Answer:

Change in government expenditure needed = 300

Explanation:

Multiplier 'k' = Change in Income / Change in Govt. expenditure =  dY / d GE = 1 / ( 1-MPC )

Desired change in Y, ie GDP = 900 billion , MPC = 2 / 3.

k = 1 / ( 1 - 2/3 ) = 1 / ( 1/3 ) = 3

3 = 900 / d GE

d GE = 900 / 3 = 300

Change in government expenditure = 300

A new labor-saving technology will likely result in..... Group of answer choices Lower wage share of output and lower Gini coeff
jekas [21]

Answer:

Higher unemployment, lower wage share of output, and higher Gini coefficient in the long run.

Explanation:

Since less labor will be used, total unemployment will increase. Besides less labor being used, more capital will be used, so the share of labor in total output will decrease. Labor efficiency increases, since you need less labor to produce the same or even a larger amount of output.

New technologies tend to increase the wages of high skilled labor and management. Since the Gini coefficient measures income inequality, then higher wages for a few will increase inequality.  

This is an example of what is happening in the US, where highly trained labor is getting paid better every time while unskilled labor is getting paid the same as many years ago or their wage has even decreased with time. This shows how important a college education is, and the difference will only keep increasing.

xenn [34]

Answer:

True (1)

Explanation:

In deciding whether to buy a particular product, it is important to consider  below pertinent issues :

Serviceability : questions need to  be asked whether the product can be serviced regularly to keep it in usable condition and possible cost of servicing must as well  be considered.

Repairability  : Seller must be asked if the product is repairable in case it is faulty.

Accessories : Availability of accessories in the market must be confirmed from the seller in case we need to replace any part.

Failure to sort out above  issues before buying  may result in wasting of money at the end of the day even though product might have been bought  at a cheaper lock-in price.
