Answer:

0.5% increase

Explanation:

the price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price. It measures how the quantity demanded changes in response to a 1% increase in price.

The price elasticity of supply (PES) = % change in quantity supplied / % change in price. It measures how the quantity supplied changes in response to a 1% increase in price.

In this case the demand increases, which should result from a decrease in price, but in order to satisfy the demand, the supply must increase and to do so, it will increase only by 1 / (1 + 1) = 1/2 of the original change in quantity demanded = 0.5%

Our society is increasingly becoming more diverse. Discuss how this affects you as an individual, an organization, and society a
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer

Hello,

Well, a diverse society is stable and alive with positive dynamics, easy to adapt to changes and always geared towards a positive evolutionary.

As an individual, a diverse society offers greater opportunity for personal and professional growth.

In the society, diverse cultural views can inspire creativity and innovation. A diverse society has a pool of diverse skills base which allows an organization to produce broader and more adaptable range of goods and services.

A challenge in this is that integration across multicultural groups can be difficult due to negative cultural stereotypes. Some countries require navigating visa and application of employment laws that could be challenging requirements.

Diversity quotas in colleges can be outlawed but still allow colleges to consider race in admitting students.

Wish you luck!

uysha [10]

Answer:

Ricardo’s Theory of Comparative Advantage

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is the term used to define the ability of an individual, firm or country to produce a particular good or service at a lower opportunity cost than that if it’s competitors or trade partners. Opportunity cost is the benefit lost from the second best alternative.

When a country can produce a product more efficiently (i.e maximum output using minimum resources) than that of its trade partners, it is known as that it has absolute advantage in that product. India tends to have absolute advantage in both business processes outsourcing as well as producing agricultural commodities as it is mentioned that it can produce both of these more efficiently than the United States.

However, although it has absolute advantage in both, it is still less efficient in producing agricultural commodities when compared to business process outsourcing. In other words, if it attempts to produce agricultural commodities in-house, the benefit lost from the second best alternative: business process outsourcing is high. The opportunity cost is higher when it produces agricultural commodities than it is when it does business process outsourcing. Hence, due to the law of comparative advantage, it chooses to specialize in business process outsourcing and imports agricultural commodities.
