The money market equilibrium is defined as_________
Detalhes da Resposta
The money market equilibrium is defined as when the demand and supply of money are equal. In other words, the amount of money people want to hold (demand) is equal to the amount of money available (supply). Think of the money market as a marketplace where people buy and sell money. Just like any other market, when there is high demand for a product, its price (in this case, the interest rate) will increase. When there is low demand, the price (interest rate) will decrease. In the money market, the interest rate is a measure of the cost of borrowing money. If there is a high demand for money, people are willing to pay a higher interest rate to borrow it. This results in an increase in the interest rate. On the other hand, if there is low demand for money, people are not willing to pay a high interest rate, and the interest rate decreases. When the demand and supply of money are equal, the interest rate will be at the level where the quantity of money that people want to hold is equal to the amount of money available. This is the money market equilibrium.

A method of analysis that draws conclusions from data rather than general Principles already known is________
Detalhes da Resposta
Inductive reasoning is a method of analysis that draws conclusions from data rather than general principles already known. In simple terms, inductive reasoning takes specific observations or pieces of evidence and uses them to form a general conclusion or pattern. For example, if you observe that every time it rains, the streets get wet, you can use inductive reasoning to conclude that rain causes the streets to get wet. In contrast, deductive reasoning starts with a general principle or premise and uses it to reach a specific conclusion. For example, if you know that all birds have feathers and you observe a creature with feathers, you can use deductive reasoning to conclude that it's a bird. Inductive reasoning is often used in scientific research, where data is collected and analyzed to form hypotheses or theories that can then be tested through further experimentation.

A rise in the supply of a commodity cause__________
Detalhes da Resposta
When the supply of a commodity increases, it means that there is more of that commodity available in the market than before. This increase in supply causes the market to shift, leading to a change in the equilibrium price and quantity of that commodity. As the supply of the commodity increases, sellers will want to sell more of the commodity, but buyers may not want to buy as much at the higher price. This creates a surplus, where there is more supply than demand, causing the price to decrease. As the price decreases, buyers are more willing to buy the commodity, and sellers may reduce the amount they are willing to sell, until the market reaches a new equilibrium. This new equilibrium will have a lower price and a higher quantity bought and sold than before the increase in supply. Therefore, the correct answer is: a decrease in the equilibrium price and an increase in the equilibrium quantity bought and sold.

A commodity is defined as normal when its demand changes in the same direction as______
Detalhes da Resposta
A commodity is defined as normal when its demand changes in the same direction as income. This means that as income increases, demand for the commodity will also increase, and as income decreases, demand for the commodity will decrease. Normal goods are those goods for which demand increases as income increases, and decreases as income decreases. For example, as people's incomes increase, they may choose to buy more luxury items such as expensive cars, jewelry, or designer clothing, which would be considered normal goods. On the other hand, as people's incomes decrease, they may choose to cut back on these purchases and switch to more budget-friendly options, causing demand for normal goods to decrease.

Detalhes da Resposta
Industrialization is the process of transforming an economy from primarily agriculture and handicrafts to one based on the manufacturing of goods. This process usually involves the development of new technologies, the growth of factories, and an increase in the production of goods. The goal of industrialization is to increase economic growth and improve the standard of living for a society. During industrialization, the production of goods becomes more efficient and large-scale, and people move from rural areas to cities to work in factories. In short, industrialization is the transformation of a society from traditional ways of making things to more modern and efficient methods of production.

Which of the following is not a cause of unemployment_______
Detalhes da Resposta
"Good government planning" is not a cause of unemployment. Unemployment refers to the situation where individuals who are actively seeking employment are unable to find work. The causes of unemployment can be complex and multi-faceted, but typically include factors such as a lack of available jobs, poor education and lack of relevant skills, and corruption. "Good government planning" is not a direct cause of unemployment, but it can have an indirect effect by helping to create a favorable economic environment that supports job growth and job creation. For example, good government planning can help to attract businesses to an area, provide funding for education and training programs, and reduce corruption, all of which can help to reduce unemployment over time.

As indifference curve shows equal level of satisfaction at all points, An isoquant shows equal level of_________
Detalhes da Resposta
An isoquant shows equal level of output. An isoquant is a curve that represents all the possible combinations of inputs (such as labor and capital) that can produce the same level of output for a particular product or service. In other words, it represents all the different ways to produce the same amount of output using different combinations of inputs. So, all points on an isoquant represent the same level of output, and this level of output gives us the same satisfaction or usefulness. As we move along the isoquant, we can produce the same output using different combinations of inputs, but the level of output remains constant. In simple terms, an isoquant is a line that shows the different combinations of inputs that can produce the same level of output.

