Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": increase government expenditures or increase the money supply.

Explanation:

Fiscal policy refers to the joint governmental decisions concerning taxation and spending of a nation. The term was coined by the British economist John Maynard Keynes (<em>1883-1946</em>) who claimed that governments could control rates of macroeconomic growth by raising the rate of employment, battling inflation and flattening business cycles.

Whether increasing government expenses or money supply, the overall economy will be balanced as long as the prices are going up as well.

Answer:

b. increase government expenditures or decrease the money supply  

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>If the government wanted to stabilize output, there are a couple of levers they could pull. These are fiscal policies and monetary policies, fiscal policy, is all about changing how much we spend, if government has more money to spend, they can better negotiate and also decide how money is spent to a degree. So, the theory is if the government spends more, that would increase total output. The second lever to pull is messing with the money supply, monetary policy, If maybe there's more money out there, lower interest rates, it might increase output however because we are dealing with the price of imported oil decreasing the money supply would be the move to make because by decreasing the money supply we can make our currency more valuable, it's important to remember that the price of imported oil would not be affected by domestic monetary policies. If the money supply were increased our currency would devalue which would be counterproductive because a weaker currency means we pay more for imports. </em>

A new building that costs $1,400,000 has a useful life of 10 years and a scrap value of $100,000. Using straight-line depreciati
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

V = $1,400,000 - $130,000t

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of the new building = $1,400,000

Useful life = 10 years

Scrap value = $100,000

Now,

using the straight line method

Annual depreciation = [ Cost - Scrap value ] ÷ Useful life

= [$1,400,000 - $100,000 ] ÷ 10

= $130,000

Value of building = Cost of the building - Depreciation for 10 years

V =  $1,400,000 - [ Annual depreciation × Time ]

V =  $1,400,000 - $130,000t

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The option for this question are the following:

A. Concurrent

B. Statistical

C. Inventory

D. Feedforward

The correctt answer is D. Feed forward.

Explanation:

Feedforward is the process by which feedback between company members focuses more on future possibilities. That is to say, it is not only about communicating but about doing it thinking about increasing the opportunities that the company has and will be able to have later.

The problem we had when we talked about feedback was that it focused on aspects of the past. Communication was thought of as something of the moment, without determining an intention to take it to another level. The ‘feed’ forward would come into play here.

What is intended with the feedforward is to establish links and ideas, so that teamwork makes business organization easier. Brainstorming and the sharing of solutions and aspects for the company mean that employees can aspire to a positive work future.

In 1-2 sentences, explain why scarcity exists.
prohojiy [21]
Scarcity refers to a state of being in short supply.

Scarcity exists because distribution of resources is unequal. Majority of the people tend to get more than they need in preparation for future uses. They did not take into consideration that other people also need the items they have stocked up on. This results to unequal distribution of resources. Those who had first access to the goods have more than they need while those who came last have goods that is not enough to sustain their needs. They are the ones experiencing scarcity.
