Answer:

The student must purchase the number of items in which the price exceeds the ability of the student to pay.

<em>The number of bags he will purchase at the price of $4, is 2, because the willingness to purchase is $4. </em>

The solution is therefore 2 sachets of jelly beans.

Whenever the student eats 2 bags of jelly beans at $4, the consumer surplus is determined as follows;

<em>Consumer Surplus</em>

<em>= ($5-$4) + ($4-$4)</em>

<em>= $1.</em>

If the short-run macroeconomic equilibrium is _________ of the economy's potential output, then there is a(n) ________ and the a
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

B. To the left; recessionary gap; fall

Explanation:

Short-Run Macroeconomic equilibrium occurs when the real GDP demand is equal to the real GDP supply. When there is a shift to the left it means GDP demand decreases below supply leading to an excess in supply of goods and services. When this happens, there's a fall in the level of employment and other indicators of recession. This will also invariably lead to a Fall in the aggregate level of price in order to attract more demand.

The opposite scenario occurs when there is a shift to the right or increase in demand.

A pressurized spray painter was purchased on April 1 of the fiscal year for $3,900. It has a useful life of 4 years and a residu
WITCHER [35]

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for the first year and the second year is shown below:

a) Straight-line method:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($3,900 - $300) ÷ (4 years)

= ($3,600) ÷ (4 years)  

= $900

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life

So, in year 2 the depreciation expense is also $900

(b) Double-declining balance method:

First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 4

= 25%

Now the rate is double So, 50%

In year 1, the original cost is $3,900, so the depreciation is $1,950 after applying the 50% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $1,950 × 50% = $975

There are some 200 economic integration agreements around the world today, far more than a few years ago.NAFTA, EU, Asean etc. V
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Economic integration agreement is when countries within a particular geographical area decide to remove or relax tariff or non-tariff barriers to trade between themselves and also to coordinate and harmonize their fiscal and economic policies. Free trade area is the simplest form of an economic integration; it is when governments of member countries agree to remove trade restriction between each other and when member countries are given the freedom to determine their own external trade policies towards non-members.  

Supporters of free trade area argue that it is beneficial to the country based on the trade creation argument. Trade creation is where high-cost domestic production is replaced by more efficiently produced imports from within the group; that is, more expensive domestic products are replaced by lower priced imports from countries within the group. The trade creation argument is hinged on the fact that a free trade area ensures that trade is generated over and above what would otherwise have happened if there was no integration. Further, the removal of tariffs allows members to specialize in those products for which they have a comparative advantage leading to a variety of cheap imports for domestic consumers, thereby increasing living standards or welfare gains. Trade creation also creates an incentive for high cost domestic producers to cut cost so as to remain competitive thereby enhancing efficiency.

On the other hand, a free trade area is criticized on the basis of trade diversion. This is where trade with a low-cost country outside the group is influenced by higher–cost products supplied from within the group; this results in a less efficient allocation of resources as trade from outside the group is replaced by trade from within the group. Trade diversion could mean that local consumers would have to buy products at less competitive prices. Another argument would be that a free trade area would lead to a removal of tariff between member countries thereby resulting in a cessation of government revenue from tariffs. As opposed to a free trade area,  free trade would increase world output and employment, raise quality and lower prices of goods as firms have access to factor inputs; it will also increase world living standards or enhances welfare gains.  A free trade agreement only restricts these potential advantages to a particular geographical space.

What are examples of the substitution effect and/or real-income effect?
Arlecino [84]

The options available are:

A. After subscription prices in the cable TV market fall, customers also purchase higher-speed Internet service.

B. Julie usually buys generic cereal because it is cheaper. One day she notices one of the brand-name products falls in price, so she decides to buy it.

C. Movie ticket prices plummet to $1, so you cancel your Netflix subscription in favor of attending movies at the theater. In addition, the cheap tickets leave you with extra money for concessions.

D. Kyle notices the cost of premium peanut butter has fallen. He considers this and then purchases less bread.

Answer:

The answers are A, B, and C

Explanation:

The options available are:

Option A. "After subscription prices in the cable TV market fall, customers also purchase higher-speed Internet service" is a perfect example of the real income effect.

Option B. "Julie usually buys generic cereal because it is cheaper. One day she notices one of the brand-name products falls in price, so she decides to buy it," is an example of the substitution effect.

While Option C. "Movie ticket prices plummet to $1, so you cancel your Netflix subscription in favor of attending movies at the theater. In addition, the cheap tickets leave you with extra money for concessions, " is an example of both the substitution and real-income effects

However, option D example "Kyle notices the cost of premium peanut butter has fallen. He considers this and then purchases less bread, " does not fit any of the substitution and real-income effects.
