'Elastic' goods-is something in the market that is high in demand (in publicity-and that people buy it.
Ex beef is a great example of an elastic good. If you set the beef to a higher price than usual-customers will not buy it as expectedly as before.

'Inelastic' goods like gas- is a perfect example because if you set gas in high price-customers would not question it and pay for the price of gas anyways. (Due to it fulfilling customers' needs only.)


To answer your question, a horizontal demand curve is when you have a fixed demand in price (people are buying it has demand) and that supplies have ample quantity. (Supplies are high quantity)

Demand for a good in the horizontal demand curve is 'moderately elastic' because the supplies have quantity more than the fixed demand. It fits modernly elastic-customers are not buying as much due to high price and therefore supplies of quality increases. Just like the beef example.

The Answer is A

If the horizontal demand curve is 'inelastic' then it would be the opposite- demand would be higher than the quantity of supply.

Hope this helps :)

Tresset [83]

Answer:

d. prevents the economy from producing its potential level of real GDP.

Explanation:

Price-stickiness or Wage-stickiness, is a term that describes a condition in which a nominal price or wage is resistant to change. Often referred to as Nominal Rigidity, this occurs when a price or wage is fixed in nominal terms for a given period of time.

In other words, Price stickiness or Wage Stickiness occurs when workers' earnings or price don't adjust quickly to changes in labor market conditions, thereby creating sustained periods of shortage or surplus.

Hence, Price and Wage stickiness prevent the economy from achieving its natural level of employment and its potential output, which in turn prevents the economy from producing its potential level of real GDP.
