Answer:
b) households will save more because they will expect higher taxes in the future
Explanation:
The Ricardian Equivalence proposition is one of the pillars of classical economics, which sadly has proven to not work very well in the real world. According to classical economists, and their quantity theory of money plus the Ricardian Equivalence, recessions do not exist because it is impossible for them to exist. But in the real world, that is not true. Recessions exist, e.g. the US is in a recession since the first quarter of 2020 (even before the current health crisis). When real people lose their jobs or are afraid to lose their jobs, their spending habits change.
On the other hand, when real people get a tax refund or tax cut, they generally spend it, they will not save it to pay future taxes. That is why car sales increase during February after checks form the IRS are handed out.
Theoretically, classical economics is great. The problem is that we are human beings, and as such, our behavior cannot be controlled or determined by what we should or should not do. This is exactly why the velocity of money (quantitative theory of money) is not constant.
Answer:
The annual depreciation under SL is $16000 per year.
Explanation:
The depreciation expense under Straight Line (SL) method remains constant throughout an asset's useful life. The depreciation under straight line method is calculated by calculating the value of the asset that is eligible for depreciation, which is its cost less the salvage value (SV) and dividing it by the asset's useful life.
The straight line depreciation per year = (Cost - SV) / estimated useful life
Annual depreciation under SL = (100000 - 20000) / 5 = $16000 per year
Answer:
The answer is given below;
Explanation:

Factor market is a market in which factors of production e.g land, capital, labor are bought and sold.
In the question above, Jim(household or labor) is working at a restaurant (firm or business). This means Jim is selling his resource(labor) in the factor market while the restaurant is buying the resource(labor) in the factor market.
