Answer:
40
Explanation:
According to Ricardian theory, any change in budgets deficits or surpluses should be completely offset by an equal change in private savings.
In this case, the original amount of private savings was 80, but since the budget deficit decreased by 40, then the private saving should also decrease by 40. The total private saving = 80 - 40 = 40
Could be true. Banks use the stored money to invest, and if they make the right investments, theoretically they can have excess in money, investing more with the excess, and this keeps happening.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
In a competitive market, if production (and consumption) continues until the marginal benefit of one more unit equals marginal cost, then total surplus is maximized.
As for any extra unit produced
Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = Surplus
Marginal Benefit = Marginal cost = No Surplus / No loss
Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = loss
When your Marginal benefit is maximum and Marginal cost is minimum then the surplus will be maximized.
Most efficient situation in which benefit is maximum and the cost is minimum results in maximized surplus.
