Countries are interconnected today as never before. From eating foods from different countries to singing along to songs perform

ed by foreign bands to wearing clothes made in faraway nations, chances are you encounter something or someone from another country on a daily basis. While it may not seem like it as you go about your daily business, governments play a role in your obtaining goods and services from other countries. This unit explores how and why the government might seek to limit or promote trade between countries, as well as other business activities.
Think about the benefits that trade and interconnectedness can bring you as a consumer. Also consider the drawbacks, if any, to this increasing globalization. Should the government care about how much trade the United States undertakes with other countries? When should the government seek to promote trade? When should the government seek to limit trade?

This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings.  You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.

In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations.  However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.

I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in.  For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.

There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.

As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic.  We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.  

These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).

Which type of economy best represents individual preferences and a lack of government interference?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Market

Explanation:

A market economy also is known as a free economy

In a market economy,  individuals and businesses have the freedom to choose what they will buy or sell. They also determine the quantities, time, and the prices of the goods and services produced.  

In the market economy, the government and the market are separated. It means that the government does not interfere with the operations of the market. Self-interests drive Individuals' and firms' actions. The economy will have a  wide range of goods and services which offer customer options when buying.

Market economies are a hypothesis. No country in the world operates a pure market economy. The US economy, which gives buyers and sellers the freedom to choose, has some government interfere in the form of regulation.

When Frito-Lay introduced its Stax brand of potato chips. These chips were meant to compete directly against Pringles. The inten
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

B, penetration pricing

Explanation:

Penetration pricing is a pricing strategy in which a manufacturer sets the price of its product low for a start so as to have a wide reach and acceptability in the market.

This pricing strategy is meant to make customers ditch their usual product for the new product, thereby having the new product attracting customers to itself.

Ultimately, penetration pricing increases market share of the new product manufacturer as it gains a lot of customers within the shortest possible time.

Penetration helps to discourage new product entrance into the market thus giving the product a large/high stock turnover throughout the product's distribution channel.

In the above question, Frito lay introduced its chips at a low price of 69cents for a period of time (first few months, say 3 or 4 months for example) in order to gain market share quickly.

Cheers

When evaluating the pulmonary function test results for a COPD client, which one correlates to the mismatch of ventilation and p
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

I had to look at the options so that I could solve the exercise correctly. The options are:

A) The forced vital capacity (FVC) is high.

B) The forced expiratory volume (FEV) is decreased.

C) Total lung capacity (TLC) is decreased.

D) Marked decrease in residual volume (RV).

The correct answer is option B. In people with chronic lung disease, FVC is decreased, FEV1.0 is decreased, and the ratio of FEV1.0 to FVC is decreased. Lung volume measurements indicate a large increase in VR, an increase in total lung Cc, and an elevation in the ratio of VR to TVC.

Have a nice day!

Describe a real or made up but realistic example of a time when you might apply for a loan.
kicyunya [14]
Well people apply for loans when they need money for a certain goal. Like in the movie fantastic beasts and where to find them in the first part they are at a bank. The guy in their tries to get a loan so he can start a company as an entrepreneur. He wants to be able to own his own bakery so he could make cookies cakes and several other designs. Another reason people get loans is when their business is failing. Like the macys owner in the Florida Oviedo town mall took a few loans to help start up the company and pay to own the store their.  But it recently closed. Those are two examples of when people took a loan to either start or continue a buisness when money was short.
