Answer:
the European Central Bank (ECB) should engage in a contractionary monetary policy
Explanation:
A contractionary monetary policy takes place when a central bank (or the Fed) reduces the money supply in order to cool down the economy, lower inflation rate or like in this case, wants to offset expansionary fiscal policy.
The central bank initially raises the interest rates and starts selling more securities in order to absorb cash from the markets.
The correct option is: For each unit of the good that is sold, buyers bear <u>one-half of the tax burden and sellers bear one-half of the tax burden.</u>
<u>Explanation</u>:
Incidence of tax is a term referred in economics which deals with division of taxes. Tax incidence refers to division of tax among the buyer and seller for a product. The tax incidence is related to the price elasticity of supply and demand.
When a product is sold, the buyer of the product is charged with one-half of the tax burden and the seller of the product bears the other-half of the tax burden.
The incidence of tax can be observed in two ways:
i) Formal incidence
ii) Effective incidence
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
Value can be defined as the thing for which an customer is willing to pay the price. It is the activity on any shop floor or business for delivering the product or service to the customer for which the customer is ready to pay the price for it.
If the customers does not wish to pay the price, then there is no value.
So inside a factory, in a shop floor, moving a part from one place to another for making a product that the customer is willing to pay is a value added activity. But excess movement or transportation of product does not any value to it, it is then considered as a waste.
Also storing of products is a non value activity as storing a product will not help the customer in any way and a customer will not pay for a product when it is stored and is of no use to the customer.
Answer:
Explanation:
Base on the scenario been described in the question, we use the following method to solve the question
d = 75 lbs/day 200 days per year
D= 15,000 lb/year H= $3/lb/year S= $16/order
Answer:
<em>Purchasing power parity (PPP): </em>The principle suggests that if the purchasing powers are the same in two different countries, their exchange rates would be in equilibrium.
<em>Happening:</em> When inflation occurs in the US and it occurs more rapidly than in other nations, the currency, the dollar, will be less attractive to other nations. This means that the dollar's exchange rate with the currency of another nation will increase.
Explanation:
Suppose the rate of exchange between pound and dollar is 1 pound= 1.5 dollar before inflation. When inflation happens it may be 1 pound= 2 dollars.
If it has greater buying power, the currency will be demanded more. The US dollar was more requested before inflation, as 1 pound is spent on buying just $1.5. When inflation occurs, the dollar's buying power goes down and it gets less needed. 1 pound is already being spent on that time but to buy more dollars, 2 dollars.
