Answer:

an increase in the price of soccer balls.

Explanation:

Soccer balls are made of polyethylene and other petroleum oil derivates. An increase in the price of oil will lead to increased price of soccer balls, because the raw material price has gone up.

Kayaks also have raw materials derived from oil that is why they are experiencing a rise in price.

Kayaks and soccer balls will have a directly proportional relationship due to their common raw material source- oil.

jekas [21]

Answer:

a.

  • The quality of goods available to consumers
  • The costs of air and water pollution
  • The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government

b. investment; decreases; no overall change

Explanation:

a. GDP only measures goods that have monetary value so when a good cannot be properly quantified in terms of cash, it is difficult to account for it in GDP. Also, even if the good has monetary value for the Government was unaware of it, they will be unable to use it in the calculation of GDP.

For these reasons, the quality of goods available to consumers, the costs of air and water pollution and the value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government will not be a part of GDP calculation.

b.<em> When a U.S. company purchases and imports wood from Brazil to use to build new houses within the United States, this purchase increases the </em><em><u>investment</u></em><em> component of GDP while also </em><em><u>decreasing</u></em><em> net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of wood from Brazil causes </em><em><u>no overall change </u></em><em>in US GDP. </em>

Purchasing raw materials for use in production is considered Investment by GDP. However, since it was imported it will reduce Net Exports which means that the transaction would cancel itself out in the GDP calculation as it would both increase investment and decrease Net exports by the same amounts.

Explanation:

Entrepreneurs, social psychologists and economic theorists have speculated on whether entrepreneurs are born or made, in other words, if you are predisposed to become an entrepreneur because of your genetic constitution, or if that provision comes from your environment, conditioning or other external factor.

For most entrepreneurs, it is comforting to think that business men and women are made, that even if they lack the "right" DNA, practice, experience and sufficient conditioning to be a success.
