If supply and demand both increase then equilibrium price will also increase. True or False

Business
1 answer:
lukranit [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

This statement is false.

Explanation:

The change in the equilibrium price due to a change in in an increase in both demand and supply cannot be predicted without knowing the magnitude of the increase.

If the proportionate increase in the demand is greater than the increase in supply, the equilibrium price will increase.  

If the proportionate increase in the supply is greater than the increase in demand, the equilibrium price will decrease.  

If the increase in demand is proportionately equal to the increase in supply, the equilibrium price will remain the same.

A candidate for political office announces the following policies which, he says, economics clearly demonstrates will lead to hi
Leto [7]

Answer:

1. False 2. True

Explanation:

1. The candidate for political office announcing that the policy to reduce immigration from abroad which, he says, economics clearly demonstrates will lead to higher output in the long run; is false.

What increases output are the factors of production of which labor is a major component. When there are more people willing and able to work in an economy, <u>they help companies to produce more output but that is not the case when immigration is reduced, obviously that would reduce productivity and output.</u>

<u />

2. However his second claim is right, that making trade more open between the US and other countries will increase output on the long run.

Trade barriers like tariffs and duties impede the level of trade between countries which could either reduce the amount of money countries make after netting off custom duties or the price of imported goods are increased by the effect of tariffs. Increased price means reduced demand

<u>Hence if tariffs are replaced with subsidies in open trade, prices of U.S imported goods will fall and demand will increase.</u>

Jose goes to an all-you-can-eat buffet at a Chinese restaurant and consumes three plates of food. He does not go back for a four
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The marginal utility of the fourth plate is zero or below zero

Explanation:

The reason is that the law of diminishing marginal utility says that the marginal utility of a product declines upon continuous consumption of that item. This means that the utility before the consumption of first buffet was high and when the second buffet was consumed by the same person the utility was further reduced and so on. This means that the utility must be positive which if is higher enough then the customer is will to pay and eat the buffet again. If it is zero or below zero the customer is not willing to pay for the buffet. This is the reason the person doesn't ordered the item again.

You can not eat the same buffet for all the 365 days. This means the taste of a tasty food fades away after some time or I would say that the utility is gone. Same is the case when you will keep using cellphone for a period and then sell it or dispose it because the item doesn't entertains you or in other words the utility has significantly fallen and is almost zero or below zero.

At a farmer’s market, a basket of strawberries costs $20 and a basket of peaches costs $18. On Saturday, 23 baskets were sold
nlexa [21]

Based on the calculation done, there are 15 baskets of peaches.

x + y = 23 ..... i

20x + 18y = 430 ...... ii

From equation i, x = 23 - y ..... iii

Put equation iii into ii

20x + 18y = 430

20(23 - y) + 18y = 430

460 - 20y + 18y = 430

2y = 30

y = 30/2 = 15

x + y = 23.

x + 15 = 23

x = 23 - 15 = 8
