Answer:
C. Both (i) and (ii) are true
Explanation:
Under perfect price discrimination, consumer surplus doesn't exist since the supplier is selling the good or service at the maximum price that each consumer is willing to pay. This situation maximizes supplier surplus.
Under perfect competition, both supplier and consumer surplus exist.
Since total social surplus = supplier surplus + consumer surplus, total surplus should be the same in both situations.

Answer:
a. Increase in Net Exports, Increase in AD, real GDP will stay same
b. Excess Demand
c. Appropriate Contractionary Fiscal Policy : decrease tax & or increase government expenditure
d. Actions smooth business cycle by brining actual real GDP towards full employment
Explanation:
Aggregate Demand is the total value of goods & services all the sectors of an economy are planning to buy during a given period of time
Aggregate Demand [AD] = Consumption [C] + Investment [I] + Government Expenditure [G] + Net Exports [NX = Exports (X) - Imports (M)]
Aggregate Demand > Aggregate Supply at full employment level is Excess Demand. Aggregate Demand < Aggregate Supply at full employment level is Deficit Demand
Decrease in Investment leads to fall in Aggregate Demand. It creates Deficit Demand & decreases real GDP. It can be corrected through demand expansionary fiscal policy of decreasing taxes & increasing govt. expenditure.
Increase in exports leads to increase in net exports & in turn increase in aggregate demand. This causes Excess demand problem & real GDP will remain same (economy already at full equilibrium, GDP cant be increased more). Appropriate Fiscal Policy [Contractionary Fiscal Policy] includes decreasing taxes & or increasing govt. purchase.
These actions will smooth out business cycle by bringing actual real GDP back to full employment level.
Answer:
When labor productivity is high.
Explanation:
According to neoclassical economic theory, real wages are equal to the marginal product of labor (MLP). The marginal product of labor is the extra output produced by one extra unit of labor (one extra worker).
If the MPL is high, this means that workers are very productive, and therefore, are paid a high real wage accordingly.
This is why countries with high labor productivity like the U.S. or Switzerland also have very high real wages.
