Explanation:

given data

MPC = 0.80

GDP = $40 billion

to find out

the size of the recessionary gap

solution

we get here first Multiplier  that is

Multiplier  = \frac{1}{1-MPC}     ..................1

Multiplier  = \frac{1}{1-0.80}

Multiplier  = 5

so recessionary gap will be

recessionary gap = \frac{GDP}{5}     ................2

recessionary gap = \frac{40}{5}

recessionary gap = 8 billion

Summary and reflection ....<br>how can we manage the problem of scarcity ?
Effectus [21]

The main thing we can do to manage the problem of scarcity is to not overspend.

Scarcity happen when the number of demand in our society heavily outnumber the amount of  resources available. By observing our consumption behavior today, we will notice that a lot of people spend money to buy more goods or services that they actually need.

If we control this overspending behavior, not only people who overspend can save some of their money, there will be a lot of goods/services left for other people.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

demand of

Fall

decrease

Explanation:

Here are the options to this question:

1.expect the (supply of/ demand of )

2.forecasters to (increase/ decrease)

3. weather forecasters to (decrease/ increase)

The new technology would reduce the need for weather forecasters. So t.v. stations and radios would no longer employ weather forecasters and might even lay off some forecasters. So the demand for forecasters would fall.

Due to the reduced demand for forecasters, there would be a large number of unemployed forecasters with no one willing to employ them. This would lead them to a reduction in their salary. When supply exceeds demand, prices fall.

I hope my answer helps you

Sergio [31]

12/3 = 4

Therefore, the number of new clients will increase by 4.

Explanation:

In getting new client, Sam takes 5hours, while Terasa takes 3hours.

In preparing food, Sam takes 10hours while Teresa takes 12hours.

It can be seen that Sam has absolute advantage and comparative advantage in preparation of food, while Tesesa has absolute advantage and comparative advantage in getting new client.

Sam with the comparative advantage in food preparation will take over preparing food for one more event by taking the necessary time away from getting more clients, and Teresa will use the freed-up time from not preparing food for one event to get more clients.

Teresa will free up 12hours she used in the preparation of food.
