Answer:
A. the economy is producing at less than its potential output and has some cyclical unemployment.
Explanation:
Increase in government spending will increase domestic income, only if economy is producing at less than its potential output.
Increase in federal government spending raises the level of 'govt expenditure' in Aggregate Demand. This creates 'Excess Demand' (AD > AS). However, if the economy is at full employment level, i.e all the resources are already best efficiently utilised as per their production potential. Then, the economy can't increase its domestic income more than its full employment (full potential) level. So : Increase in government spending in full employment case, wont increase total production/ income/ employment further ; as the economy is already at full employment & can't increase economic activity beyond that.
Answer: decrease
Explanation:
The money multiplier is the amount of money generated by banks with each dollar of reserves. The reserves is the amount of deposits which the Federal Reserve wants banks not to lend but rather hold. The money multiplier is therefore the ratio of deposits to the reserves in the banking system.
The money multiplier shows the ratio of the increase or decrease in money supply in relation to the increase or decrease in deposits. During the Christmas period, people draw lots of money out of their accounts to buy presents and other things. This will lead to a decrease in the money multiplier.
Answer:

Explanation:
The short-run is an imaginary short period in which all the inputs cannot be varied. There is at least one input that cannot be varied. So in the short run, there are some fixed inputs and some variable inputs.
The cost incurred on fixed inputs are fixed costs and that incurred on variable inputs are variable costs. So there are fixed costs and variable costs in the short run.
In the long run, all inputs are variable so all costs are variable as well.
Answer:
C. Production Possibility frontier
Explanation:
The production possibility frontier (PPF) is a graph that shows what levels of output of two goods can be produced using available resources and technology.
Just individuals can not have everything they want and must make choices between different goods, society as a whole also can't have everything it might want either. This PPF depicts constraints faced between the resources
Answer:
is more profitable since a firm can charge the new segments higher prices without changing the product.
Explanation:
When a single price has multiple segments and when product, it is an example of price discrimination
Price discrimination is when the same product is sold at different prices to customers in different markets
types of price discrimination
1. first degree price discrimination : here sellers charge each consumer at their willingness to pay in order to eliminate consumer surplus.
2. second degree price discrimination : here firms offer different prices depending on the quantity purchased. e.g. giving discounts for bulk purchases.
3, third degree price discrimination : firms charge different prices to different groups of customers. e.g. having a certain price for senior citizens, students
Price discrimination benefits firms because firms can earn more profit since they charge different prices for the same single product compared with multiple products
