Answer:

Sue's opportunity cost of changing oil is <u>more</u> than Fred's and her opportunity cost for changing tires is <u>less</u> than Fred's.

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost is the value of next best alternative sacrifised while choosing an alternative. Eg : If I can read English or Science & opportunity cost of reading it is reading Science.

               Oil         Tires          Sacrifise Ratio  (Oil:Tires)  

Sue       20           20             20:20 = 1:1

Fred       20            10             20:10 = 2:1 or 1:0.5

Sue can change oil by sacrifising 1 unit tire, Fred can change oil by sacrifising 0.5 unit of tire. So, Sue's opportunity cost of changing oil is more than Fred's .

Fred can change tire by sacrifising 2 units of oil, Sue can change tire by sacrifising 1 unit of oil. So, Sue's opportunity cost of changing tires is less than Fred's.

Monopolistically competitive firms are unable to produce enough output to reach the average total cost because of the presence of other monopolistically competitive firms in the industry.

  • Monopolistic competition arises when several businesses provide rival goods or services that are comparable but imperfect replacements.
  • Entry barriers are low in monopolistic competitive industries, and actions made by one business do not immediately impact those of its rivals. Pricing and marketing choices are how the rival firms set themselves apart.
  • Businesses engaged in monopolistic rivalry distinguish their goods through price and marketing tactics.
  • The expenses or other impediments that prohibit new rivals from joining a market are minimal in monopolistic competition.
  • Between perfect and monopolistic competition, known as monopolistic competition, there is monopolistic competition, which incorporates aspects of both and entails businesses with comparable but distinct product offers.

Why do neoclassical economists tend to put relatively more emphasis on long-term growth than on fighting recession?
Bogdan [553]

Neoclassical economics places a larger focus on providing extra options and <u>improving living standards, </u><u>which are ultimately decided by long-term progress.</u>

As a result, it focuses on long-term growth rather than fighting recessions.

In actuality, neoclassical economics holds that a product's price is mostly influenced by its manufacturing costs. According to neoclassical economics, the primary factor for client decision-making therefore becomes price.

As a result, letting the neoclassical economists concentrate on prices is not the best way to combat the recession. Long-term economic performance is always emphasized by neoclassical economists.

Note that the neoclassical approach to macroeconomics emphasizes the idea that, over time, the economy tends to recover to its potential GDP and natural unemployment rate.
