zysi [14]

Any type of government-funded program, such as health care, social assistance, unemployment benefits, payments to banks, and national military, can have an impact on government spending.

What is government?

The term "Government" is legal authority or system which is controlled by office, public sector, country and state.

The government's main objectives are to increase the macroeconomic supply side, which includes spending on things like education, health care, and training to increase labor productivity as well as providing subsidies to help people financially.

Government spending has a negative impact on the economy because it drives inflation by raising living expenses through subsidies. Demand is artificially raised by government subsidies.

As a result, factors including health, social services, unemployment benefits, etc. may have an impact on government spending.

Basic Earning per share = $150,000 / 700,000

Basic Earning per share = $0.2143 / share

Weighted average Outstanding shares = 500,000 + 200,000
