Answer:

Explanation:

a) Consumers in Portland will gain from an increase in the varieties of beer available through importing. Additionally, prices will fall due to the increased competition.

b) By selling abroad, the producers in Portland will be able to lower their average costs through increasing returns to scale. However, they will face greater competition in their local market due to new varieties available from the import of beer from Aleland. As a result of the competition from Aleland, consumer demand for their variety decreases, thus driving their prices down.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

a). Unemployment rate in March=8%

b). Unemployment rate in April=9.4%

Explanation:

a).

The unemployment rate can be expressed as;

R=P/L

where;

R=unemployment rate

P=number of unemployed persons

L=labor force

In our case;

R=unknown

P=number of unemployed persons=labor force-number of employed persons

P=100-92=8 million

L=100 million

replacing;

R=8/100=0.08×100=8%

The unemployment rate in March=8%

b).Unemployment rate for April

Unemployment rate={(total unemployed+discouraged workers)/(labor force+discouraged workers)}×100

total unemployed=8 million

discouraged workers=1.5 million

labor force=100 million

replacing;

Unemployment rate=(8+1.5)/(100+1.5)=(9.5/101.5)×100=9.4%

Unemployment rate in April=9.4%
