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.
If there is no unity in a shared system, then diversity can become chaos.
Answer:
the average amount of money is 1,165
Explanation:
The computation of the average amount of money i.e. earned by each theater is shown below:
= Total number of tickets sold ÷ number of theaters
where,
The Total number of tickets sold is 879,575
And, the number of theaters is 755
Now place these values to the above formula
So, the average amount of money is
= $879,575 ÷ 755
= 1,165
hence, the average amount of money is 1,165
Answer:
monthly payment = (total amount owing+interest to be paid) / 12 months
Explanation:
Monthly repayments include the total amount owing on the credit card, plus the interest to be paid. This amount should then be divided into 12 monthly payments in order to get one constant amount to be paid each month for the 12 month period. We will assume there are no other factors affecting the amount, other than interest.
The formula to calculate the monthly repayments in the credit card is as follows:
(total amount owing + interest) / 12 months
For example, say the amount owing was $100 and the total interest to be paid was $20; the monthly repayment would be calculated as ($100+ $20) / 12 months. This would mean the credit card holder pays $120/12 = $10 per month in order to repay the debt.
