Explanation:
Classifying of each situation with the correct combination of change in price and quantity:
a. On a hot day, both demand for lemonade and supply of lemonade increase - Pp? Q increase
b. On a cold day, both demand for ice cream and the supply of ice cream decrease - Pp? Q decrease
c. When Hawaii's Mt. Kilauea erupts violently, the demand on the part of tourists for sightseeing flights increases but the supply of pilots willing to provide these dangerous flights decreases- P increase Qq?
d. In a hot area of Arizona where they generate a lot of their electricity with wind turbines, the demand for electricity falls on windy days as people switch off their air conditioners and enjoy the breeze. But at the same time, the amount of electricity supplied increases as the wind turbines spin faster - P decrease Qq?
Answer:
Explanation:
Often scarcity is caused by a combination of demand and supply induced effects. A rise in demand, e.g. due to rising population causes overcrowding and population migration to other fragile ecological areas
Answer:
1.4
Explanation:
Given that
Q1 = 200
P1 = $200
Q2 = 300
P2 = $ 150
Recall that
Midpoint formula = Q2 - Q1/(Q2 + Q1)/2 ÷ P2 - P1/(P2 + P1)/2
= 300 - 200/(300 + 200)/2 ÷ 150 - 200/(150 + 200)/2
= 100/250 ÷ -50/175
= 0.4 ÷ 0.285
= 1.4
Answer:
The correct answer is: expressed in the prices of a base year.
Explanation:
Real GDP is an inflation-adjusted measure to calculate changes in economic output. It calculates the value of final goods and services produced in an economy in a year expressed in the prices of a base year.
Real GDP does not include changes in the price of products as it is calculated at constant prices.
Nominal GDP, on the other hand, is calculated on the basis of current prices. It includes changes in prices and is not inflation-adjusted. That is why real GDP is preferred over nominal GDP.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
In a perfectly competitive market, all producers sell identical goods or services. Additionally, there are many buyers and sellers. Because of these two characteristics, both buyers and sellers in perfectly competitive markets are price takers. Market price is set by the forces of demand and supply.
If the seller attempts to set his own price and sets it above the market price, the seller would lose all its customers and make zero sales.
If the seller attempts to set his own price and sets it below the market price, the seller would make losses .
