Answer: B) Correct Incorrect

Explanation:

Whilst it was generally believed at some point that raising taxes and Government Spending by the same amount would have no effect, research has disproven this thought.

This is because it was shown that an increase in Government Spending leads to a larger increase in GDP than an increase in taxes reduces it.

This is because when the Government spends money, the Multiplier effect of Government Spending is always 1 more than that of the Taxes therefore raising taxes and spending by the same amounts still increases the Real GDP because Government Spending will create more income than taxes will take.

Necco is right, Packard is wrong.

irinina [24]

Answer:

The total surplus from Andrew's sale to Nick is $35.

Explanation:

The total surplus is the sum of producer surplus and consumer surplus.

The consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay for a product and the price he/she actually has to pay.

While producer surplus is the difference between the minimum price a producer is willing to accept for a product and the price he/she actually gets.

= $20

Producer surplus for Andrew

= $15

Total surplus from generated from Andrew's sale to Nick

= $20 + $15

= $35

In economics, if a good is inelastic,
Mariulka [41]

In economics, if a good is inelastic, then <u>its supply or demand is not sensitive to price changes. </u>

Changes or fluctuations in market prices does not affect the supply and the Demand of inelastic goods.

<h2>Further Explanation; </h2>
  • Inelastic goods, are types of goods whose demand and supply is not affected by changes in market prices. That is an increase or decrease in market price does not affect their supply or demand.
  • When the price of an inelastic good changes, its supply and demand is unaffected.
  • Examples of such goods include, water and food. Therefore, for inelastic goods, the consumer buying strength and habits remain the same.
<h3>Demand and supply in determination of market price </h3>
  • Demand refers to the quantity of goods or services that consumers are willing and able to buy at a particular price while supply is the quantity of goods or services that suppliers are willing to supply to the market at a particular price.  
  • One of the factor that determine market prices are the forces of demand and supply, this is based on the ability and willingness of buyers and sellers to undertake selling and buying.
  • Buying and selling occurs at an equilibrium price that is agreed upon by sellers and buyers.  
  • This means the sellers and buyers are willing to exchange a certain quantity of a commodity at this price. Thus, price depends on the demand and supply in the market.
  • However, for <u>inelastic goods</u> such as water and food, the consumer has no option than to buy them at existing prices since they are necessity goods.

Keywords; Inelastic goods, demand and supply, market price.

Comparing perfect first degree price discrimination to perfect competition one can conclude that: (i) Total social surplus is th
marta [7]

Answer:

C. Both (i) and (ii) are true

Explanation:

Under perfect price discrimination, consumer surplus doesn't exist since the supplier is selling the good or service at the maximum price that each consumer is willing to pay. This situation maximizes supplier surplus.

Under perfect competition, both supplier and consumer surplus exist.

Since total social surplus = supplier surplus + consumer surplus, total surplus should be the same in both situations.
