Answer:

C) less than 5 times as much as your grandfather in terms of real income

Explanation:

Given information

Grandfather first job earning in the year 1961 = $7,000 per year

Our first job earning in year 2016 = $35,000 per year

If we compare this two-income it would be equal because

Grandfather earnings = Our earnings

$7,000 × 5 times = $35,000

$35,000 = $35,000

And, we know that real income is the income that comes after considering the inflation so if we see the commodities price in 1961 with the commodities price in 2016 it will have a huge difference.  

So, it would be less than 5 times as your grandfather in case of the real income

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: C- Alzania's neighbor exported half its production of cotton that year

Explanation: Alzania produces and consumes​ 500,000 tons of cotton during a year. While, the neighbor which also employs the same number of people in the cotton​ industry, consumed​ 400,000 tons of cotton. There is no information on production of the neighbor. Just by looking at the consumption units we can argue that Alzania has an absolute advantage over the neighbor as it consumes more. However, if there is any information on the amount of exports of cotton from the neighbor then it will weaken the absolute advantage conclusion.

Thus, if <em>Alzania's neighbor exported half its production of cotton that year </em>the total production of cotton is greater of the neighbor than Alzania.
