Explanation:
The United States Budget for 2010 titled "A New Era of Responsibility: Renewing America's Promise by President Barack Obama's budget in 2010 was $3.456 trillion for expenditure and total revenue was $2.163 which led to a budget deficit of $1.294 trillion.

Answer:
b. the price of a good will eventually rise in response to an excess demand for that good.
Explanation:
As more people are willing to purchase the good the price will rise. Because, the supplier can offer up to certain amount given their current production factors thus, this increase in demand is met with an increase of price. In the future this increase in price which generates more producer surplus will make more company’s invest in the business or the current ones will develop new ways of production to produce more and therefore; lowering the price.
Answer:
Price elasticity of demand shows how much a 1% change in the price of a good or services changes the quantity demanded.
In the short run, a 10% increase in price decreases quantity demanded by 4%
PED short run = % change in price / % change in quantity = 4% / 10% = 0.4
PED long run = % change in price / % change in quantity = 7.5% / 10% = 0.75
Both PEDs are inelastic since they are less than 1, which means that an increase in price will result in a proportionally smaller decrease in the quantity demanded. But the PED in the long run is less inelastic, which means that an increase in price will decrease the quantity demanded more in the long than in the short run.
This happens because smokes consider that cigarettes are a basic necessity, so they are willing to purchase them even if the price increases. But as time passes (long run), more smokers will consider that it is not worth paying that much for cigarettes and will probably quit smoking or at least reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke per day.
