Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The market price is P.

The marginal cost is given at MC.

The subsidy is equal to s.  

When the subsidy is provided to only a single firm, that firms marginal cost will decline. The firm can take advantage of decreased marginal cost by increasing the output level. The firm will produce the output where the price and marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost plus subsidy. At this point, the firm will be having maximum profit.

So, the firm will increase production until

P=MC+S

The graph shows unemployment rates in the United States in recent years.
S_A_V [24]

The correct answer is C. The United States suffered an economic downturn starting in 2009.

Explanation:

The graph shows the percentage of unemployment in the U.S. from 2006 to 2012. In this, you can see the unemployment rate was between 4% and 5% during 2006, 2007 and 2008; however, after this year the rate suddenly increased. Indeed in 2009, the rate was 6% and in 2010 it was 10%, which is evidently higher than in previous years. This situation suggests there was an economic recession or downturn that began in 2009 and continued during the following years, this explains why the number of unemployed people increased as an economical recession usually leads to fewer jobs. Thus, the most accurate statement is "The United States suffered an economic downturn starting in 2009".
