4. Sales of wheat to Mrs. Baird's Bakery

Explanation:

Completion of the Question is as follows:

The following should be placed into  two groups: Group  A represents items to be included in the GDP of the U.S and Group B represents items not be included in the GDP of the U.S.

The Items are as follows:

GM's Assembly and sales of cars in Mexico

Old Navy Purchases mannequins to display clothes

Resale of used textbooks to college students

Ocean spray purchases plastic to make bottles

Honda;s assembly and sales of cars in the U.S.

Sales of wheat to Mrs. Baird's Bakery

Solution

Gross Domestic Product (GDP)

The GDP of a nation is the measure of the market value all finished products, goods and services manufactured or rendered within the borders of a particular country and within a period of time usually one year.

This means that any good produced in another country for instance Germany will not be included in the GDP of the United States. Also, GDP considers only finished goods, hence, intermediate or raw materials for finished goods will also not be included in the GDP calculation.

Based on the explanation, the classification is as follows

ITEMS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE GDP

1. Honda's assembly and sales of cars in the U.S. - The cars were assembled in the United States which is a part of production, hence, they qualify for GDP calculation

2. Old Navy Purchases mannequins to display clothes- The Mannequins were bought as a company's finished products and will not be used to produce any new product. They are already in their finished form

ITEMS NOT TO BE INCLUDED IN THE GDP OF THE UNITED STATES

1. GM's Assembly and sales of cars in Mexico- General Motors assembled the cars in Mexico and this does not qualify as manufactured in the United States.

2.Resale of used textbooks to college students- The textbooks were already calculated for GDP in their year of production, hence, a resale value will not qualify for GDP calculation

3. Ocean spray purchases plastic to make bottles - The plastic purchased represent intermediate goods for further processing of bottles, they are raw materials and not finished goods.

4. Sales of wheat to Mrs. Baird's Bakery - The wheat purchased represent intermediate material for further processing of bread, it is a raw material required to produce a finished product - bread.

Suppose that during the Great Depression long-run aggregate supply shifted left. To be consistent with what happened to the pric
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The aggregate demand will fall

Explanation:

The aggregate supply measures the quantity of real GDP that can be supplied by in the economy at different price levels. it measures planned output if both prices and average wage rates can change, the Long run aggregate supply curve is assumed to be vertical (this means it remains constant when the general price level changes).

The leftward shift in aggregate supply means that at the same price levels the quantity supplied of real GDP has decreased. This is mostly due to natural disasters or other supply shocks like economic depression, when there is leftward shift in aggregate there would be fewer workers available to produce goods at any given price.

Joe Santos owns the only pizza parlor in a small town that is also home to a McDonald's, a Taco Bell, and a Kentucky Fried Chick
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A more precise way to describe the situation is that Joe's pizza parlor is a monopolistic competition. But that definition considers that all 'food' items have some degree of close substitute relation.

But yes, if you consider this two conditions:

  1. a broad definition of monopoly
  2. other restaurants are not considered close substitutes for the food sold at the pizza parlor

Then yes, Joe has monopoly

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Books Shirts

4 0

3 3

2 6

1 9

0 12

Explanation: At combination E, the economy is producing 0 books and 12 shirts. Since the opportunity cost of 1 book is 3 shirts, moving from point E to point D (gaining 1 book) requires this economy to produce 3 fewer shirts. Thus, the number of shirts in combination D must be 12 shirts−3 shirts=9 shirts. The rest of the combinations can be calculated in a similar fashion, with the answers summarized in the following table.

A 4 3−3=0

B 3 6−3=3

C 2 9−3=6

D 1 12−3=9

E 0 12
