In this case, the economy had been suffering from a recession leading to lower output, aggregate demand and real GDP. The government can boost the economy by engaging in expansionary fiscal policy.
Government can implement expansionary fiscal policy by increasing government spending on goods and services, which will directly increase aggregate demand, thus boosting income and real GDP. Alternatively the government can lower tax rate. When individual tax rate falls, personal disposable income rises, increasing consumption demand and aggregate demand. When business tax rate falls, corporate net profits rise, which encourages firms to invest more in expanding their output. Higher investment by corporate firms increase aggregate demand.
Answer:
$300,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Amount the painter would like to spend on a respirator = $30
Chances of paint fume killing the painter = 0.01%
Now,
The cash value he places on the life of painter
= [ Amount spent on respirator ] ÷ [ Probability of death ]
or
= 30 ÷ 0.01%
or
= 30 ÷ 0.0001
or
= $300,000
Answer:
The quantity is likely to decrease, the change in price depends on the extent of change in demand and supply.
Explanation:
The fear of the mad cow disease lead to a reduction in the demand for beef. This caused the demand curve to move to the left.
At the same time, destruction of cattle heads ordered by the government lead to a reduction in the supply of beef. This caused the supply curve to move to the left.
This leftward shift in both demand as well as supply curve will lead to a reduction in the equilibrium quantity of beef.
The change in price of beef depends upon the extent of change in demand and supply. If both decrease by the same extent, the price will remain the same.
Answer:
1.short run aggregate supply decreases
2.short run aggregate supply decreases
3.short run aggregate supply increases
Explanation:
The short run aggregate supply is the total production of goods and services in an economy holding some factors of production fixed.
1. Even in a healthy economy. As the natural rate of unemployment increases, short run aggregate supply decreases.
2. A rise in the price of lumber (inflation) would cause a decrease in short run aggregate supply.
3. An increase in productivity caused by the acquisition of capital equipment would cause the short run aggregate supply to increase.
