Explanation:

Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.

The four factors of production are;

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

In this scenario, George owns four dry cleaning stores in the suburbs of Orlando, Florida. He recently updated his STP analysis and has finished adjusting his marketing mix based on the STP results.

If Bruce is able to work 600 hours per year, his salary will be $3,600 (= $6 x 600), but he will lose $2,160 (= $3,600 x 60%) of welfare stipend.

His total welfare stipend is $15,000 if he is not able to work during the year.

Bruce's total income = $15,000 + $3,600 - $2,160 = $16,440

The risk refers to the danger of changes in buying power during times of rising or falling prices is known as inflation.

Risk refers to the uncertainty or probability of an accidental event that will affect the decision-making of an individual or organization. In business the higher the risk, the higher the profit is achieved.

Inflation is defined as the ratio at which prices rise over time. Inflation is usually defined as a wide measure of price increases or increases in the cost of living in a place affecting its citizens.

Inflation diminishes the purchasing power of individuals which leads to high risk for investors who paid a fixed rate of interest on the investment. Most concerned about inflation-reducing returns are those individuals who invested in cash equivalents.

Luden [163]

HERE IS/ARE THE FULL QUESTION(S):

The small island nation of Kaboom is a simple economy with no government, no taxes, and no imports or exports. Kaboomers (citizens of Kaboom) are creatures of habit. They have a rule that everyone saves exactly 40 percent of income. Assume that planned investment is fixed and remains at 225 million Kaboomian dollars. Further assume that autonomous consumption (independent of Y) is zero, so consumption (C) is MPC times Upper YMPC×Y.

The following data are estimates for the island of Kaboom:

bullet• Real GNP (Y): 422 million Kaboomian dollars

bullet• Planned investment spending (I):225 million Kaboomian dollars

You are asked by the business editor of the Explosive Times, the local newspaper, to predict the economic events of the next few months.

Based on the data given, you predict inventories will DECREASE and the level of real GNP will INCREASE.

Things will stop changing when SAVINGS EQUAL INVESTMENT.

Kaboom's economy will reach equilibrium when its real GNP = 563 MILLION Kaboomian dollars
