Answer:

This proposal will not work.

Explanation:

All taxes work the same way, it doesn't matter if they are payroll taxes or taxes on goods or services. In this case, labor is the service provided by the employees (suppliers) and the employer is the consumer. A tax increase will reduce the demand for labor, and therefore the equilibrium price of labor (wage) will also decrease. If wages decreases, then workers are not going to be better off, on the contrary they will be worse off. This tax increase will lower both the wage and the employment level.

GDP does not directly include: Select one: a. the value of goods produced domestically and sold abroad. b. the value of intermed
serg [7]

Answer:

The value of intermediate goods sold during a period.

Explanation:

GDP: <em>Gross domestic product</em> include the services and the value of finished products in a given period.

However, the <em>intermediary goods </em>aren't accounted for as, there will be an error of double counting. <em>Because </em>when you count for an <em>intermediary good </em>and that good is now <em>finished</em> and part of another good, when you will count that <em>finished good</em>, the value of that intermediary good will be counted also, so this will double the numbers of your <em>GDP </em>and you will make an error.

You buy a lottery ticket to a lottery that costs $10 per ticket. There are only 100 tickets available to be sold in this lottery
Eduardwww [97]

Answer: The expected loss is $2.3

Explanation:

Total number of tickets to be sold = 100 tickets

one $450 prize, the expected gain = 450 x (1/100)  = $4.5

two $110 prizes, the expected gain = 110 x (2/100) = $2.2

four $25 prizes. the expected gain = 25 x (4/100) = $1

Expected gain (loss) = Total expected gain - Cost of the ticket

                                  = (4.5 + 2.2 + 1 ) - 10

                                  = (2.3)

The expected loss is $2.3
