Answer:
C
Explanation:
In this question, we are looking at what would be the later effect of the Congress taking steps to make sure that there is an increase in the amount of returns on savings for example, say the amount of interest rate on saved money is increased.
What will happen in this case is that the equilibrium interest rate would be lower while the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds will be higher. What he meant by the equilibrium interest rate is that it is the interest rate at which the amount of money demanded is equal to the amount of money supplied.
Due to the legislation by congress, it is expected that more money would be supplied in terms of bank deposits as people would want to make a higher profit off the legislation. The effect of this is that the equilibrium interest rate will be lower as its balance would have been upset my the availability of more deposits and less demand.
We also say that the equilibrium level of loanable funds will be higher. This is because there would be more money present in the vaults of the bank as savings have been encouraged and people are expected to fill the bank with more money. This thus means the bank has more money to throw around via loans as there is an increase in the amount of savings. This surely would drive up the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds
Answer:
Explanation:
1. To find the cost per unit of production, first we find the total cost. So we multiply the unit of each factor used times its cost.
capital: 2*$10=$20
raw materials: 5*$4=$20
labour: 8*$3=$24
Total cost: $20+$20+$24=$64
Then we divide the total cost over the total units produced:
Cost per unit: $64/640=$0,1 Answer is B
2. If the cost per unit of raw materials increases from $4 to 8$. Then the total cost of production will be:
capital: 2*$10=$20
raw materials: 5*$8=$40
labour: 8*$3=$24
Total cost: $20+$40+$24=$84
To find how much the cost per unit will rise, to find how much it rises
64$→100%
$84←x
x=($84*100%)/$64=131.2%
131.2%-100=31.2%. The answer is B
3. Because there is a change in raw materials, then there would be changes in the supply demand. In this case, the total cost and the cost per unit increased, then it is a negative shock to the supply demand. This is represented as a shift to the left. The answer is D
