5 0

Answer:

$5,000 billion

Explanation:

We know that

Government spending multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - marginal propensity to consume)

Government spending multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - 0.50)

Government spending multiplier = 1 ÷ 0.50

So, Government spending multiplier = 2

If the output is increased by $10,000 billion then, the government spending would rise by

= Output ÷ Government spending multiplier

= $10,000 ÷ 2

= $5,000 billion

melisa1 [442]

Answer: Price ceilings are beneficial to society, and are often necessary, in that they make sure that essential goods are financially accessible to the average person, at least in the short run. By lowering costs, price ceilings also have the beneficial effect of helping to stimulate demand, which can contribute to the health of an economy.

However, there can also be downsides to price ceilings. While they stimulate demand, price ceilings can also cause shortages. Where the ceiling is set, there is more demand than at the equilibrium price. This means that the amount of the good or service supplied is less than the quantity demanded.

For example: in agriculture, medicine, and education, many governments set maximum prices to make the needed goods or services more affordable. Producers may respond to such an economic situation by rationing supplies, decreasing production levels or lowering the quality of production, making the consumer pay extra for otherwise free elements of the good (features, options, etc.), and more.

Assume that you are a high-level manager for a shoe manufacturer. You know that your firm could increase its profit margin by pr
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The issue here is that you need to balance your company's profits and possible negative due to bad press.

On one side (the good and righteous side), if you do not produce shoes in Asia, your long term survival economic is doubtful, but people view your company as a company that does the right thing no matter what. Will it increase sales? Theoretically it should, but in practice it doesn't. Are Nike sales hurt because each shoe is produced in an Asian country that pays $0.25 per day? No, they aren't. The same applies to Reebok, Adidas, Puma, New Balance and every single major shoe manufacturer in the world. Bad press hurt tuna back in the 80's, but some companies are not affected by it.

The alternative (the evil, dark side of the force side) results in your company being able to survive on the long term. It will not necessarily mean that your company will grow and become the world's largest shoe manufacturer, but you will be able to survive and continue to operate.

There is also a trick that you can use to avoid reputational damage and bad press, and that is to establish a foreign subsidiary in Indonesia using a different name. Then your foreign subsidiary sells you the manufactured goods, and the blame fall son the subsidiary. Believe it or not, that simple solution is used by most corporations including clothing manufacturers, electronics, toys, etc.

If you analyze this from an ethical point of view, the alternative is much simpler. Producing in Indonesia (or India, or Burma, or Pakistan, or Vietnam, etc.) and paying a $100 salary will allow a family to live a very decent life and probably even prosper. They will have a much better lifestyle than the rest of their neighborhood. Each Indonesian worker represents one less poor family in Indonesia. On the other hand, American families will probably get hurt, but it is also much easier for an American worker to get another job that pays a normal wage (in US standards) and allows them to live well.
