Answer: Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

From the information given in the question, it was observed that fiscal policy in year 2 is expansionary by comparing it with the fiscal policy in year 1.

The budget deficit in year 1 is $200 billion and in year 2 is $225 billion, so there is an increase in the budget deficit from year 1 to year 2. This means that there is an implementation of expansionary policy either by increasing government spending or decreasing taxes.

On the other hand, standardized deficit also increases from year 1 to year 2, which is also an indication of expansionary fiscal policy.

Step2247 [10]

Answer with Explanation:

Qualitative attributes would be the Quality of steel used, interior and exterior design of the car, additional features that it offers, etc.

These attributes are qualitative characteristics of cars because they give us feeling of superiority over other similar items. Hence the strength of steel used clearly reflects the strength of car, interior design gives comfort, exterior design increases sense of superiority, additional features that the car offers will give upperhand over other cars.

All these features of car are qualitative because these can not be measured in numbers. On the other hand, Quantitative attributes includes price of spare parts, car and mileage per litre.

Quantitative attributes are reflected in numbers and thus are more desicive in nature.
