift either inward or outward.

An outward shift is associated with an increase in output while an inward shift is associated with a reduction in output.

Factors that cause the PPF to shift

1. changes in technology. technological progress leads to outward shift of the PPF. introduction of "fiber optic" technology would shift the PPF outward.

2. changes in available resources. a land reclamation program would increase the land available for production and this would increase output. While an explosion destroying a chemical plant would reduce output and lead to an inward shift of the PPF

3. changes in the labour force. A decrease in unemployment would increase output and shift the the PPF outward

Working population is the number of people between 15-59.

Consider the economies of Macmillana and Bloedelo, which are identical except that the multiplier in Macmillana is smaller than
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Macmillana's GDP is less sensitive economic fluctuations than Bloedelo's GDP. Two reasons account for this:

1) The keynesian multiplier is smaller.

The keynesian multiplier tells us about the sensitivity of GDP to increases in domestic expenditure (consumption, investment or government purchases). If the keynesian multiplier is small, then, GDP will be less sensitive to fluctuations in aggregate expenditure.

2) Macmillana's economy has implemented automatic stabilizers, while Bloedelo's economy has not.

Automatic Stabilizers are government policies meant to reduce fluctuations in GDP. The two most common automatic stabilizers are: income taxes and unemployment benefits.

Automatic Stabilizers reduce the kenyensian multiplier, dampening Macmillana's GDP sensitivity to fluctuations even more.
