Suppose, the people in country X consumes good A, good B, and good C. In 2020, 17 units of good A was produced in the country and its price was taka 10 per unit. Similarly, 6 units of good B was produced in the country and its price was taka 10 per unit. Country X does not produce good C and the entire consumption amount (5 units) was imported from country Y for taka 15 per units. Country X also produced 20 units of good D but exported the entire production to country Y for taka 10 per unit. Given the information above, calculate the following: Total consumption expenditure (C) in country X in 2020: Net export (NX) in country X in 2020: The GDP of country X in 2020:

England and Scotland both produce scones and sweaters. Suppose that an English worker can produce 30 scones per hour or 2 sweater per hour. Suppose that a Scottish worker can produce 40 scones per hour or 4 sweaters per hour. Who will produce sweaters? Each week you purchase 4 units of good A, 2 units of good B, and 3 units of good C. In week 1 the prices of the three goods (in A, B, C order) were ($2, $3, $4). In week 2 the prices of the three goods were ($2.05, $2.90, $4.20). The cost of buying the basket of goods in week 1 was $ . The cost of buying the basket of goods in week 2 was $ . The percentage change in the cost of the basket of goods was %. Round to two decimal places.
Suppose the economy initially produces 15,000 gallons of drinking water and 400,000 tons of steel, which is represented by point A. The opportunity cost of producing an additional 5,000 gallons of drinking water (that is, moving production to point B ) is tons of steel. Suppose, instead, that the economy currently produces 336,000 tons of steel and 20,000 gallons of drinking water, which is represented by point B. Now the opportunity cost of producing an additional 5,000 gallons of drinking water (that is, moving to point C ) is tons of steel. Comparing your answers in the two previous paragraphs, you can see that the opportunity cost of 5,000 additional gallons of drinking water at point B is the opportunity
Paul, Noel, and Sandi work in a bakery where they make pies and cakes. In one day, Paul can make 5 pies or 5 cakes or any combination of these two goods that lie on the same line containing these two production points. Noel can make 30 pies or 10 cakes or any combination of these two goods that lie on the same line containing these two production points. Sandi can make 12 pies or 6 cakes or any combination of these two goods that lie on the same line containing these two production points. Assume that the production possibility frontier (PPF) of each person is a straight line. What are the opportunity costs of producing 1 pie in terms of the number of cakes for Paul, Noel, and Sandi? a. The opportunity cost of producing 1 pie for Paul is 1 cake; for Noel is one third of a cake; for Sandi is one half of a cake. b. The opportunity cost of producing 1 pie for Paul is 1 cake; for Noel is three cakes; for Sandi is one half of a cake. c. The opportunity cost of…

An economy consists of three workers: Larry, Moe, and Curly. Each works ten hours a day and can produce two services: mowing lawns and washing cars. In an hour, Larry can either mow one lawn or wash one car; Moe can either mow one lawn or wash two cars; and Curly can either mow two lawns or wash one car. Calculate how much of each service is produced under the following circumstances, which we label A, B, C, and D: All three spend a their time mowing lawns (A) All three spend all their time washing cars (B) All three spend half their time on each activity (C) Larry spends half his time on each activity, while Moe only washes cars and Curly only mows lawns (D) Sketch a production possibilities frontier for points A, B, C, and D and explain why the production possibilities frontier has the shape it does. Are any of the allocations calculated in part (a) inefficient? Explain.
It was reported in the New York Times that the China's State Council has encouraged more spending to "improve transportation links and other infrastructure... ". It was also reported that the China’s State Council will also "step up its spending on vocational training and other educational programs for adults". Suppose that capital goods are on the vertical axis while consumption goods are on the horizontal axis of China's PPF. As a result of enacting the policies, China's PPF will Group of answer choices shift outward. shift inward. rotate outward become flatter.
Suppose that in Zambia, people consume only two goods, peas and beans. Suppose that John, a citizen in that country has an income of ZMW10, the price of beans is 20N per kg and the price of peas is 40N per kg. Suppose that John consumes 30 kg of beans. Assume that he wants to spend all his income, how many kg of peas is he going to consume? Assume that the price of peas falls from 40N to 20N. Assuming that John still consumes 30kg of beans, find the new quantity of peas. After the decrease in the price of peas to 20N, assume that Jonh is just as well off as he was in (a) if he has an income of ZMW7.6. However, with that income and the new price of peas he would have consumed 20 kg of beans. Find the quantity of peas he would have consumed in this case. Find the substitution effect on consumption of peas due to the decrease in the price of peas in (c). Find the income effect on consumption of peas due to the decrease in income in (c).

An economy is based on three sectors, agriculture, manufacturing, and energy. Production of a dollar's worth of agriculture requires inputs of $0.30 from agriculture, $0.30 from manufacturing, and $0.20 from energy. Production of a dollar's worth of manufacturing requires inputs of $0.20 from agriculture, $0.20 from manufacturing, and $0.30 from energy. Production of a dollar's worth of energy requires inputs of $0.20 from agriculture, $0.40 from manufacturing, and $0.40 from energy. Find the output for each sector that is needed to satisfy a final demand of $57 billion for agriculture, $19 billion for manufacturing, and $21 billion for energy.

A Country B has a comparative advantage in producing bananas. B Allowing for international trade, the production of 50 apples and 50 bananas can occur in a global market equilibrium feasible, but not in market equilibria under autarky. C Each country has an absolute advantage. D Allowing for international trade, the production of 50 apples and 50 bananas is feasible, but not under autarky.