The last link in the channel of distribution is____________
Detalhes da Resposta
The last link in the channel of distribution is the Consumer. The channel of distribution refers to the path that a product takes from the producer to the final customer. The producer creates the product, and it is then sold to a wholesaler, who sells it to a retailer, and finally, the retailer sells it to the consumer. The consumer is the end user of the product and is the last link in the chain of distribution. In other words, the consumer is the person who ultimately buys the product and uses it for their own purposes. The channel of distribution is important because it helps to ensure that the product reaches the end user in a timely and efficient manner.

Detalhes da Resposta
Economics is a social science concerned with the proper use and allocation of resources for growth. Economics is the study of how society uses its limited resources to satisfy its unlimited wants and needs. It is concerned with how individuals, businesses, and governments make choices about how to use resources to produce goods and services, and how these goods and services are distributed among the members of society. The proper use and allocation of resources are essential for economic growth, which is the increase in the production and consumption of goods and services over time. This growth is achieved through the efficient use of resources to create more goods and services, which can then be distributed to meet the needs of society. Economics helps us to understand how resources are allocated and used in different economies and how these decisions affect the overall well-being of individuals and societies.

Most of the National debts is "dead weight" in the sense that is____
Detalhes da Resposta
Most of the national debt is "dead weight" in the sense that it is not covered by any real asset. This means that the debt is not backed up by any tangible property or valuable resource. Instead, it is simply a financial obligation that the government owes to its creditors, who have loaned the government money. The government must pay back this debt with interest, which can add up over time and become a burden on the economy. This type of debt is sometimes referred to as "dead weight" because it does not contribute to the growth or development of the economy, but instead represents a financial obligation that must be met.

The basic and essential economic problems in a community are related to choice and________
Detalhes da Resposta
The basic and essential economic problems in a community are related to choice and scarcity. Scarcity refers to the limited availability of resources in any given community. These resources can include natural resources, such as land, water, and minerals, as well as human-made resources, such as factories, machines, and tools. Because these resources are limited, there is never enough of them to satisfy everyone's wants and needs. This scarcity means that individuals, businesses, and governments must make choices about how to allocate these resources in the most efficient way possible. This requires making trade-offs and decisions about what goods and services to produce, how to produce them, and who should receive them. , Freedom, and Politics, are not directly related to the basic and essential economic problems of choice and scarcity. Social class, may be related to economic problems, but is not a fundamental concept in economics.
Pergunta 24 Relatório
Let the quantity demanded in units of a particular commodity be represented as Qd = 80 - 2P, find the quantity demanded when P = ₦3.
Detalhes da Resposta
The quantity demanded (Qd) of a commodity is related to its price (P) through the equation Qd = 80 - 2P. So, if we know the price of the commodity, we can use this equation to find the quantity demanded. In this case, the price is given as ₦3. So, we can plug in this value of price into the equation to find the quantity demanded: Qd = 80 - 2P Qd = 80 - 2 * 3 Qd = 80 - 6 Qd = 74 Therefore, the quantity demanded when the price is ₦3 is 74 units.

A contractionary monetary policy is used to control__________
Detalhes da Resposta
A contractionary monetary policy is used to control inflation. Inflation is a sustained increase in the general price level of goods and services in an economy over time. It occurs when there is too much money chasing too few goods, leading to an increase in demand and upward pressure on prices. A contractionary monetary policy is a type of economic policy used by central banks to reduce the money supply and increase the cost of borrowing, with the aim of slowing down the economy and reducing inflationary pressures. This can be achieved through several measures, such as raising interest rates, increasing reserve requirements for banks, and selling government securities in the open market. By reducing the supply of money and making it more expensive to borrow, the central bank aims to reduce spending and investment in the economy, which can help to lower inflation. A contractionary monetary policy is the opposite of an expansionary monetary policy, which is used to stimulate economic growth by increasing the money supply and lowering interest rates.

The oil boom between 1970 - 1980 caused the oil sector to become____________
Detalhes da Resposta
The oil boom between 1970-1980 caused the oil sector to become the main source of government revenue. This is because during this time period, the demand for oil was high and the price of oil was high, which led to an increase in profits for oil companies and the countries that produced oil. As a result, the government received a significant portion of its revenue from the oil sector, which made it the main source of government funding. This allowed the government to fund various projects and initiatives, and also had a significant impact on the economy.

An economy system that uses what is regarded as the "Market mechanism" is called_______
Detalhes da Resposta
Capitalism is an economic system that uses the market mechanism. In a capitalist economy, individuals and businesses own and operate the means of production, and the prices of goods and services are determined by supply and demand in the marketplace. In simple terms, this means that people are free to produce and sell whatever they want, and consumers are free to buy whatever they want, at prices that are determined by the market. This creates an economy that is driven by competition and innovation, and is often associated with growth and prosperity. It is important to note that capitalism can take on different forms, ranging from a more laissez-faire approach with minimal government intervention, to a more regulated form with a larger role for the government in managing the economy.

