Consider Tralfamadore, a hypothetical country that produces only cakes. In 2017, a cake is priced at $4.00. Complete the first row of the table with the quantity of cakes that can be bought with $900. Hint: In this problem, assume it is not possible to buy a fraction of a cake, and always round down to the nearest whole cake. For example, if your calculations result in 1.5 cakes, the answer should be 1 cake. Year Price of a Cake Cakes Bought with $900 (Dollars) (Quantity) 2017 4.00 2018 Suppose the government of Tralfamadore cannot raise sufficient tax revenue to pay its debts. In order to meet its debt obligations, the government prints money. As a result, the money supply rises by 20% by 2018. Assuming monetary neutrality holds, complete the second row of the table with the new price of a cake and the new quantity of cakes that can be bought with $900 in 2018. The impact of the government's decision to raise revenue by printing…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EDCnhbUpgE Modern logistics! It would be hard to imagine our daily digital lives without them. As consumers, we can shop online every day and any hour of the day. We expect everything to arrive on time – whether clothing, printer spare parts or a set of screws. Online shopping is booming: in 2018, courier, express and parcel services, the so-called CEP sector, delivered around 3.5 billion shipments in Germany alone. And this is an upward trend. But how does all this work so smoothly, safely and on time? After all, we live in turbulent times: digitalization, climate crisis, growing world population and political and economic instability. How does the logistics industry rise to such challenges? For answers to these questions we need to dive deep into the world of modern logistics. Our film takes us into huge, fully connected warehouses, watching as fleets of cargo planes are prepared for take-off at night and accompanying couriers on delivery bikes on…
WHAT IS SEEN AND WHAT IS NOT SEEN In the economic sphere an act, a habit, an institution, a law produces not only one effect, but a series of effects. Of these effects, the first alone is immediate; it appears simultaneously with its cause; it is seen. The other effects emerge only subsequently; they are not seen; we are fortunate if we forsee them. There is only one difference between a bad economist and a good one: the bad economist confines himself to the visible effect; the good economist takes into account both the effect that can be seen and those effects that must be foreseen. Yet this difference is tremendous; for it almost always happens that when the immediate consequence is favorable, the later consequences are disastrous, and vice versa. Whence it follows that the bad economist pursues a small present good that will be followed by a great evil to come, while the good economist pursues a great good to come, at the risk of a small present evil. The same thing, of course, is…
Envision that the territory of South Dakota chooses to put resources into K-12 instruction by taking care of the expense of a Computers for each student. It concludes that it will contribute $15 billion today since it accepts it will result in $22 billion of advantages in 5 years, and an extra $52 billion of every 20 years. Utilizing a rebate pace of 0.05, is the undertaking a Kaldor-Hicks working on one? Should the province of South Dakota seek after the speculation? Do you believe that outcome would change with a rebate pace of 3%? 7%? You don't have to work out these in calculation; simply examine what might almost certainly happen to the end-product.

Are Diamonds Forever? How much would you spend on a diamond engagement ring? If you answered around the national average of $4,000 then you too have fallen victim to one of the most incredible marketing campaigns of all time. A diamond is intrinsically worthless, and against popular belief, they really aren’t that rare. Their resale value is next to nothing. So why are we willing to spend so much on a ring? Well, we can trace that back to the 19th century. Before 1866, diamonds had been rare, but when massive discoveries were found in South Africa, the rock was on the verge of losing its value. Thats when Cecil Rhodes stepped in and founded De Beers Corporation – consolidating the mines and restricting supply, maintaining the fiction that diamonds were scarce and had inherent value. The real change was in 1938, when the company hired N.W. Ayer to increase sales. By tying their product to love, and specifically to a marriage proposal, by the end of the century, over 80% of all brides…
