Answer:

The increase in GDP is $250

Explanation:

The increase in investment spending = $100

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.6

Now we have to find an increase in the GDP after absorbing the $100.

Therefore, we need to find the multiplier by using the marginal propensity to consume.

Multiplier = 1 / (1-MPC)

Multiplier = 1/( 1- 0.6)

Multiplier = 2.5

The increase in GDP = increase in investment spending × Multiplier

The increase in GDP = 100 × 2.5 = $250

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

1. Honesty.

State the purpose of your call to the secretary and sell your product. For instance, " Hello, my name is Mr. Petal and I represent a fast rising Paper and Metal Container company. After researching about your company, I felt it most expedient to get in touch with Mr. Firestone as I believe this is business he will be interested in. We offer perks that are unmatched in the industry".

2. Persistence.

You can be persistent on the phone if you detect deceit in the secretary's tone.

For instance,

" Having been in the chemical industry myself, I know such an opportunity does not come often and I really do guarantee that we give the best benefits in the industry. If you can, just let me talk to Mr. Firestone, I promise that neither of you will regret it".

If it still doesn't work, ask for a convenient time you can call back.

When students in a large class were surveyed about how much they would be willing to pay for a coffee mug with their university'
viktelen [127]

Answer and Explanation:

1> Let's solve the standard economic model first based on rational expectation.

Since the medium willingness to pay is $5, we can assume half the people have more willingness to pay than $5 and half the people have less. (Since it's a large class, we can assume this)

So, half of them who got the mug will sell, according to standard theory.

2> Now behavioral economist will disagree. People who got the mug, get an emotional and nostalgic attachment with it, thus they would not like to sell it because they get utility after having something, so by behavioral theory, less than half of pupils who got the mug will sell.
