Business
1 answer:
saw5 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

A monopoly is a market structure where there is only one supplier of a product and many buyers. An example of a monopoly is Microsoft; it is a price setter in the market. Abuse of monopoly power can occur when a firm dominates the market meaning no competitors within the industry. This abuse   could be in form of limiting output or setting higher prices to benefit from supernormal profits . This therefore leads to less choice for consumers.Over time, monopolies can become less innovative because they do not have competition and causing the market to fail and be inefficient; the price mechanism fails to take into account all of the costs and/or benefits of providing and consuming a good.

Is Gold a Good Store of Value?

For long periods of time, yes, gold is an excellent store of value.

Until 1971, the U.S. was on the gold standard. This meant that the price of gold was fixed at $35 per troy ounce. Since that time however, the price of gold has increased by about 8% per year, more than twice the rate of inflation, and much more than bank interest rates.

This doesn't mean that there haven't been ups and downs. Between 1980–2000, the price of gold declined considerably.

However, with governments printing more and more money due to the coronavirus and pension crises, it seems likely that gold will continue to hold its value well.

The government of Concordia adopted expansionary fiscal policies in the last two years with the aim of increasing employment.​ H
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "E": The government implemented a generous welfare plan 3 years ago to support people who cannot find work.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt, a government implemented fiscal policies to increase employment for the past two years but the rate has not risen since then. One of the reasons for such a situation could be <em>generous welfare support</em> implemented one year before the fiscal policy measures started.  

<em>If the benefits for the unemployed increase they will be discouraged to return to the labor force</em>. It implies the government should keep the welfare benefits at a level from where unemployed individuals can cover basic needs only but encourage them to find a job to be productive for the economy.
