If AC and MC are represented on a graph, the MC curve will cut the AC curve_______
Bayanin Amsa
The MC (marginal cost) curve will cut the AC (average cost) curve at the minimum point on the AC curve. This is because the minimum point on the AC curve represents the lowest average cost of production, and the MC curve intersecting the AC curve at this point indicates that the marginal cost of producing one more unit is equal to the average cost. In other words, at the minimum point on the AC curve, any further increase in production would lead to an increase in the average cost.

Whatever form an economic system may take, choice is essential for members of the community because resources are__________
Bayanin Amsa
Scarce. This means that there is not enough of a certain resource to meet the demand or needs of everyone in the community. As a result, choices have to be made about how to allocate these limited resources among different individuals, groups, or uses. When resources are scarce, it is important to make decisions about their use in the most efficient and effective way possible.

The basic principle underlying location of industry is the tendency for production of a commodity to be located on the basis of______
Bayanin Amsa
The basic principle underlying the location of industry is the tendency for production of a commodity to be located on the basis of "relative costs and benefits." The location of industry is determined by a variety of factors such as access to raw materials, labor supply, transportation, energy, and infrastructure. However, the primary factor is the cost and benefit analysis of each potential location. Industries tend to locate where the benefits of the location outweigh the costs. For example, an industry that requires large quantities of water may locate near a river or lake where water is abundant and cheap. An industry that produces heavy goods may locate near a port or railhead to reduce transportation costs. An industry that produces high-value products may locate near a skilled workforce or a research and development center to take advantage of the availability of talent. In general, industries seek to minimize their costs and maximize their benefits by locating in areas that provide the best combination of factors. This is why certain industries tend to be concentrated in particular regions or countries where the relative costs and benefits of production are most favorable.

Which of the following persons is engaged in "Secondary Production"?
I - a bricklayer
II - an automobile assembly-line worker
III - an accountant
IV - a cinema projectionist
Bayanin Amsa
Secondary production refers to the process of transforming raw materials into finished goods, typically in a factory setting. Out of the four options, only one involves transforming raw materials into finished goods in a factory setting, and that is option II, an automobile assembly-line worker. A bricklayer (option I) works in construction and is not involved in transforming raw materials into finished goods in a factory setting. An accountant (option III) works in the service sector and is not involved in producing goods. A cinema projectionist (option IV) is also not involved in producing goods but rather in providing a service. Therefore, the answer is option II, an automobile assembly-line worker.

If two commodities are unrelated, a change in the price of one will____________
Bayanin Amsa
If two commodities are unrelated, a change in the price of one will have no effect on the quantity demanded of the other. This is because unrelated commodities are not substitutes for each other, so a change in the price of one will not affect the demand for the other. For example, if the price of apples increases, it will not affect the demand for bananas, since apples and bananas are not substitutes for each other. Similarly, if the price of bananas decreases, it will not affect the demand for apples. This is because the demand for each commodity is determined by its own factors, such as income, tastes, and preferences, and not by the price of other unrelated commodities.

The demand for labour is a________
Bayanin Amsa
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.

Bayanin Amsa
In the short-run, a monopoly can make abnormal profit. Abnormal profit is a profit that is higher than the normal profit a company would make in a competitive market. This is because a monopoly has market power, meaning it has control over the price of its product and can set it higher than the market price, leading to higher profits. However, it's important to note that this situation is only temporary and in the long-run, competition and other factors can drive down prices and eliminate the abnormal profit.

Bayanin Amsa
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.

A commodity is defined as normal when its demand changes in the same direction as______
Bayanin Amsa
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.

Bayanin Amsa
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.

Bayanin Amsa
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.

The method obtained by adding all the reward of factors of production in national income is________
Bayanin Amsa
The method of adding up all the rewards of the factors of production in national income is known as the "income approach." The income approach calculates national income by summing up all the income received by individuals and firms in the economy. This includes wages, salaries, interest, rent, and profits earned by the factors of production, such as labor, capital, and land. The idea behind this approach is that the total income generated in an economy is equal to the total amount spent on consumption and investment, and this spending creates the demand for goods and services produced in the economy. This method provides a comprehensive picture of the total income generated in the economy and is useful in understanding the distribution of income among different groups in the economy and the sources of economic growth.

Restrictive monetary policy is designed to curtail aggregate demand and to overcome________
Bayanin Amsa
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.

Bayanin Amsa
An import quota is a permit that allows an importer to bring a certain quantity of foreign goods into a country. It is a government-imposed limit on the quantity of a certain good that can be imported into a country during a specific period of time. The purpose of an import quota is to protect domestic producers and limit the amount of foreign competition in the domestic market. The government sets the quota to regulate the flow of goods into the country and to ensure that domestic producers are not overwhelmed by foreign competition.

