Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

The political business cycle can be defined as the fluctuations in the economy caused because of political activities. Often before elections, politicians enact expansionary policy to show economic growth to prove their competence.  

But if used in excess these policies can be harmful to the long term growth of the economy. So after getting re-elected, politicians who are aware of the negative effects of these policies will reverse these policies and adopt a contractionary policy to reduce inflationary pressures.

Basile [38]

Answer:

Hilary is a retired teacher who lives in Miami and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $50 per hour, she is willing to work 10 hours per week. At $65 per hour, she is willing to work 19 hours per week.

Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Hilary’s labor supply between the wages of $50 and $65 per hour is approximately 2.37 , which means that Hilary’s supply of labor over this wage range is elastic.

Explanation:

Midpoint elasticity = (Change in labor supplied / Average labor supplied) / (Change in wage rate / Average wage rate)

= [(19 - 10) / (19 + 10) / 2] / [$(65 - 50) / $(65 + 50) / 2]

= [9 / (29 / 2)] / [15 / (115 / 2)]

= (9 / 14.5) / (15 / 57.5)

= 0.62/0.26

Midpoint elasticity = 2.37

Once elasticity is greater than 1, supply of labor is Elastic.
