<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
GDP is calculated as follows:
Y = C + G + I + NX
where
C = Consumption
G = Government Expenditure
I = Investment
NX = Net Exports
It is mentioned that in 2015, GDP was 50 million and in 2016, it was 48 million without any change in the factors except NX. It means the net exports that is the difference between export and the import of the country has changed and it has fallen by 2 million.

Yes, I think it is important to save for retirement as early as 18 years old. I think this so that if anything goes wrong you can have kind of like a safety net.
<span>With the boom of social media, the customer’s path to purchase has
significantly changed. Traditional, “above-the-line” advertising, specifically
done on TV, print or radio is not as effective as it was before when it comes
to convincing consumers to purchase products. More and more people would resort
to seeking advise and referrals from friends in their respective social
networks. Consumers are wiser now given that they know they have the power to get
real-time information and data simply by the act of crowdsourcing. Engaging
with friends from social media networks would give them access to more genuine
feedback or POV on certain products and services. What traditional advertising
lacks is a venue for consumers to get immediate answers to possible questions
they have on products being advertised. Consumers don’t appreciate information
shoved down their throats as they know that marketers have full control of the
messages being communicated in their ads. It’s too one-sided. There should be a
platform for dialogue which is provided by social media. This is where the
fundamental shift of power takes place as described by Mr. Safco. It’s all about engagement and two-way
communication as he puts it. </span>
Answer: 1. A - Describe how the individual pursuit of self-interest works to promote the interest of the public as a whole
2. A- Both Adam Smith and Karl Marx believed that humans are motivated by self-interest
Explanation:
1. According to Adam Smith who is known as the father of modern economics stated in his thesis that individual's self-interest and freedom of production as well as consumption is in the best interest of the society as a whole.
Each Individual's free exchange creates signals about which goods and services are valuable. These signals will spontaneously direct competing consumers, producers, distributors, and intermediaries—each pursuing their individual plans— to fulfill the needs and desires of others.
Smith’s invisible hand became one of the primary justifications for an economic system of free market capitalism.
2. Pairing that best describes Adam Smith's view of human motivation in a market economy and Karl Marx's view of human motivation in a communist economy: Both Adam Smith and Karl Marx believed that humans are motivated by self-interest as they both believe that the economy is a capitalist economy that all its good and services are in the hands of private individuals.