Detalhes da Resposta
The term "Money at call and short notice" in a bank's assets represents the bank's loans to the money markets. Money at call and short notice refers to loans that the bank has made to other financial institutions or borrowers that can be quickly repaid upon request or on short notice, typically within 24 hours or less. These loans are typically used to finance short-term funding needs, such as meeting daily operational expenses or managing cash flows. The money markets are where short-term borrowing and lending takes place, typically for a period of less than a year. This includes activities such as interbank lending, commercial paper, and repurchase agreements. By providing loans to the money markets, banks are able to earn interest income while also helping to facilitate the flow of funds between borrowers and lenders. In summary, "Money at call and short notice" represents the bank's loans to the money markets, which are a key part of the financial system for short-term borrowing and lending.
Pergunta 33 Relatório
Restrictive monetary policy is designed to curtail aggregate demand and to overcome________
Detalhes da Resposta
Restrictive monetary policy is designed to overcome inflation. Inflation is when the overall price level in an economy is rising, and the value of money is decreasing. The central bank can use restrictive monetary policy to reduce the amount of money in circulation and decrease aggregate demand, which will in turn help to curb inflation. For example, the central bank may increase interest rates, which makes borrowing money more expensive and reduces consumer spending. It may also sell government bonds, which reduces the amount of money available in the banking system. This type of policy is called restrictive because it restricts or slows down the growth of the economy, which helps to control inflation.
Pergunta 34 Relatório
A supply curve slopes upwards from the left to the right indicating__________
Detalhes da Resposta
A supply curve that slopes upwards from left to right indicates a positive slope. This means that as the price of a good or service increases, the quantity supplied by suppliers also increases. In other words, producers are willing to supply more of a good or service at higher prices. To understand why this is the case, think about it from the perspective of a supplier. If the price of a good or service goes up, it becomes more profitable for suppliers to produce and sell that good or service. As a result, suppliers are incentivized to increase their production in order to take advantage of the higher prices and earn more profits. This is why the quantity supplied by suppliers tends to increase as the price of a good or service increases. It's important to note that this explanation applies to the long run. In the short run, supply may be relatively fixed and a supply curve may be upward sloping or even backward sloping, indicating that the quantity supplied doesn't change much in response to changes in price. However, over the long run, suppliers have more time to adjust their production levels and the supply curve typically slopes upward.

The demand for labour is a________
Detalhes da Resposta
The demand for labor is a "derived demand". This means that the demand for labor is not a direct demand for labor itself, but rather it is derived from the demand for goods and services that labor can produce. In other words, businesses hire workers because they need them to produce the goods and services that they sell. For example, if a business sells pizzas, it will need workers to make the pizzas, deliver the pizzas, and serve the customers. The demand for labor in this case is derived from the demand for pizzas. If the demand for pizzas increases, the demand for labor to produce and deliver the pizzas will also increase. Therefore, the demand for labor is closely tied to the demand for the goods and services that labor produces, and it is derived from that demand.

The purchasing power of money depends upon the__________
Detalhes da Resposta
The purchasing power of money depends upon the "price level". Price level refers to the general level of prices for goods and services in an economy. When the price level increases, the purchasing power of money decreases because it can buy fewer goods and services. Conversely, when the price level decreases, the purchasing power of money increases because it can buy more goods and services. For example, if a cup of coffee costs $2 and the price level remains the same, then $10 can buy 5 cups of coffee. However, if the price of coffee increases to $3, then the purchasing power of $10 decreases and can now only buy 3 and 1/3 cups of coffee. So, the purchasing power of money depends on the price level, because the price level determines how much goods and services money can buy.

Effective demand for a commodity is desire for that commodity backed by_______
Detalhes da Resposta
Effective demand for a commodity is the desire or want for that commodity backed by the ability and willingness to pay for it. This means that a person not only wants the commodity, but also has the means to purchase it and is willing to part with their money in exchange for it. For example, if someone wants to buy a new car but does not have the money to pay for it, their desire for the car is not effective demand. Similarly, if someone has the money but is not interested in buying a car, their willingness to pay is not effective demand. Effective demand requires both the desire for the commodity and the ability and willingness to pay for it. It is the combination of these two factors that drives the demand for goods and services in the economy.

Detalhes da Resposta
The main disadvantage of a one-man business is that the proprietor is personally liable for the firm's debts. This means that if the business is unable to pay its debts, the proprietor's personal assets, such as their savings, property, or other valuables, can be used to settle the debt. This can put the proprietor's personal financial stability at risk and may discourage them from taking on certain business ventures or expanding the business.
