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.

If an economy is producing at a point on its production possibilities frontier, it is: a.efficient in production and allocation.
irinina [24]

Answer:

d.efficient in production but not necessarily in allocation.

Explanation:

The production possibility curve portrays the cost of society's choice between two different goods. An economy that operates at the frontier has the highest standard of living it can achieve, as it is producing as much as it can using the same resources. If the amount produced is inside the curve, then all of the resources are not being used.

- all points on the curve are points of maximum productive efficiency

- However, an economy may achieve productive efficiency without necessarily being allocatively efficient. Market failure (such as imperfect competition or externalities) and some institutions of social decision-making (such as government and tradition) may lead to the wrong combination of goods being produced (hence the wrong mix of resources being allocated between producing the two goods) compared to what consumers would prefer, given what is feasible on the PPF.

You take out a loan for $100,000 at an annual interest rate of 5.9% that is to be paid with three equal annual payments of $37,3
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The principal repaid in the second year will be $33,296.

Explanation:

Out of each 37,341.79 payment a part of it will be principal repayment and a part of it will be interest payment. When the first 100,000 is paid (0.059*100,000)=5,900 is interest and (37,341-5,900)= 31,441 is principal repayment which means, that in the second year the principal remaining is (100,000-31,441)=68,559. So the interest payment in the second year will be (0.059*68,559)=4,045 and the principal repaid will be (37,341-4,045)=33,296.

A broker, acting as the agent of a seller, must deal honestly and fairly with whom? Group of answer choices
Doss [256]

Answer:

Everyone involved in the transaction

Explanation:

As an agent of the seller, the broker has a fiduciary duty with the seller (principal) to act of behalf of his/her best interest.

But the broker must also act honestly with the buyer, if the broker closes a deal using dishonest or unfair practices, e.g. forging documents, then the buyer might claim damages from both the broker and the seller.

And of course the broker should also make sure that his/her own rights are respected and his/her work is properly paid.
