Government spending is a fiscal policy that government uses to achieve a set of objectives (i.e. to supply goods and services that are not provided by the market or private sector – construct bridges, provide health facilities, social programmes for the poor among others).
Taxes – Tax is a fiscal policy tool used by the government to generate revenue, encourage or discourage the consumption of certain products or affect aggregate demand through income redistribution.

Trade policy is a fiscal policy as government can use it to control aggregate demand by placing embargo on the importation of certain products to reduce the demand of such products in the local economy.
Answer:
It is more profitable to continue processing the units.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Product A:
Units= 23,000
Selling price= $420,000
Continue processing:
Product B= 6,000 units sold for $106 each
Product C= 11,900 units sold for $52 each
Total cost= $280,000
We need to calculate the effect on the income of both options and choose the most profitable on<u>e. We will not take into account the first costs of Product A because they are irrelevant.</u>
Option 1:
Effect on income= $420,000
Option 2:
Effect on income= (6,000*106) + (11,900*52) - 280,000
Effect on income= $974,800
It is more profitable to continue processing the units.

Answer:
. All countries can gain from trade if they all specialize in production according to comparative advantage
Explanation:
Comparative advantage is when a country produces a product at a lower opportunity cost when compared with its trading partners.
Absolute advantage is when a country produces more quantities of goods and services than its trading partners.
A country can still have comparative advantage in production if opportunity cost is increasing once it's opportunity cost doesn't become greater than that of its trading partners.
A country can have comparative advantage without having absolute advantage.
