In economics an externality is the cost or benefit that affects someone who did not choose this. It is the true cost of a product that can be both positive or negative. Pollution can be an example of this. An educated labor force producing more is a positive example of this. The government rewards positive externality and punishes negative externality. Rewards can be surpluses and taxes can be punishments.
Answer:
B) increases in spending to fight a recessionary gap may occur too late.
Explanation:
Time lags refers to the time that passes between making a decision and implementing the decision. For example, the FED announces its intention to increase or decrease their interest rate with a lot of anticipation, and sometimes it would be better if they just did it.
Politicians are famous for talking a lot and doing very little, and that happens in every country in the world. During recessions words aren't needed, actions are needed. The problem is that many times words are abundant and actions are scarce. A small problem that is not dealt swiftly and properly can become a huge problem.
Answer: This means: "d. Your economic profit has gone down and your accounting profit has stayed the same."
