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".

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.

Taxes and government expenditures are instruments of____________
Bayanin Amsa
Taxes and government expenditures are instruments of fiscal policy. Fiscal policy refers to the government's use of its spending and taxation powers to influence the economy. By adjusting the level of taxes and government spending, the government can influence the level of economic activity and control inflation. For example, if the government wants to stimulate economic growth, it may lower taxes and increase government spending. This increases consumer spending and investment, which can boost economic activity. On the other hand, if the government wants to slow down inflation, it may raise taxes and decrease government spending, which can reduce consumer spending and slow down economic growth. In summary, fiscal policy is a crucial tool used by governments to manage their economies and maintain economic stability.

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

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.

Bayanin Amsa
Mortgage banks give loans to investors on a long-term basis to build houses. When people want to buy a home, they may not have enough money to pay for it all at once. In this case, they can apply for a mortgage loan from a bank. A mortgage is a loan that is used to buy a property and is usually paid back over a period of several years. Mortgage banks specialize in giving out loans for the purpose of purchasing property, such as homes or other buildings. The loan is typically secured by the property being purchased, which means that if the borrower cannot repay the loan, the bank can take possession of the property to recoup its losses. Investors who want to build houses can also get mortgage loans from banks. In this case, the loan is used to finance the construction of the property, and the property serves as collateral for the loan. Overall, the primary purpose of mortgage banks is to give long-term loans to investors who want to buy or build houses. By providing this service, mortgage banks help to stimulate the housing market and make it easier for people to achieve their dreams of homeownership.

One of the major forms of migration that tends to create problem in all developing countries is that of___________
Bayanin Amsa
The major form of migration that tends to create problems in developing countries is rural-urban migration. This refers to the movement of people from rural areas to urban areas in search of better economic opportunities and a higher standard of living. There are several reasons why rural-urban migration occurs. In rural areas, there may be limited job opportunities, low wages, and a lack of access to basic services such as healthcare, education, and clean water. In contrast, urban areas offer more job opportunities, higher wages, and better access to services. However, rural-urban migration can create several problems. Firstly, it can lead to overcrowding and strain on urban infrastructure, such as housing, transportation, and public services. This can result in poor living conditions for migrants and contribute to the spread of diseases. Secondly, rural-urban migration can lead to social problems such as crime, poverty, and inequality. Migrants may face discrimination and difficulty integrating into urban communities, which can exacerbate social tensions. Finally, rural-urban migration can have negative impacts on rural areas, as it can result in a loss of skilled workers and a decline in agricultural productivity. This can have serious consequences for food security and rural development. Overall, while rural-urban migration can provide benefits for migrants in terms of economic opportunities and access to services, it can also create significant challenges for both urban and rural areas.

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.

Bayanin Amsa
The type of business finance that entitles the holder to a fixed rate of dividend is called "preferred stock." Preferred stock is a type of investment in a company that gives shareholders a higher priority claim on dividends compared to common stockholders. This means that if the company distributes profits as dividends, the holders of preferred stock will receive their dividend payments first, before common stockholders. In addition to priority dividend payments, preferred stockholders may also have other advantages over common stockholders, such as the ability to vote on certain matters, and a greater degree of safety in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation. The key feature of preferred stock is that it provides a fixed rate of dividend, which is agreed upon at the time of issuance. This means that the company is obligated to pay a certain amount of dividend to preferred stockholders, regardless of how the company performs financially. This can make preferred stock a relatively stable investment option, especially for investors who are seeking a regular income stream.

In the history of economics the concept of division of labour is usually associated With______________-
Bayanin Amsa
The concept of division of labor is usually associated with Adam Smith, a Scottish economist who lived in the 18th century. Smith is known as the father of modern economics and his book "The Wealth of Nations" is considered a landmark in the history of economic thought. Division of labor is the process of breaking down the production of goods or services into smaller tasks, with each worker specializing in a particular task. Smith argued that this specialization allows workers to become more efficient and productive, as they become more skilled at their specific task over time. He famously used the example of a pin factory to illustrate the benefits of division of labor, showing how the productivity of the workers could be increased by breaking down the process of pin-making into smaller, specialized tasks. Smith believed that the division of labor not only increased productivity, but also led to economic growth and prosperity. By allowing each worker to focus on their specific task, and by encouraging trade and exchange between different workers and regions, the economy as a whole could become more efficient and produce more goods and services. This, in turn, would lead to greater wealth and prosperity for society as a whole. Overall, Smith's ideas about the division of labor had a profound impact on the development of modern economics and are still widely studied and discussed today.

The expression of cost in terms of alternative forgone is referred to as ____?
Bayanin Amsa
The expression of cost in terms of alternative forgone is referred to as "Opportunity cost". Opportunity cost is the cost of an alternative that must be forgone in order to pursue a certain action or decision. In other words, it is the value of the next best alternative that you have to give up in order to choose a certain option. For example, if you have $100 and you can either buy a new book or go to a concert, the opportunity cost of buying the book is the value you would have received from going to the concert (and vice versa). If you choose to buy the book, you give up the experience of going to the concert, and if you choose to go to the concert, you give up the value you would have received from the book. Opportunity cost is an important concept in decision making, economics, and business, because it helps us understand the trade-offs that we make when we make choices with limited resources. By considering the opportunity cost of different options, we can make more informed and rational decisions about how to allocate our resources.

The factor of production that has the highest degree of mobility is__________?
Bayanin Amsa
The factor of production that has the highest degree of mobility is labor. Labor refers to the human effort used in the production of goods and services. It includes both physical and mental work, such as the work done by factory workers, managers, doctors, and teachers. Unlike other factors of production, such as land and capital, labor is not fixed and can move from one job or industry to another. Labor mobility is the ease with which workers can move between different jobs or locations. It is influenced by factors such as education, skills, training, and the availability of job opportunities. For example, a person with a degree in computer science can easily move from one technology company to another, and a nurse can work in a hospital or a clinic. The mobility of labor is important for the efficient functioning of the economy because it allows workers to move to industries and locations where their skills are in demand, which increases their productivity and wages. It also helps businesses to find the talent they need to grow and innovate, and it enables regions to adapt to changing economic conditions. Therefore, labor mobility is an important aspect of economic growth and development.

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 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.

The coefficient of the price elasticity of supply is always_____________
Bayanin Amsa
The coefficient of the price elasticity of supply is positive. This means that as the price of a good or service increases, the quantity of it that is supplied will increase as well. Conversely, if the price decreases, the quantity supplied will decrease. The degree to which the quantity supplied responds to changes in price is what the coefficient of the price elasticity of supply measures. A perfectly elastic supply has an elasticity of infinity, meaning that even a small change in price will result in a large change in the quantity supplied. On the other hand, a perfectly inelastic supply has an elasticity of zero, meaning that the quantity supplied does not change in response to price changes.
