How does gross domestic product (GDP) represent the health of an economy? List two ways that a GDP is representative of the over

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer

Hi,

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) represents the health of an economy by measuring the total income of the economy and total expenditure of the economy on goods and services. When the GDP is strong, workers in the country are hired more and the companies can afford to pay the needed wages resulting to more spending by customers. More firms will invest in various business operations when the GDP is strong. Higher the investments will mean a growing economy in future.
GPD represents an overall strength/weakness of an economy in the following ways;

• A strong GDP represents strength of an economy because companies will employ more workers and pay better salaries and wages. This will mean that people will have more to spend for goods and services enabling the government to get taxes.

• A weak GDP represents a weakness in the economy in that firms will lose the confidence to invest more because the economy will be proceeding to recession. Employees might face retrenchment and wages/salaries may be lower than expected.

Best Wishes!

Coffee was first grown in Colombia in the 1800s; specifically what part of the country is famous for its coffee production?

BARSIC [14]

Answer: Central part of Colombia

Explanation: It is believed that coffee was introduced to Colombian in the 16th century, but that they had not yet decided on coffee production. The reason was that it took five years for the first crop and people worried that they would survive that time. Later in the 1800's, coffee began to be mass produced and the first major exports were in 1835 to the United States. Later, the volume of exports steadily increased.

Colombia is considered to have specific regions in terms of hours of sunshine, wind, humidity, droughts and anything else that is conducive to brewing coffee. Because of these conditions, coffee production is most prevalent in central Colombia, where the conditions are such that coffee can be grown and harvested throughout the year. It's the so-called Colombia coffee zone "eje cafetero" and these are areas of Caldas, Quindio, Risaralda and the north of Valle.
