Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": represents the universality of exchange rate systems.

Explanation:

Purchasing Power Parity or PPP compares different countries' currencies through a market's basket of goods approach. Two currencies are in PPP when a market basket of goods, taking into account the exchange rate is priced the same in both countries. PPP currency rates are considered more accurate than market-exchange rates.

Imagine you are a consultant who has been asked to summarize the strengths and weaknesses of Agoria, a nation with a pure market
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Two weaknesses as consultant can be identify: The economy experiences economic fluctuations, and people with no resources to sell could starve

Explanation:

In a pure market economy, the allocation of resources is based on purely the dynamics between supply and demand. If our economy is closed (there is no imports nor exports) and there is not different actors (such as government) and all trade goods are perfect (they are not public or semi-public goods), then the market will efficiently allocate all the resources. Nevertheless, this is not the case, and with an open economy and the existence of imperfections, any external impact will cause economic fluctuations, and those workers with no demandable offer will not be hired, and potentially will be out of the market.

Neko [114]

Answer:

Catering's 2008 EBIT is $11.47 million

Operating cash flow = EBIT + Depreciation – Taxes

OCF = $8.14 million + $2.14 m illion

Operating cash flow = 10.28 million

EBIT = Operating cash flow - Depreciation + Taxes  

EBIT = 10.28 million - 0.95 million + 2.1 4 million

EBIT = $11.47 million

Catering's 2008 EBIT is $11.47 million

In​ 2008, as a financial crisis began to unfold in the United​ States, the FDIC raised the limit on insured losses to bank depos
Tomtit [17]

The FDIC stands for Federal Deposit Insurance Company.

By raising the limit on insured losses the FDIC helps stabilize the system by instilling confidence.

If the consumer knows that their savings accounts are protected up to $250,000 they will be encouraged to spend money during a time of crisis.

Because of the increased limit, there is less probability that there would be something called

"a run on the bank."

Which of the following is an example of the law of diminishing marginal​ returns? A. Holding capital​ constant, when the amount
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

The law of diminishing returns states that as we go on employing more and more unit of input while keeping other inputs constant, the return from each additional unit of input will go on declining.  

This means that the output produced from each additional unit of input will go on declining.

Here, as capital is kept constant and labor is increased by a unit, the output at first increases by 5 units from 20 to 25. But later when input is again increased by a unit, the output increase by only 3 units from 25 to 28.

This shows the law of diminishing marginal returns where the marginal returns from a unit of labor is declining.
