The formation of cartels or monopolies in other to obtain better bargaining or deals from other countries is characteristic of which of the following?
Bayanin Amsa
The formation of cartels or monopolies in order to obtain better bargaining or deals from other countries is characteristic of countries producing the same or identical goods. When multiple countries produce the same or very similar goods, they may face competition from each other in the global marketplace. This competition can lead to lower prices and lower profits for all the countries involved. To avoid this, these countries may form a cartel or monopoly by agreeing to work together to limit production or fix prices. By doing so, they can increase their bargaining power and negotiate better deals with other countries or buyers. For example, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is a cartel made up of oil-producing countries that work together to regulate the supply and price of oil in the global market. By working together, they can maintain higher prices for their oil and negotiate better deals with buyers. Overall, the formation of cartels or monopolies can be a way for countries producing similar goods to gain more control over the market and secure better economic outcomes for themselves.

Given the table, if the total budget of the country to be 100 million naira, what is the ratio of expenditure on manufacturing to agriculture
Bayanin Amsa
Total budget = N100,000,000
Portion of pie chart covered in degree = 360
Expenditure on manufacturing = x/N100,000,000 × 3600 = 360
3600x = 360 × N100,000,000
x = 360×N100,000,000/3600
x=N10,000,000
Therefore, the budget allocated to Manufacturing is N10,000,000
Total budget = N100,000,000
Portion of pie chart covered in degree = 720
Expenditure on Agriculture = x/N100,000,000 × 3600 = 720
3600x = 720 × N100,000,000
x = 720 × N100,000,000/3600
x = N20,000,000
Therefore, the budget allocated to Agriculture is N20,000,000
Ratio of expenditure on Manufacturing to Agriculture;
Ratio = 10,000,000:20,000,000
=1:2

The need to construct a scale of preference is necessitated by____________
Bayanin Amsa
The need to construct a scale of preference is necessitated by scarcity and the need for choice. Resources are limited, but human wants and needs are unlimited. This creates a situation of scarcity, where people must make choices about how to allocate their resources to satisfy their most pressing needs and wants. A scale of preference is a tool that helps individuals to prioritize their wants and needs, so that they can make informed choices about how to allocate their limited resources. For example, imagine you have a limited amount of money to spend on groceries for the week. You have a long list of items you want to buy, but you can't afford to buy them all. By constructing a scale of preference, you can prioritize the items on your list according to how important they are to you. You might decide that buying bread, milk, and vegetables are your top priorities, while buying luxury items like chocolates and wine are lower on your list. This allows you to make the most of your limited resources and satisfy your most pressing needs first. Therefore, the need to construct a scale of preference is necessitated by scarcity and the need for choice, as it helps individuals to allocate their limited resources in a way that best satisfies their wants and needs.

What is the median of the distribution?
Bayanin Amsa
When a group data is involved, cumulative frequency is used. The formula will be: Median=[(N+1)/2]th
For member of odd number items. That is, where N is odd
Median=([N/2]th + [N/2 + 1]th)/2
For member of odd number items. That is, where N is odd
Solution:
From the table, there are 20 members as indicated by the cumulative frequency. Since the members are odd (10) the median age will be ([N/2]th + [N/2 + 1]th)/2
Median=([10/2]th + [10/2 + 1]th)/2
=(5th + 6th)/2
The 5th member is 3 and the 6th member is on 3
Median=(3 + 3)/2
=6/2
Median = 3

Which of the following business organization is allowed to raise capital by sales of shares to more than twenty people?
Bayanin Amsa
The business organization that is allowed to raise capital by sales of shares to more than twenty people is a Public limited liability company (PLC). A Public limited liability company is a type of business organization that is owned by shareholders who own shares of the company. These shares can be bought and sold by the general public, allowing the company to raise capital by selling shares to more than twenty people. In contrast, a Private limited liability company (Ltd) is a type of business organization that is owned by a small group of shareholders who are often family members or close friends. Private limited liability companies are not allowed to sell shares to the general public and are limited to selling shares to a maximum of 20 people. Partnerships and Sole proprietorships are not allowed to issue shares at all, as they are not considered separate legal entities from their owners. Instead, they raise capital by borrowing money from banks, investors or using their own funds.

The economic term used to refer to human wants, desires or needs is known as?
Bayanin Amsa
The economic term used to refer to human wants, desires, or needs is "Ends". In economics, ends refer to the goals or objectives that individuals or society aims to achieve. These are the things that people want or need, such as food, shelter, clothing, entertainment, or education. Ends are considered to be unlimited because there are always new wants or needs that arise as people's tastes and preferences change, as well as advances in technology and innovation. However, the resources to satisfy these ends are limited, which creates a problem of scarcity. To achieve these ends, individuals must use alternative means, or resources, such as labor, capital, or natural resources. Therefore, the correct option is "Ends".

A capital market differs from the money market in that in the former _____?
Bayanin Amsa
A capital market differs from the money market in that in the former, the loans sought are long term, whereas in the money market, the loans sought are short term. A capital market refers to the financial market where companies and governments can raise long-term funds by issuing and selling securities such as stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments. Investors who buy these securities are essentially lending money to the issuing entity for a longer duration, with the expectation of receiving interest payments and eventual repayment of the principal amount. The securities traded in the capital market have longer maturities, typically longer than a year. On the other hand, the money market is a financial market where short-term financial instruments such as treasury bills, commercial paper, and certificates of deposit are traded. The loans in the money market are typically for a duration of less than a year, with the purpose of meeting short-term funding needs. The interest rates on these loans are generally lower than in the capital market, given their short-term nature. In summary, while both markets deal with financial instruments, the primary difference between them is the duration of the loans sought, with the capital market focusing on long-term funding needs and the money market on short-term funding needs.