Bayanin Amsa
Adam Smith's theory of value stated that the value of a commodity depends on the amount of labour expended on its production. Smith believed that in a market economy, the value of a good or service is determined by the amount of work required to produce it. According to his theory, the more time and effort that goes into making a product, the more valuable it becomes. This idea is known as the "labour theory of value." In simple terms, the value of a product is determined by the effort and time put into making it. The more effort and time required, the more valuable the product is considered to be. This theory is considered to be one of the foundations of classical economics and is still widely studied and discussed today.

If the demand for a commodity is perfectly elastic, the incidence of a tax on that commodity will be, other things being equal, entirely on the_______
Bayanin Amsa
If the demand for a commodity is perfectly elastic, it means that even a small change in price will cause a significant change in the quantity demanded. In other words, consumers are very sensitive to changes in price, and if the price increases, they will simply buy another substitute product that is cheaper. Now, if a tax is imposed on this commodity, it will cause the price of the commodity to increase. Since the demand is perfectly elastic, consumers will not be willing to pay the higher price and will switch to substitute products. As a result, the entire incidence of the tax falls on the seller or producer of the commodity. This is because the higher price caused by the tax will result in a decrease in the quantity demanded, and the producer will have to reduce the price in order to sell the product. Therefore, the producer bears the entire burden of the tax. In summary, if the demand for a commodity is perfectly elastic, the incidence of a tax on that commodity will be entirely on the seller or producer, as consumers are very sensitive to price changes and will switch to substitute products if the price increases.

Bayanin Amsa
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.

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.

Bayanin Amsa
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.

II - changes in labour costs
III - changes in source of supply
IV - changes in levels of taxation
Bayanin Amsa
All of the options listed - I, II, III, and IV - can contribute to changes in supply. Technological advances in an industry can increase the efficiency of production and lower costs, leading to an increase in supply. Changes in labor costs, such as an increase in wages, can make production more expensive, leading to a decrease in supply. Changes in the source of supply, such as a new supplier entering the market or a current supplier becoming unavailable, can also impact supply. Finally, changes in levels of taxation, such as an increase in taxes on production, can make production more expensive and lead to a decrease in supply. Therefore, all four options can impact changes in supply.

Bayanin Amsa
The use of government income and expenditure instrument to regulate the economy is called fiscal policy. Fiscal policy is a tool used by the government to influence the economy by changing the level and composition of government spending and taxation. The main aim of fiscal policy is to achieve macroeconomic objectives, such as controlling inflation, promoting economic growth and stability, and reducing unemployment. When the government increases its spending and/or reduces taxes, it injects more money into the economy, which can increase consumer spending and business investment. This can help to stimulate economic growth, create jobs, and increase aggregate demand. On the other hand, when the government reduces its spending and/or increases taxes, it takes money out of the economy, which can help to cool down an overheating economy and reduce inflation. In summary, fiscal policy involves using government income (taxation) and expenditure (spending) to influence the economy and achieve macroeconomic objectives.

Whether a monopolist is able to increase his revenue by restricting his output depends on the shape of the_________
Bayanin Amsa
The shape of the demand curve determines whether a monopolist is able to increase their revenue by restricting output. A monopolist is the only seller in the market and has some control over the price of the good or service they provide. If the demand for their product is high, they can increase the price, and if they restrict the quantity of the product they supply, the price will go up even more. The demand curve shows the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity of it that consumers are willing and able to buy. If the demand curve is downward sloping, it means that as the price of the good increases, the quantity demanded decreases. This is because consumers will switch to cheaper alternatives when the price of the good goes up. So, if the monopolist restricts their output, the price will go up and they will make more profit as long as the demand curve remains downward sloping. However, if the demand curve becomes perfectly inelastic, meaning that the quantity demanded does not change with the price, then the monopolist will not be able to increase their revenue by restricting output. Therefore, in simple terms, the shape of the demand curve determines whether a monopolist can increase their revenue by restricting output.

In a perfect competition, the market price is determined by_______
Bayanin Amsa
In a perfect competition, the market price is determined by the market supply and demand junctions. This means that the price is set by the intersection of the supply of goods and services offered by producers and the demand for those goods and services by consumers. When there is a high demand for a good or service, the price will go up, and when there is a low demand, the price will go down. This is because producers will raise their prices when there is high demand in order to make more profit, and they will lower their prices when there is low demand to try to sell more goods. On the other hand, consumers will be willing to pay more for a good or service when there is high demand and they will be less willing to pay when there is low demand. The market price is a result of the negotiation between producers and consumers, and it reflects the balance between supply and demand in the market.

Bayanin Amsa
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.
