Answer:
The effective rate of protection for Canada’s steel industry is 21%
Explanation:
The computation of the effective rate is shown below:
Steel percentage = (Production worth of steel) ÷ (Taconite worth)
= ($1,000,000) ÷ ($100,000)
= 10%
And the tariff rate for steel is 20%
And the taconite percentage is 10%
So, the effective rate would be equal to
= Tariff rate for steel + taconite percentage × steel percentage
= 20% + 10% × 10%
= 20% + 1%
= 21%
Answer:
B) in the short run, an unexpected change in the price of an important resource can change the cost to firms.
Explanation:
The short run aggregate supply (SRAS) curve is upward sloping because as the price of goods and services increases, the quantity supplied will increase. In the short run, wages are more sticky than prices, and businesses can adjust prices more rapidly than employees can get a raise. This will result in businesses increasing their profit margins as the general level of prices increases, therefore the SRAS curve will be upward sloping.
An unexpected change in the price of a key input will shift the entire SRAS curve either to the right (price of key input decreases) or to the left (price of key input increases).
Answer:
Real GDP will rise by $100 million
Explanation:
Aggregate Demand [AD] is total amount of goods & services, all sectors of an economy are planning to buy . So AD = Aggregate Planned Expenditure [APE]
Aggregate Supply [AS] is total amount of goods & services, all sellers are planning to sell. As total output value of goods & services produced is distributed among factors of production, AS = National Income [NY] = GDP
At equilibrium : AD or APE = AS or NY or GDP
If AD or APE increases by $100 million :
AD or APE > AS or Aggregate Planned Production or GDP . This implies willingess to buy > willingness to produce. So, inventory levels will fall below desired level. To mantain inventory level, production [AS] & income level [GDP] will rise till it becomes equal to risen AD or APE
So, GDP will also rise by $100 million
