Answer:
Y=38.8
Y will increase by 38.8
Y=246+38.8
Y=284.8
Explanation:
Y=A. F(K, L)
Y=A. K^0.3, L^0.7
Then
Y=246
A=1
K=2000
N or L=100
Solutions
200=1(2000^0.3, 100^0.7)
Now the question says both k & N are increased by 0.20
Therefore
Y=1(2400^0.3, 120^0.7)
Y=1(10.3 + 28.5)
Y=38.8
I think this is a trick question. Say, there are 2 pounds of cocoa / 1 gallon of chocolate ice cream. But then the problem only mentions the production of eight gallons of <em>strawberry</em> ice cream, not chocolate ice cream.
However, if they're somehow related (like they are made from the same machine), then you need 16 pounds of cocoa to produce 8 gallons of chocolate ice cream.
Answer: The GDP deflator
Explanation: The GDP(gross domestic product) deflator is a price index that is used to measure the prices of all the goods and services produced within an economy. The cars which are exported by General Motors are produced domestically within the United States of America and exported outside the country.
Any goods produced externally are not considered when determining the GDP deflator.
Answer:
C. the fair distribution of economic benefits
Explanation:
In economics, there is equity in resource distribution if resources are distributed in such a way as to ensure fairness and justice.
In a command economy, in order to ensure justice and fairness, the government is charged with the responsibility of redistributing economic resources. While in a capitalist economy, the price system does the work of income redistribution.
The question of equitable resource distribution can be achieved through pareto optimal allocation of resources, Vilfredo Pareto in his book “Manual of Political Economy”, 1906. A Pareto-optimal allocation of resources is achieved when it got to a point where it is impossible to make anyone better off without making someone else worse off.
