What economic activities are not included in GDP?
laiz [17]
 
1. Illegal and unreported economic activity:  While goods such as illegal drugs, gambling, and prostitution are sold in markets, the transactions are hidden for obvious reasons.
 
2. Home production and bartered goods/services:  If cash doesn't change hands, the transaction will not be included in GDP.  One of the somewhat misleading aspects of GDP is that whether certain things are included depends not on the nature of the good or service, but whether it was (openly) exchanged for cash.

When a tax is levied on a good, the buyers and sellers of the good share the burden, A. provided the tax is levied on the seller
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Here all of these options are wrong , the correct answer is regardless of how the tax is levied the burden of tax would be shared by both the seller and buyer.

Explanation:

Tax can be said as primary source of income for the government. When a tax is levied on the goods , the burden of that would have to be bear by both buyer and seller , irrelevant of how that levied . If the taxes are high then the demand by buyer would be less and seller would receive low price because less people would buy and n the case where taxes are low demand would be high and seller would receive high prices ,in both cases tax would be levied on both seller and buyer and how much it would be depends upon the elasticity of demand and supply. So all the statements given here are false or invalid.

Your mother and father are retired and need income to live on. The local financial advisor offers to sell them a product that wi
klio [65]

Answer:

To evaluate the choice, we have to calculate the present value of future cash flows and compare it with the cost. We use the following formula

    present value    =  C ×  [ \frac{1 - (1 + i)^{-n} }{i} ]​

where

                     C = yearly payments = 75000

                     i =  interest rate  = 8%

                     n = no. of years   = 15

put the given values in above equation, we get

       Present value = 75000 ×8.559478688

                               = 641,961

Since the present value of cash flow 641,961 is less than the cost 750,000, I would not recommend it.

If Interest rate = 5%, then:

Do the same procedure as above but take i=5%

        Present value = 75000 × 10.37965804

                                = 778,474

Since the present value of future cash flows 778,474 is greater than the cost 750,000, I would recommend it.
