Answer:

Q = min[3B; 40L]

Explanation:

This is an example of Leontief production function in which factors of production, in this case B and L, are used in fixed proportion that is determined by the production technology which makes  substitutability between factors impossible.

If we assume that 3 ounces of B and 40 minutes of L are always required to produce one unit of espresso represented by Q, the functional form of the production function can be written as follows:

Q = min[3B; 40L].

pishuonlain [190]

<u>Answer: </u>

The interest rate effect explains why the aggregate demand curve is downward sloping.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • The interest rate effect proposed by Keynes suggests the reasons for why is the aggregate demand curve downward sloping.
  • It states that, when the interest rates are low, people choose to invest owing to the decreased costs of investment. This investment stimulates a drop in the levels of price.
  • The dropped prices thus increase the aggregate demand for the commodities of which the price has dropped.
