Suppose an economy is modeled with a production possibilities frontier or curve (PPF) for butter (vertical axis) vs. guns (horiz
Nonamiya [84]

Answer: B - a general improvement in technology affecting production of all goods

Explanation: The Production Possibility Frontier is a curve that shows the two combination of goods an economy can produce when all its factors of production are efficiently used.

Technological progress shifts the curve outward, away from the origin as more output would be produced using the same combination of factor inputs.

Shifting of resources from butter to gun would lead to movements along the curve as more gun would be produced and less butter.

Pacifism becoming less popular which increases gun production, would cause movement along the curve.

Increase in consumer desire for butter increase the amount of butter produced . This would generate a movement along the curve

Sliva [168]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

If the Federal bank sells securities to a bond dealer, the dealer will need to pay back the Fed. This will cause a reduction in the dealer's bank's transaction deposits liabilities.

A reduction in deposits liabilities will further cause a reduction in the total reserves of the bank. Consequently, it will cause a decrease in the money supply. In this way, the federal reserve bank can curb inflationary pressures.

meriva
Alright, so we start out with $12000, and we'd add from there. Since we add 1$ for every passenger, our equation with p being the number of passengers would be 1*p (e.g. for 1 passenger we have 1*1=1, 2 passengers we have 1+1(2 times)=2). Substituting 50,000 for p, we have 1*50,000=50,000. Next, we have to add 12,000 to that (as that's a flat fee) to get 50000+12000=62000
