Answer:
QUESTION 1:
The horizontal axis measures an economy's real GDP- 3
QUESTION 2:
As price level rises, imports become relatively cheaper than domestically produced goods- 1
Explanation:
QUESTION 1
The horizontal axis of the aggregate demand and aggregate supply measures an economy's real GDP. The GDP is the sum of all the final goods and services produced in the economy while the vertical axis of an aggregate supply and aggregate demand diagram measures the price index level.
QUESTION 2
When domestic interest rate is low compared to foreign interest rates, domestic investors invest in foreign countries where return on investments is higher. Increased outflow of currency to foreign countries, causes a decrease in real exchange rate. This decrease, increases net exports. This then, increases aggregate demand. As the price level drops, interest rates fall, investment in foreign countries becomes increased, real exchange rate falls, net exports increases and the aggregate demand then increases.

Answer:
PED = -0.4 or |0.4| in absolute terms
Explanation:
price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price
- % change in quantity demanded = [(30 - 50) / 50] x 100 = -40%
- % change in price = [($24 - $12) / $12] x 100 = 100%
PED = -40% / 100% = -0.4 or |0.4| in absolute terms
the demand is price inelastic since |0.4| < 1
this means that the change in quantity demanded is proportionally less than the change in price.
Answer:
a. U.S. wages will be higher than U.K. wages.
Explanation:
Wages, which are the factor price for labor, depend on the marginal productivity of labor.
In other words, workers are paid in proportion to the amount of additional output they produce.
In this case, the marginal productivity of a U.S. worker (10 tons of steel, or 20 tons of chemicals) is higher than the marginal productivity of an U.K. worker (5 tons of steel or 15 tons of chemicals), for this reason, the U.S. worker will be paid more than the U.K. worker.
