Answer:

The correct answer is The fundamental attribution error.

Explanation:

The Fundamental Attribution Error (EFA) is a phenomenon that occurs when we try to explain our own behavior with respect to that of others. Many times we find it hard to understand why a person acts as he acts. And we do not stop to look for the reasons that are the basis of their behavior.

A very clear example is to suspend an exam. If you have to explain to someone why you have suspended the exam, you probably mean that it was very difficult, that you had not rested, did not have time to study or even that the teacher suspended you.

Now imagine that it is another person who suspends and you have approved. Surely if you have to explain why you have suspended you will explain that it is a bit vague, that you have not studied enough and even that you were not interested in approving.

motikmotik

Answer:

The correct answer is $250 billion.

Explanation:

An economy is operating at an output level of $4,000 billion.  

The potential output level is $5,000 billion.  

The marginal propensity to consume is 0.75.  

The recessionary gap is

= $5,000 billion - $4,000 billion

= $1,000 billion

ΔY = \frac{1}{1-MPC}\times \Delta G

$1,000 = \frac{1}{1-0.75}\times \Delta G

$1,000 = \frac{1}{0.25}\times \Delta G

$1,000 = 4 \times \Delta G

ΔG = \frac{1,000}{4}

The change in income required to correct this recessionary gap is $250 billion.

In January 2012, one US dollar was worth 50 Indian rupees. Suppose that over the next year the value of the Indian rupee decreas
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

59% - a)increase - b)decrease

Explanation:

First of all, we should say that the real exchange rate is calculated by multiplying the nominal exchange rate for the price index and then divide it by the price index of the other country. In another language, using this case as the example, the first nominal exchange rate is 50, as you need 50 rupees to buy 1 dollar. So to calculate the real exchange rate you need to multiply 50 by 100 (the price index of USA) and then divide it by 100 (the price index of India). Note that both price indexes are 100, just a coincidence for making easier the question. Result: 50.

Then we calculate the next real exchange rate: multiply 60 (the new nominal exchange rate) by 106 (the new US price index) and divide by 80 (the new India price index). This throws a result of 79,5. We see a 29,5 increase, and 29,5 represents 59% of 50 (the initial real exchange rate).

Then both questions is more common sense than the reading of the results we just calculated. For example, nominal exchange rate changed from 50 to 60, so the people in India will now have to collect 10 more rupees to buy the same dollar. Let's suppose a pair of shoes in USA costs 40 dollars. Before, Indians needed 2000 rupees to buy it. Now they will need 2400 rupees... it will be more expensive. Plus, the prices of USA had gone up 6%, which means the pair of shoes will now cost 42,4 dollars... even more expensive! As products in USA are more expensive, we can expect that India's consumption of American goods will decrease (law of demand).

With the American consumption of Indian goods happens the opposite, the goods in India became cheaper (price index has fallen), and for the Americans, the same dollars they had will buy more rupees when the exchange rate changed to 60.
