1.1 billion? According to unicef 3 billion earn less than $2.50 so this seems like the appropriate answer.
Answer:
B...................................
Answer:
$100 billion
Explanation:
Real GDP is currently = $13.55 trillion
Potential real GDP = $14.0 trillion
Gap = $500 billion
Government purchases multiplier = 5.0
Tax multiplier = 4.0
To increase aggregate demand by $500 billion, the required increase in government expenditure is:
= (1 ÷ government purchases multiplier) × change in aggregate demand
= (1 ÷ 5) × $500
= $100 billion
Therefore, the government expenditure need to be increased by $100 billion.
Answer:
It's best to invest in the second economy
Explanation:
The question does not provide information on the hypothetical economic expectations of the two economies, but as a risk-averse investor, it's a better idea to try to "spread" the risk instead of concentrating it.
In the first economy, conditions might or might not be good. If they are good, returns will be extraordinary because all stocks will provide good returns, but if conditions take a turn for the worse, all stocks prices will fall and the financial consequences will be catastrophic.
In the second economy, results might never be as good as in the first economy, but they also will not ever be as bad. The risk is spread between various stocks, and while some may fall in price, others will rise, and viceversa. For a risk-adverse investor, this a far better option.
Answer:
b. They reflect the laws and regulations that affect social and economic behavior.
Explanation:
Morals are not universal and vary greatly depending on the underlying culture and religion. Even still in each civilization, there are many grey areas in the concept of morals. One thing that seems to be constant is that they reflect the laws and regulations that affect social and economic behavior. In this scenario, some developing countries believe that using children as a cheaper form of labor is fine since the children are getting paid and therefore, there are no laws prohibiting this action so people see it as morally correct. While other countries that see it as morally wrong have laws and regulations to prevent people from performing such actions. These laws and regulations are a form of dictating social and economic behavior by stating that it is morally wrong.
