Which of the following best describes equilibrium?
QveST [7]

Answer:

C. A situation where no economic agent would benefit by changing his or her behavior

Explanation:

An economic equilibrium is when the agents are optimizing their decisions and opposing market forces are equal. This point allows the economic agents to maximize their utility and any change from this point will cause all agents to move away from potential maximum benefits.

In a natural equilibrium there is usually no government intervention so option A is false. Option B gives only one agent potential benefits and as such there is no equilibrium. Option D is conditional and may or may not happen as when the agents find missing information they would optimize again and move to an equilibrium.

Hope that helps.

The more conservative a firm's management is, the higher its total debt to total capital ratio [measured as (Short-term debt Lon
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The conservative approach is that the firm has greater level of working capital investment than the competitor or industry average. So to fund the higher level of working capital the company has a set of policy and targets related to the level of debt level which means the company will not be willing to borrow further money if their borrowing exceeds the set limit or benchmark. They might use the equity instruments (Preferred stock or Common equity) to fund the higher level of working capital.

So their no absolute argument whether the denominator will increase or the nominator will increase in the Total debt to capital ratio. Hence the statement is false.

Consider three closed economies. In the first economy, households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the r
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

b. In the first economy, the spending multiplier is greater than in the second economy. In the third economy, the spending multiplier is undefined

Explanation:

This can be easily understood by going through some calculations in a spending multiplier formula.

WORKINGS

The formula for Spending Multiplier = \frac{1}{MPS}

Spending Multiplier

Economy 1: Multiplier = \frac{1}{0.5} = 2

Economy 2: Multiplier = \frac{1}{1} = 1

Economy 3: Multiplier = \frac{1}{0} = undefined

Note: MPS can be abbreviated as Marginal propensity to save

As we can see here economy 1 is 50% greater than economy 2 and economy 3 is undefined because they spend whole dollar they earn additionally.

On behalf of the above calculations,  option B is a perfect match!
