Answer: $300 billion

Explanation:

The real deficit that a Government has is one that has been adjusted for inflationary effects. It is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate times the total debt from the nominal deficit.

= 1.5 trillion - ( 10% * 12 trillion)

= 1.5 trillion - 1.2 trillion

= $300 billion

VikaD [51]

Explanation:

given data

health care policy = $250

co-insurance provision = 80 %

it mean claim to be paid by insurance company = 80%

and claim to be paid by Nick =  20 %

co payment cap = $1,000

total bills = $5,000

to find out

How much will Nick have to pay for the second claim

solution

amount to be paid by insurance company and nick  = $600 - $250

amount to be paid by insurance company and nick = $350

and

we know here 80% of $350  paid by insurance company

so paid by insurance company  = 80% of $350 = $280

and  paid by Nick = $350 - $280 = $70

so Limit available to co payment = $1000 - $70

Limit available to co payment = $930

so Nick  pay maximum $930

so correct option is d. $930

If there is an unanticipated increase in aggregate demand, which of the following is most likely to occur?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

A. an increase in the price level (inflation)

Explanation:

When there is an unanticipated increase in aggregate demand it usually result in the general increase in the price level of that good demanded (inflation). This is because when there is an unpredicted increase in demand for a good, the demand becomes higher than the supply for that good at that particular period. Because the supply is now less than the aggregate demand, the prices of the commodity is then increased to discourage demand. The increase in the price of the commodity (inflation) therefore is a direct result from the increase in the aggregate demand for that commodity.
