Answer:
this will tend to worsen the country's terms of trade.
Explanation:
We can imagine a country C whose main export is cloth. Currently country C is gaining from its trade because its opportunity cost of producing cloth is very low.
Since the country's economy is growing strongly because its cloth exports re growing, this will appreciate the country's currency. As the country's currency appreciates, is domestic cost of producing cloth will get closer to the world price of cloth.
This will result in an increase in the cost of exports and a decrease in the price of imports, which will end up hurting the country's economy and it will weaken its trade position.
Something similar happens to countries that rely heavily on exporting commodities. The country's economy grows, but the other industries suffer and eventually the cost of producing commodities increases, and the benefits gained from exports decrease. E.g. during several years Argentina's economy grew strongly solely based on exporting agricultural products. Soon inflation started to rise and the costs of producing agricultural products increased, lowering the gains of trade. Since the rest of the economy relied on the benefits generated by exporting soybean oil, corn and other byproducts, when those benefits decreased, the whole economy collapsed. It was like a giant exporting bubble.
Variable cost vary in direct proportion to business volume (quantity sold or quantity produced)
Fixed cost remain constant regardless of sales or manufacturing volume.
According to question if sales are increased by 1200 units.current year sale will be 11200 unit .
Suppose Wesson have a variable cost of $6 per unit and fixed cost of $1000.
Cost of 10000 units are :-
Variable cost is 60000(10000*6)
Fixed cost is 1000.
Cost of 11200 unit are :-
Variable cost is 67200(11200*6)
Fixed cost is 1000
So if sales are increased by 12%. Variable cost are increased by 12%(67200-60000). Fixed cost remain the same at 1000 regardless of sales increased
Therefore,
Variable cost increases, Fixed cost remains constant. Answer is choice (e)
