Answer: technological discovery; economic dislocation

Explanation:

In the scenario described, Karen had spotted an entrepreneurial opportunity that was created by the new extraction technique, or a technological discovery. When there's a technological discovery, there will be new opportunities for people.

The technological discovery created an oil boom or an economic dislocation. When there's a change in economic conditions as a result of displacement of some workers, we say the affected people have been dislocated from the affected economy, in terms of employment.

If the world price for good A is above the domestic price for good A without trade, then producer surplus will ________ and tota
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": increase; decrease.

Explanation:

Producer surplus is the difference between the price at which the manufacturer actually sells a product and the minimum price the manufacturer would have accepted. The surplus results from the producer being able to sell their goods at a market price higher than their minimum price.  

So, <em>if producer A manufactures a product that is being sold at a higher price level abroad, its producer surplus will </em><u><em>increase</em></u><em>. However, the overall economic surplus with trade will </em><u><em>decrease</em></u><em> since the introduction to producer A to the market will allow consumers to purchase the goods at a lower price</em>.
