The general increase in prices over time we pay for good and services is known as inflation. question 5 options: true false
Gala2k [10]

It is true that the general increase in prices over time we pay for goods and services is known as inflation.

<h3>What is inflation?</h3>

Inflation is the term used to describe an increase in the price of goods and services that households buy. It is determined by how quickly these prices fluctuate. Prices frequently rise with time, but they can also fall (a situation called deflation).

The main categories of inflation are as follows:

Demand-pull inflation: It explains how rising prices for products and services can result from increased demand. People will typically pay more for something if there is a shortage of it.

Cost-push inflation:  When demand-pull inflation is active, it frequently starts up. Businesses must raise their pricing as a result of rising raw material costs, regardless of market demand.

Built-in inflation: Employees may start requesting pay increases from their employers as demand-pull inflation and cost-push inflation take place. Employers risk experiencing a labor scarcity if they don't keep their pay competitive.

Built-in inflation occurs when a company increases employee wages or salaries while also trying to maintain profit margins by boosting prices.

consumption vs. saving. Do you think these preferences are more influenced by advertisements for products that are consumable to
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Consumption is influenced by advertisements for products that are consumable today and savings from ads that advocate in investing tomorrow.

Explanation:

Both are important to run the circular flow of economy. If a person invests savings on a product, so there should be someone to consume it, this will help in achieving equilibrium point between aggregate demand and aggregate supply.

Increase in one shall result in decrease in other and in both cases either there will be more products to be consumed rather than the actual consumption resulting in surplus if there is excess saving or vice versa .

Pratt Company has old inventory on hand that cost $15,000. Its scrap value is $20,000. The inventory could be sold for $50,000 i
Yuri [45]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>Pratt Company should incur additional manufacturing cost of $15,000, since they stands to gain more.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Note that every company usually place more importance to profit first, and tries to reduce losses. if Pratt Company goes with the option of selling for the scrap value, it's profit amounts to only $5,000 ($20,000-$15,000). However, <em>manufacturing further despite the additional cost gives Pratt Company a profit from the transaction of $35,000 ($50,000-$15,000).</em>

So, profit wise, Pratt should incur additional manufacturing cost of $15,000, since they stands to gain more.
