Answer:
The correct answer is What Goods and Services should be produced.
Explanation:
The problem ‘what to produce’ can be divided into two related questions. First, which goods are to be produced and which not; and second, in what quantities those goods, which the economy has decided to produce, are to be produced. If productive resources were unlimited we could produce as many numbers of goods as we liked and, therefore, the question “What goods to be produced and what not” would not have arisen. But because resources are in fact scarce relative to human wants, an economy must choose among different alternative collections of goods and services that it should produce.
If the Society decides to produce particular goods in a larger quantity, it will have to withdraw resources from the production of some other goods. Further, an economy has to decide how much resources should be allocated for the production of consumer goods and how much for capital goods. In other words, an economy has to decide the respective quantities of consumer goods and capital goods to be produced.
The choice between consumer goods and capital goods involves the choice between the present and the future. If the society decides to produce more capital goods, some resources will have to be taken away from the production of consumer goods and. therefore, the production of consumer goods would have to be cut down. But greater amount of capital goods would make possible the production of larger quantities of consumer goods in the future. Thus, we see that some current consumption has to be sacrificed for the sake of more consumption in the future.
Answer: $1,021,382
Explanation:
The Consumer Price index (CPI) is an economic measure that enables us calculate inflation. It checks for a price changes in a group or basket of goods and then averages these price changes to find out how much they may have changed overtime.
A higher CPI means prices have increased.
CPI can then be used to calculate the potential values of goods in different years using another year as a base. This means that prices of goods in one year can be written in terms of prices in another year.
This can be done by Dividing the CPI in the current year by the CPI in the base year (year being expressed in terms of) and then multiplying the result by the price of the good in question.
In this case the good is the salary of $75,000.
The 2007 equivalent of a 1931 salary will therefore be,
= 75,000 * ( 207/15.2)
= $1,021,381.57
= $1,021,382
Answer:
Steak is a normal good, and hamburger is an inferior good for Jennie
Explanation:
Based on this behavior, we can assume steak is a normal good, and hamburger is an inferior good for Jennie. That is because a normal good is any good who's demand increases when there is a rise in the consumers' income, while an inferior good sees decreased demand due to a rise in income. Therefore, since Jenna buys more (increased demand) steak and less (decreased demand) hamburger due to her increased income this means that steak is a normal good, and hamburger is an inferior good for Jennie
<span>Foreign companies and investors benefit the most from a falling dollar. When the amount that a dollar can buy depreciates, it becomes more expensive, relatively, to purchase foreign goods. In addition and because of this depreciation, it also becomes relatively less expensive for foreign investors to purchase domestic goods, which means that foreign companies can buy more from US-based businesses.</span>
