Answer:B. are always completely flexible

Explanation:The classical theory proposes that all markets reequilibrate because of adjustments in prices and wages which are flexible. For instance, if an excess in the labor force or products exist, the wage or price of these will adjust to absorb the excess. If prices and wages are flexible, markets reequilibrate.

Wages are said to be flexible when they respond to changes in supply and demand and lead to the market clearing wage being set. It implies that the wage will be set by the Marginal Revenue Product of labour and marginal cost of labour. Any change in supply and demand for labour will lead to a change in the wage rate.

The importance of wage flexibility arises from the fact that, in most macroeconomic models, we find an inverse relationship between wages and employment.

Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8 and the government votes to increase taxes by $3 billion. Round to the nearest
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

a) -4

b) -12 billion

Explanation:

Question 1) Calculate the Tax Multiplier

FIrst, we know that the Marginal Propensity to Consume = 0.8

Based on this, the formula is as follows:

Multipier = -Marginal Propensity to Consume/ (1-Marginal Propensity to Consume)

Multiplier = -0.8/ (1-0.8) = -0.8/ 0.2 = -4

The Tax  Multiplier = -4

Question 2) The resulting change in the equilibrium quantity of real GDP demanded

Change in Demand = Change in Tax x The Tax Multiplier

Change in Demand = $3 billion x -4

= -12

This means that the equilibrium quantity of the real GDP is -12 billion

Let's think about billions by looking at Bill Gates, president of Microsoft. One year, his personal wealth grew by $20 billion.
marta [7]

Answer:

No, he should <u>not</u> pick up the $100 bill

Explanation:

If his salary were those $20 billion (20,000,000,000) by a year. Let's find out how much this is by a second.

First let's find out how much is that salary by <em>a day</em>, then by <em>an hour</em>, then by <em>a minute</em> and finally by <em>a second</em>.

\frac{20,000,000,000}{year}*(\frac{1 year}{365d})*(\frac{1d}{24h})*(\frac{1}{60min} )*(\frac{1min}{60s} )  \\\\  =\frac{20,000,000,000}{365*24*60*60} \\ \\ =\frac{20,000,000,000}{31,536,000} \\ \\ =634.19

So he would be losing money if he picks up the $100 bill, because he would be missing 634 dollars per second.