The basic economic problems of society include___________
Bayanin Amsa
The basic economic problems of society refer to the fundamental challenges that arise from the limited availability of resources and the unlimited wants and needs of individuals and society as a whole. The three main economic problems are scarcity, choice, and opportunity cost. Scarcity refers to the limited availability of resources, such as land, labor, and capital, relative to the unlimited wants and needs of individuals and society. This means that choices must be made about what to produce, how to produce it, and for whom it should be produced. The second economic problem is choice. Because resources are scarce, individuals and societies must make choices about what goods and services to produce and consume. This requires answering questions like "what to produce," "how much to produce," "how to produce it," and "for whom to produce it." These choices have important consequences for the allocation of resources and the distribution of income and wealth. The third economic problem is opportunity cost. This refers to the cost of choosing one option over another, as measured by the value of the best alternative foregone. In other words, every time we make a choice, we give up the opportunity to do something else with those resources. This means that the cost of any choice is not only the direct cost of producing or consuming a good, but also the opportunity cost of not using those resources in some other way. In summary, the basic economic problems of society include scarcity, choice, and opportunity cost. These problems arise from the limited availability of resources relative to the unlimited wants and needs of individuals and society, and require making choices about what to produce, how to produce it, and for whom it should be produced.

Calculate the population density of Nigeria, having a total population of 180 million with a total land area of 923,768 sq km?
Bayanin Amsa
To calculate the population density of Nigeria, we need to divide the total population of Nigeria by its total land area. So, Population density of Nigeria = Total population of Nigeria / Total land area of Nigeria Plugging in the values, we get: Population density of Nigeria = 180,000,000 / 923,768 sq km Solving this equation, we get: Population density of Nigeria = 195 people per sq km (rounded to the nearest whole number) Therefore, is the correct answer. Nigeria has a population density of approximately 195 people per square kilometer, which means that on average, there are 195 people living in every square kilometer of land in Nigeria. This number is relatively high compared to some other countries, but it is important to note that population density varies widely depending on factors such as geography, climate, and economic development.

The establishment of industries in rural areas will help to reduce____________-
Bayanin Amsa
The establishment of industries in rural areas will help to reduce Urban-Rural migration. Urban-Rural migration refers to the movement of people from urban (city) areas to rural (countryside) areas in search of better living conditions, employment opportunities, and a lower cost of living. This migration often leads to overcrowding, strain on urban resources, and an increase in poverty in both urban and rural areas. When industries are established in rural areas, it creates employment opportunities for people living in those areas. This leads to an improvement in the standard of living of the local population, as they can find employment opportunities near their homes and do not need to move to urban areas. As a result, people are less likely to migrate from rural areas to urban areas in search of better opportunities, which helps to reduce Urban-Rural migration. In addition, the establishment of industries in rural areas also leads to an increase in economic activity in those areas, which stimulates local economies and creates new business opportunities. This, in turn, can lead to a reduction in poverty, an improvement in infrastructure and services, and an overall improvement in the quality of life for people living in rural areas.

An upward movement along the same supply curve result in_____________
Bayanin Amsa
An upward movement along the same supply curve results in an increase in quantity supplied. This means that as the price of the good increases, suppliers are willing and able to produce and sell more of the good. This is because suppliers are motivated by profit, and as the price of the good goes up, they can earn more profit per unit sold. As a result, they will be willing to produce and sell more units of the good. It is important to note that the supply curve itself does not shift as a result of an upward movement along the curve, only the quantity supplied changes.

The money paid per hour for work done is_________
Bayanin Amsa
The money paid per hour for work done is called a "wage rate". Wage rate is the amount of money an employee is paid for each hour of work. It's a basic unit of pay that reflects the compensation an employee receives for the time and effort they put into their job. The wage rate can be influenced by various factors, including the employee's experience, qualifications, and the type of work they do. It's important to note that wage rate is different from salary, which is a fixed amount of money paid to an employee for a set period of time, usually annually or monthly. A bonus, on the other hand, is an additional payment made to an employee in recognition of good work or as a reward for achieving a specific goal.

As a factor of production, the reward for land is?
Bayanin Amsa
The reward for land as a factor of production is rent. Rent is the payment made by a tenant or user of land to the owner of the land in exchange for the right to use the land. Land, as a factor of production, refers to the natural resources such as water, air, forests, minerals, and other resources that are used in the production process. Unlike labor and capital, land is considered to have a fixed supply, which means that its availability is limited. Therefore, the price of land is determined by the demand for it, which is influenced by factors such as location, natural resources, and economic activity. In summary, the reward for land is rent, which is the payment made by a tenant or user of land to the owner of the land in exchange for the right to use the land.

Alternatively, during a period of high inflation, the government may reduce its spending and increase taxes to reduce the amount of money in circulation and lower inflation. Fiscal policy can be used to achieve various economic objectives, such as stabilizing the economy, promoting economic growth, and reducing income inequality. It is an essential tool for governments to manage the economy and ensure its stability and growth over the long term.

When elasticity is zero, the demand curve is_____________
Bayanin Amsa
When the elasticity of demand is zero, the demand curve is said to be perfectly inelastic. This means that a change in price will not cause any change in the quantity demanded. In other words, no matter how much the price changes, the quantity demanded will remain the same. For example, if the price of insulin for diabetes treatment were to double, people who depend on it to survive would have no choice but to continue buying the same amount. This is because they cannot reduce their consumption of insulin, and therefore, the demand for insulin is perfectly inelastic. In terms of the demand curve, a perfectly inelastic demand curve is vertical, meaning that it is a straight line perpendicular to the horizontal axis. This is because, as mentioned earlier, the quantity demanded remains constant regardless of the price. So, when graphed, the demand curve will be a straight vertical line.
