Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

Consumer surplus means the difference between the highest price a consumer is willing to pay and the actual market price of a product

Producer surplus means the difference between the market price and the lowest price a producer is willing to take for his product.

The addition of the two gives total surplus which is also known as economic surplus.

In economics, market price and quantity of a good are obtained when supply and demand curves intersect. The space before the intersection of the two curves is where the consumer is ready to pay higher than the price which suppliers is ready to a given quantity the good. There is therefore surplus for both of them at the market price.

If the demand curve shifts to the right while the supply curve remains constant, the market price will rise and this will lead to increase both consumer and producer surplus increase. By implication, total surplus will rise since it is the addition of both consumer and producer surplus.

Therefore, total surplus will increase if a bad winter in the mainland United States increases demand for tropical vacations, which shifts the demand curve to the right while the supply curve stays constant.

I wish you the best.

<span>Someone may choose to own a car instead of leasing because they may end up needing to drive it farther and longer than the set milage or wanting to own the vehicle outright instead of making lease or rental payments. If you damage the vehicle, it also becomes more expensive because you do not own it entirely. Reporting damage or mile overage to the leasing company results in fees and penalities. </span>

If businesses are producing at capacity, and the nation is experiencing almost full employment (a very low rate of unemployment
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is D) interest rates would be increased  by the government when there is almost full employment in the economy.

Explanation:

When in the economy, business are producing close to productivity and in the nation there is almost full employment , then it can be said that the economy is booming . Which means there is good amount of money supply in the economy and people are spending robustly and that means the demand is high , which ultimately tells that the prices of goods and services are high.

So to cut the prices, government will increase the interest rate which will lead to the increase in cost of borrowing, and that will cause decrease in money supply and demand will ultimately fall, which leads to decrease in prices of goods and services.
