Answer:
1
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
In a perfect monopoly, there is only one firm operating in the industry
In a monopolistic competition, differentiated products are sold
In an oligopoly, there are few large firms

Answer:
Net fixed assets is $30546.
Explanation:
Given the net working capital = $2204
The current assets of the company = $6475
The equity of the company = $22215
Long term debt of the company = $10535
Net Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
2204 = 6475 – current liabilities
Current liabilities = 6475 – 2204 = 4271
Total assets = Current Liabilities + Long term Debt + Total Equity
= 4271 + 10535 + 22215
= $37021
Total Liabilities and Stockholders Equity = Total Assets
Total assets = $37021
Total Assets = Current Assets + Net Fixed Assets
37021 = 6475 + net fixed assets
Net fixed assets = 37021 – 6475 = $30546

Answer and Explanation:
Economic Growth can be defined as an increment in production capacity of an economy using all its available resources. The PPF illustrates the largest possible quantity of goods and services a nation can produce base on its available resources. An outward shift in the economy’s production possibility frontier (PPF) depicts a raise in productive capacity of an economy. An outward shift implies that an economy has capacity to increase its production outputs. This can be as a result of the economy employing new technology, allowing specialization, increasing its labour force, using new production approaches etc. Likewise, an inward shifting PPF implies an economy has witness a loss or exhaustion of some of its scarce resources and it will culminate into reduction in an economy’s productive potential.
Effects of saving and investment upon national GDP
level of savings direct related to the level of investment, investment feeds on available finance from saving. If more people save, the banks will be able to lend more to firms to support their investments.
low savings and investment implies a PPF inward shift. low savings in economy implies that the economy is opting for short-term consumption over long-term investment, and this will lead to future undue pressure on available infrastructures ad resources.
spending on consumer goods vs capital goods effect on the economy
In the short run, the economy must prefer using available resources to produce capital rather than consumer goods. Standards of living will be affected, as private consumption will have access to fewer resources. However, in the longer run, the raised production of capital goods will boost the production of more consumer goods ad therefore standards of living will experience more increase than they would have witness if the economy had spent most of its income on consumer goods.
