A firm faces diminishing returns when its?

total output diminishes

average output diminishes

marginal output diminishes

marginal revenue diminishes

Bayanin Amsa

A firm faces diminishing returns when its marginal output diminishes. Diminishing returns occur when the addition of one more unit of an input, such as labor or capital, to the production process leads to a smaller increase in output compared to previous additions of the same input. In other words, as more and more units of the input are added, the marginal output of each additional unit begins to decrease, ultimately leading to a point where total output may begin to decrease as well. This phenomenon is commonly observed in short-run production processes and can be caused by a variety of factors such as limited resources or inefficient production techniques.

From the diagram above, a shift in the demand curve from D_oD_o to D₁D₁ implies

a rise in the demand for the commodity

a fluctuation in the demand for the commodity

a fall in the demand for the commodity

an equilibrrium in the demand for the commodity

Bayanin Amsa

A shift in the demand curve from DoDo to D1D1 indicates a change in the quantity demanded of a commodity at each and every price level. This shift represents an increase or decrease in demand. When the demand curve shifts to the right, it implies that there is an increase in demand for the commodity, and the quantity demanded will be higher at every price level. Conversely, when the demand curve shifts to the left, it implies a decrease in demand for the commodity, and the quantity demanded will be lower at every price level. Therefore, the correct answer is "a rise in the demand for the commodity."

The main function of the price system is to?

distribute resources equally among competing ends

ensure efficient allocation of resources in the economic system

allocate goods and services equally

minimize cheating

Bayanin Amsa

The main function of the price system is to ensure efficient allocation of resources in the economic system. Prices act as signals to buyers and sellers about the relative scarcity or abundance of goods and services. When the demand for a product increases, the price goes up, signaling suppliers to produce more to meet the increased demand. When the supply of a product increases, the price goes down, signaling buyers to purchase more of the product. This mechanism ensures that resources are allocated to where they are most needed or valued, and that production is focused on meeting the most urgent needs and wants of consumers. By allocating resources efficiently, the price system helps to maximize social welfare and economic growth.

A public liability company is different from a private limited company because it can sell shares in the stock exchange. This means that the public liability company is publicly traded and its shares can be bought and sold by the general public. In contrast, a private limited company cannot sell shares to the public and is typically owned by a small group of shareholders. The other options mentioned in the question are characteristics that both types of companies share, such as being registered with the registrar of companies, being a legal entity, and being able to raise capital by way of loans.

It is impossible to satisfy all human wants because the available resources are limited. Human wants are unlimited and keep increasing, but resources like land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship that are used to produce goods and services are finite. As a result, people have to make choices about what they want to consume based on their level of income and the availability of resources. This is known as the problem of scarcity, and it means that people cannot have everything they want, leading to the need to make choices and trade-offs.

Devaluation is effective when?

demand for exports is price elastic

Bayanin Amsa

Devaluation is effective when the demand for exports is price elastic. This means that a decrease in the price of the country's currency will lead to a significant increase in the quantity of exports demanded. In this situation, the country's exports become cheaper relative to other countries, making them more attractive to foreign buyers, which can increase export revenue and improve the country's balance of trade. However, devaluation can also lead to an increase in the price of imports, which can cause inflation and negatively impact the domestic economy.

In the theory of production and cost, a firm aims to minimize its average total cost to maximize its profits. The average total cost is the total cost per unit of output. When the marginal cost curve cuts the average total cost curve at its lowest point, the firm achieves the lowest possible average cost per unit of output. This point is also known as the point of minimum efficient scale. Therefore, the correct answer is the "lowest point".

Bayanin Amsa

The availability of inputs and market is one of the most important factors that should be considered in the location of an industry. This means that the industry should be located in an area where there is easy access to raw materials needed for production, as well as a ready market to sell the finished products. If inputs are not easily available, the cost of production will increase due to transportation costs, leading to higher prices of the final product. Similarly, without a ready market, the industry will have a hard time selling its products, which could lead to low profits or even losses. Therefore, the location of an industry should be chosen with the availability of inputs and market in mind to ensure the success and profitability of the industry.

an increase in the price of the commodity will raise the total revenue of the producer

an increase in price leaves the total revenue unchanged

a decrease in price leaves the total revenue constant

Bayanin Amsa

If the price elasticity of demand for a certain commodity is less than unity, then an increase in the price of the commodity will raise the total revenue of the producer. This means that the percentage increase in the price of the commodity will lead to a proportionately smaller decrease in the quantity demanded. As a result, the total revenue earned by the supplier will increase as the price increases. Conversely, if the price elasticity of demand is greater than unity, then an increase in the price of the commodity will lead to a decrease in total revenue, since the percentage decrease in quantity demanded will be proportionately larger than the percentage increase in price.

Comparative advantage implies that a country will specialize in producing the commodity?

with the highest opprotunity cost

for which output per worker is the same with those of other countries

Bayanin Amsa

Comparative advantage implies that a country will specialize in producing the commodity with the lowest opportunity cost. Opportunity cost is the cost of an alternative that must be forgone in order to pursue a certain action. In the case of trade, countries specialize in producing the good or service for which they have a lower opportunity cost, meaning the cost of producing that good or service is lower compared to other countries. Therefore, a country will produce and export the good or service for which it has a comparative advantage, and import the goods or services for which it has a comparative disadvantage, thereby maximizing its economic welfare.

Bayanin Amsa

If the government fixed the price of a commodity below the equilibrium price, i.e., N110.00 < N120.00, then the quantity supplied by producers will be smaller than the equilibrium quantity because the producers will be unwilling to produce and supply the commodity at a price lower than what they would get in the equilibrium. Therefore, the correct option is "smaller than the equilibrium supply".

Labour must be paid a wage rate equal to the marginal revenue product of labour in the enterprise. This means that the wage rate should be equal to the additional revenue generated by the last unit of labour hired. If the wage rate is lower than the marginal revenue product of labour, the enterprise can increase profits by hiring more labour. On the other hand, if the wage rate is higher than the marginal revenue product of labour, the enterprise can increase profits by reducing the amount of labour employed. Therefore, paying a wage rate equal to the marginal revenue product of labour ensures that the enterprise is able to maximize profits while also compensating labour fairly for their contribution to the production process.

Other measures like gross national product and net national income do not give a clear picture of how the income is distributed among the population, hence, per capita income is considered as a better index for international comparison of standards of living.

Bayanin Amsa

The most popularly adopted industrialization strategy in West Africa is import substitution. This strategy aims to produce domestically what would have been imported in order to reduce dependence on foreign goods and increase domestic production. This is achieved by imposing tariffs and other trade barriers on imported goods, making them more expensive than domestic goods, and thereby encouraging local production. The aim is to develop domestic industries that can compete globally by first satisfying local demand.

Which of the following can be considered as being outside the objectives of public finance?

The allocation of resources to various sectors of the economy

The objective of even distribution of income and wealth

The achievement of economic stability

The deregulation of the economy

Bayanin Amsa

The deregulation of the economy can be considered as being outside the objectives of public finance. Public finance deals with the role of government in the economy, particularly in the areas of revenue generation, resource allocation, and expenditure management. The allocation of resources to various sectors of the economy, the objective of even distribution of income and wealth, and the achievement of economic stability are all within the objectives of public finance. However, deregulation is a policy that seeks to reduce the role of government in economic activities by removing regulations and restrictions. While it may have some economic benefits, it is not a primary objective of public finance.
