(B) $20 billion
Explanation:
Given a certain level of MPC, an increase in government spending (G) by a certain amount translates to an increase in aggregate demand (AD) through the relationship below.
where Δ means <em>change.</em>
<em />
Therefore, given ΔAD of $50 billion, and MPC of 0.6,

= 
= ΔG = 50 * 0.4 = 20

Answer:
$38,750 Favorable
Explanation:
Fixed overhead absorption rate:
= Fixed Overhead Costs for March (static budget) ÷ Production(static budget)
= $387,500 ÷ 31,000
= 12.5 per unit
Fixed overhead production−volume variance:
= Amount actually applied - Amount budgeted
= (12.5 × 34,100) - $387,500
= $426,250 - $387,500
= $38,750 Favorable
Answer:
. All countries can gain from trade if they all specialize in production according to comparative advantage
Explanation:
Comparative advantage is when a country produces a product at a lower opportunity cost when compared with its trading partners.
Absolute advantage is when a country produces more quantities of goods and services than its trading partners.
A country can still have comparative advantage in production if opportunity cost is increasing once it's opportunity cost doesn't become greater than that of its trading partners.
A country can have comparative advantage without having absolute advantage.

Answer:
$17,000
Explanation:
Amount Deposited into checking account = $1,700 cash
Required reserve ratio = 0.10
Money multiplier = 1 ÷ Required reserve ratio
= 1 ÷ 0.10
= 10
Change in money supply = Amount deposited × Money multiplier
= $1,700 × 10
= $17,000
Therefore, the increase in total money supply would be $17,000.
