The price elasticity of a demand function measures the reaction of the quantity demanded by consumers after the price modification of a product. According to the law of demand, for normal goods, when the price of the product increases, the quantity demanded decreases, therefore there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity. Elasticity helps to assess the proportion of the modifications in the two variables.

<u>Let's analyse the following three goods:</u>

  1. Gasoline, is a good with an inelastic type of demand curve. When there is a change in the price of gasoline, the quantity demanded by consumers decreases in a lower proportion than the price increase. There are no easily available susbtitutes that consumers could purchase instead of gasoline to cover the same need. <em>The shape of this type of demand curve is represented by the first graph attached.</em>
  2. Cola, is a product with an elastic demand curve. When the price of a certain type/brand of cola drink increases its price, the quantity demanded of that product decreases in a larger proportion than the price increases. Consumers can easily switch and buy from a different cola brand or select a different type of soda drink to satisfy the same need. <em>The shape of this type of demand curve is represented by the second graph attached.</em>
  3. Two vending machines located next to each other provide an example of a perfectly elastic demand curve. If the price of one of the two vending machines increases for the same product, its quantity demanded would be reduced to 0, as all consumers will switch to the other machine which is located only a few centimetres away. <em>The shape of this type of demand curve is represented by the third graph attached.</em>

With which statements would Roosevelt most likely agree?
Ber [7]

<u>The correct answers are the following: </u>

  • Most relief efforts should be at the state and local government levels.
  • A strong executive is needed to lead the country.
  • The banking industry should be more strictly regulated.

During Roosevelt's presidency, the New Deal was implemented in the 1930s decade to combat the harsh situation of the US economy during the years of the Great Depression.

The New Deal was based on Keynesian economics that identified, as the major cause of the Great Depression, the extremely low aggregate demand figures. The solution proposed was to boost demand figures by directing large sums of public money to the creation of job positions for the large unemployed sectors, so that they could start to earn a salary and to demand products again.

Therefore, the Keynesian solution involved goverment interventionism in the economy at all levels. Also more regulations were demanded for the economy, in order to prevent a similar crisis the future, triggered by the private sector (more specifically, by the banking sector) and which had ended up damaging the whole economy.

How did the encomienda system resemble European feudalism?
Leni [432]

In many ways, the encomienda system resembled a feudal system: The Spanish monarchy granted conquistadors, soldiers, and other officials control over a specific number of Indians, and later Africans, as well as the lands on which those Indians lived.
