Answer:

Boxes of staples (maximum) that can be purchased by available income are 5.

Maximum boxes of paper clips that can be purchased by available income are 10.

Explanation:

Budget Line is the graphical representation of product combinations, that consumer can purchase with prices & income (spending all income).

It is downward sloping - as given same income & price levels, one good's consumption can be increased by reducing consumption of other good.

The intercept of downward sloping budget line is the maximum amount of that axis good which that consumer can consume with given income, price.

That maximum amount of purchasable good is Income/price of that good. Eg: Income = 100, Price of Good 1 on X axis = 10, Price of Good 2 on Y axis = 5. So :

  • Maximum amount of good 1 purchasable = 100/10 = 10. It is on X axis, x axis intercept is (10,0) ; and
  • Maximum amount of good 2 purchasable =  100/5 = 20. It is on Y axis, y axis intercept is (0,5)

Good 1 & Good 2 are analogous to Staples & Paper Clips respectively.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Natural monopoly

Explanation:

A natural monopoly refers to a type of monopoly that occurs when the start-up costs or infrastructural costs are high or economies of scale in an industry are very powerful in such a way that only the largest supplier in the industry which is usually the first supplier in the market has a great advantage over potential competitors and therefore becomes the only supplier in the industry.

On the long-run average cost (LRAC) curve, a natural monopoly exists when the quantity demanded is less than the minimum quantity that is required to be at the bottom of the LRAC curve.

Therefore, a <u>natural monopoly</u> exists when the quantity demanded in the market is less than the quantity at the bottom of the long-run average cost curve.

It depends on the result of more government intervention on quality life standards.

<u><em>Do we need less or more government involvement? </em></u>

It depends on the problems that need to be addressed. For example, to address problems such inequality it is mandatory that the government gets involve and create laws to prevent it. But surely for more movement of capitals there is no need of higher government involvement.

<u><em>Is it a question of the quality of that involvement?   </em></u>

Yes. If government has an effective involvement there is even desirable to have its intervention but if it complicates everything then is repeled.

<u><em>Could it be smarter rather than just less? </em></u>

Yes, because it is proved that the economy acts in an effective way to good policy making.

<u><em>How can the cost of government involvement decrease?</em></u>

In this aspect it is important to mention the environmental issues in nowadasy economy. If the measurement of what is defined as "cost" is understand in the long run as conservation and balance between nature and economic explotation of resources.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Hundred Days

Explanation:

The period between March 9 and June 16, 1933, when Congress passed 15 major acts to meet the economic crisis of the Depression was called <u>the hundred Days</u>. As we know that the First New Deal began in a whirlwind of legislative action called “The First Hundred Days.” From March through June 1933, at Roosevelt’s behest, Congress passed legislation aimed at addressing the banking crisis, unemployment, and weak industrial performance, among other problems, through an “alphabet soup” of new laws and agencies.

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$1059.98

Explanation:

To determine the clean price, we have to first find the accrued interest.

Accrued interest = (coupon rate × par value/2) × period (months to next coupon date/12)

accrued interest = $96/2 x 5/12

accrued interest = $48 × 0.417

= $20.016

Our  dirty price = $1080

clean price = dirty price - accrued interest

clean price = $ (1080 - 20.016)

Clean price = $1059.98
