Answer:

It is true that raising gasoline prices (either by producing less of it, or by adding taxes) would reduce gasoline use. The concept of price elasticity of demand can helps us explain why.

Explanation:

A good can be either elastic or inelastic depending on its price elasticity of demand. A price elasticity of demand of less than 1 is considered inelastic, while a price elasticity of demand higher than 1 is considered elastic.

Elastic goods are those whose quantity demanded falls or rises more than the price. Inelastic goods are those whose quantity demanded falls or rises less than the price.

Gasoline is a inelastic good in the short-term because even with a price hike, most people will still buy gasoline because they need to move around. However, in the long-term, gasoline becomes more elastic because people replace their buy electric cars, or cars that use less fuel, etc.

What this tells us is that raising gasoline prices can reduce gasoline use in the long-term.

A built-in injustice in this measure is that it affects the poor disproportionally. Poor people also need cars to get around, and a rise in the gasoline price means that they have less money for other basic needs.

A country is in the midst of a recession with real GDP estimated to be $4.5 billion below potential GDP. The government's policy

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

a. The government needs to increase spending by $0.45 billion and decrease taxes by $0.5 billion.

b. The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by $3.6 billion.

c. The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by $4 billion.

d. If government overestimates MPC change in spending or taxes will be too small.

Explanation:

The GDP gap is $4.5 billion.

a. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.90.

Government spending multiplier

= $\frac{1}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{1}{1-0.9}$

= 10

The government needs to increase spending by

= $\frac{GDP\ Gap}{Government\ spending\ multiplier}$

= $\frac{4.5}{10}$

= $0.45 billion

Tax multiplier

= $\frac{-MPC}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{-0.9}{1-0.9}$

= -9

The government needs to decrease taxes

= $\frac{GDP\ Gap}{Tax\ multiplier}$

= $\frac{4.5}{9}$

= $0.5 billion

b. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.50.

Government spending multiplier

= $\frac{1}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{1}{1-0.5}$

= 2

If the government increases spending by $0.45 billion,

The real GDP will increase by

= $Increase\ in\ spending\ \times\ Spending\ multiplier$

= $\$ 0.45\ \times\ 2$

= $0.9 billion

The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by

= $4.5 billion - $0.9 billion

= $3.6 billion

c. Tax multiplier

= $\frac{-MPC}{1-MPC}$

= $\frac{-0.5}{1-0.5}$

= -1

If the government decreases taxes by $0.5 billion

The real GDP will increase by

= $$0.5\ billion\ \times 1$

= $0.5 billion

The real GDP will fall short of potential GDP by

= $4.5 billion - $0.5 billion

= $4 billion

d. If the government overestimates the value of the MPC, then its change in spending or taxes will be too small and real GDP will fall short of potential GDP.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

c. short-run average total cost is typically above long-run average total cost

Explanation:

In the case when the average of the total cost of the short run should be compared with the average of the total cost of the long run for a given output level so this means that the average of the total cost of the short run should be more than the average of the total cost of the long run

Therefore as per the given situation, the option c is considered

Answer:

Prospecting

Explanation:

Prospecting is the initial phase in the business procedure, which comprises of distinguishing potential clients, otherwise known as possibilities. The objective of prospecting is to build up a database of likely clients and deliberately speak with them with expectations of changing over them from potential client to current client. Prospecting, done right, not just makes a pipeline of potential clients, it positions you as a confided in guide.
