Answer: The correct answer is "B) Trade can make everyone better off.".

Explanation: <u>The principle that says that Commerce can make everyone better is the one that best describes this scenario.</u>

This happens because each state in question will specialize in what is most efficient. At the same time, the rest of the products in which they are most inefficient in terms of production will be imported.

True or False: A price ceiling below $25 per box is not a binding price ceiling in this market. True False Because it takes many
jeyben [28]

Answer:

1. False

2. Shortage; Larger

Explanation:

1. A binding price ceiling is one that prevents the market from reaching its equilibrium. In this market, the equilibrium price is $25 therefore anything below $25 will be binding. A price ceiling below $25 per box is a binding ceiling.

2<em>. Assuming that the long-run demand for oranges is the same as the short-run demand, you would expect a binding price ceiling to result in a </em><em><u>shortage</u></em><em> that is </em><em><u>larger</u></em><em> in the long run than in the short run.</em>

In the long run, supply is more sensitive because farmers can decide to plant oranges on their land, to plant something else, or to sell their land altogether.

This means that a price ceiling in the long run will be less attractive to farmers so they might leave the market. If they do this then the shortage will be more as there are now less supplies in the market.

Which of the following are arguments that are given to support trade barriers?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

E To prevent dumping

Explanation:

There are several arguments that are given to support trade barriers; one of which is to prevent dumping. A country would place embargo on imports with respect to some of the goods that are produced in her country. This is to enable and encourage local production of such goods. Where a country permits importation of goods that are produced locally, such action could being down the efforts of local production ; hence local industries might not thrive in terms of production.

Also, placing embargo on the importation of goods that are produced locally in a country would take away the possibility of making the country for dumping ground in terms of goods that are not up to standard, produced in a foreign country and same would have been imported.

Too much of a good or service is produced when there is a
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.

Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible

A good has positive externality if the benefits to third parties not involved in production is greater than the cost. an example of an activity that generates positive externality is research and development. Due to the high cost of R & D, they are usually under-produced. Government can encourage the production of activities that generate positive externality by granting subsidies.

A public good is a good that is non excludable and non rivalrous. An example of a public good is a statue in a public park Everyone has assess to the statue and because one person is enjoying the view of the statue does not means another person cannot enjoy the view of the statue
