nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

it does not measure quality-of-life factors ; it does not account for distribution of wealth ; it fails to measure non monetary (home production) activities

Explanation:

Real GDP is the total value of goods & services produced in an economy, during a period of time. But it is not correct measure of welfare level.

  • It does not measure non monetary production, like hobby production eg kitchen gardening, self made paintings, music. But, they increase welfare
  • It does not take into consideration the qualitative factors affecting welfare like pollution, crime & literacy. Externalities cause extra benefit or harm to welfare level, but are excluded from GDP.
  • Inequitable distribution of  per capita (average) GDP increases rich poor standard of living divide. So, the distribution effect ignored make GDP an inapt measure of average welfare level.

Real GDP adjusts the value of goods & services for price change (Inflation), it is a correct measure of increase in real flow of goods & services. GDP & health positive correlation is a favouring point for GDP as a measure of welfare. So, these options are incorrect.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

C. Neither Mary nor Sharon can claim breach of contract.

Explanation:

Mary buys a lottery ticket and promises to buy her friend Sharon a new pair of shoes if she checks the lottery results while Mary is away.

Sharon agrees to do so, provided she has the time for it.

If Sharon fails to check the results and Mary wins the lottery,  then it would be true of the contract between Mary and Sharon that Neither Mary nor Sharon can claim breach of contract.

The reason is Mary's promise is based on the condition that Sharon checks the result, Sharon's promise is based on the condition that 'if she has the time for it.'

The condition was not met by Sharon hence she cannot claim a breach of contract because she did not check the results, similarly, Mary cannot sue Sharon because sharon made it clear that she will only check If she has the time.

denpristay [2]

Answer: D. Heidi's share of profits is split among the remaining 3 partners.

Explanation: A general partnership is a form of business arrangement by which two or more individuals agree create a business, sharing in all assets, profits, and financial and legal liabilities. However, unless there is a signed written agreement between partners when starting the business, with a clause setting out what would happen on the occurrence of death, the general partnership dissolves after the death of a partner. If the partnership terminates, then the assets and outstanding liabilities are all sold and the proceeds are divided equally among the partners. Therefore, Heidi's share of profits is split among the remaining 3 partners.
