d. The price will decrease, because dry beans and rice are inferior goods.
Explanation:
the options are missing, so I looked them up:
a. The price will decrease, because dry beans and rice are normal goods.
b. The price will increase, because dry beans and rice are normal goods.
c. The price will increase, because dry beans and rice are inferior goods.
d. The price will decrease, because dry beans and rice are inferior goods.
Inferior goods are those goods whose quantity demanded decreases as consumer income increases. This happens because inferior goods have several substitute products that cost more, but as consumer income increases, consumers will tend to purchase the more expensive substitute goods instead of the cheaper inferior ones. I.e. as consumer income increases, they will seek to purchase higher quality goods, and inferior goods are generally low quality goods that are mostly purchased by people located at the lower socio-economic classes. Other examples of inferior goods are canned meat, instant noodles and cheap frozen foods.
Since the quantity demanded of inferior goods decreases as the economy improves, the demand curve shifts to the left, which will result in a lower equilibrium price.
Answer:
<em>C. The individual unit owner</em>
Explanation:
Based on what you actually own, your maintenance responsibilities for the property – and therefore your repair costs, and so on – will vary.
Normally, a unit owner is made responsible for managing all that is a part of his unit system.
For instance, if you identify a "unit" in your condominium complex to include the outside shutters on your windows, it will be your responsibility to maintain that.
If they collapse off from each other a few years after you move in, you probably won't be able to get help from the home owners association (excluding proof that they were defective at first).
This productivity increase is best explained in term of OPERANT CONDITIONING.
Operant conditioning refers to a situation in which positive reinforcements are used to provide positive behavior. In operant conditioning, behavior is controlled by consequences. In the question given above, the positive reinforcement is the integration of the employees into profit sharing plan and the behavior that resulted from this is the significant increase in productivity.
