The term "Money at call and short notice" in a bank's assets represents the bank's loans to______
Antwoorddetails
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.

The average curve and the marginal curve are U-shaped in the short-run and flatter in the long-run due to________
Antwoorddetails
The reason why the average curve and the marginal curve are U-shaped in the short-run and flatter in the long-run is due to economies of scale. Economies of scale refer to the cost advantages that firms experience as they increase their production output. In the short-run, firms are often operating at less than their optimal capacity and therefore may experience diseconomies of scale as they increase output, which leads to higher average costs and a U-shaped average curve. Meanwhile, the marginal cost curve intersects the average cost curve at its minimum point, which is why it is also U-shaped in the short-run. However, in the long-run, firms have more time to adjust their inputs and can increase the scale of their operations. As they do so, they can experience economies of scale, which lead to lower average costs and a flatter average curve. This means that the marginal cost curve intersects the average cost curve at a lower point than in the short-run, making it flatter. Overall, this illustrates how economies of scale can affect a firm's production costs and how this can be reflected in the shape of the average and marginal cost curves.

In a perfect competition, the market price is determined by_______
Antwoorddetails
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.

One of these is not a problem of agriculture___________
Antwoorddetails
"Provision of employment" is not a problem of agriculture. It is actually a benefit of agriculture. Agriculture provides job opportunities for people, from farmers to food processing workers. The other three options listed are actual problems faced by the agriculture industry: - Lack of preservation and storage facilities can lead to food waste and loss of income for farmers. - Land tenure system refers to the rules and regulations governing who can use and own land. In many countries, the land tenure system is not favorable for small farmers and can limit their ability to produce food. - Poor transportation systems can make it difficult for farmers to get their products to market and for consumers to access fresh food.

A retailer is distinguished by the nature of its sales, which is in___________
Antwoorddetails
A retailer is distinguished by the nature of its sales, which is in units. Retailers sell products in small quantities directly to consumers for their personal or household use. They purchase products from wholesalers or manufacturers and sell them to the end-users at a markup. This type of retailing typically involves a physical store where customers can browse and purchase products, but it can also include online retailing. The focus of retailing is on selling individual units of products to the consumer, rather than selling in bulk to other businesses.
Vraag 9 Verslag
The purchasing power of money depends upon the__________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 10 Verslag
A method of analysis that draws conclusions from data rather than general Principles already known is________
Antwoorddetails
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 permit that allows an importer to bring a certain quantity of foreign goods into a country is_________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 13 Verslag
Which of the following is not a cause of unemployment_______
Antwoorddetails
"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.

The determination of wages in a labour market depends on the_______
Antwoorddetails
The determination of wages in a labor market depends on the interaction between the demand for and supply of labor. In simple terms, employers demand labor to produce goods and services, while workers supply their labor to earn wages. The wage rate is then determined by the equilibrium point where the demand for labor meets the supply of labor in the market. When there is a high demand for labor and a low supply, wages tend to increase because employers are competing for a limited number of workers. On the other hand, when there is a low demand for labor and a high supply, wages tend to decrease because there are more workers than jobs available. Other factors such as government policies, economic conditions, and the skills and qualifications of workers can also influence the wage rate, but the main determinant is the interaction between the demand for and supply of labor in the market.

The oil boom between 1970 - 1980 caused the oil sector to become____________
Antwoorddetails
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.

Economics is a social science concerned with the proper use and______
Antwoorddetails
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.

Vraag 23 Verslag
Let capital formation = CF, Production = P, C = consumption. Then CF =_______
Antwoorddetails
Capital formation (CF) is equal to P minus C, where P is production and C is consumption. Capital formation refers to the process of creating new capital goods, such as factories, machines, and infrastructure, which are used to produce goods and services. This process requires investment in new capital goods and is therefore reflected as a reduction in consumption. So, CF = P - C, where P is the total amount of goods and services produced and C is the amount consumed by households, businesses, and government. This equation shows that the amount of new capital being formed is equal to the difference between what is produced and what is consumed. In simpler terms, capital formation is the amount of investment made in the economy to increase its productive capacity and support future economic growth.
Vraag 25 Verslag
The demand for labour is a________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 26 Verslag
The money market equilibrium is defined as_________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 27 Verslag
The basic and essential economic problems in a community are related to choice and________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 28 Verslag
The lands that belong to the community is referred to as__________
Antwoorddetails
The lands that belong to the community as a whole, rather than to individuals, are referred to as "communal land." Communal land is a type of property that is owned and managed collectively by a community, rather than by individual landowners. In many cases, communal land is held by a community as a shared resource that is used for various purposes, such as farming, grazing, or hunting. Communal land can be found in various forms, including indigenous lands, public lands, and lands held in common by small communities. These lands are often governed by customary or traditional rules and practices that have been developed over time by the community members. The use and management of communal land can be beneficial for communities that depend on the land for their livelihoods, as it allows for collective decision-making and sharing of resources. However, it can also present challenges when there are disputes over land use or when outside interests seek to exploit the resources on communal land.

Whether a monopolist is able to increase his revenue by restricting his output depends on the shape of the_________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 32 Verslag
Effective demand for a commodity is desire for that commodity backed by_______
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 33 Verslag
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_______
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 34 Verslag
Industrialization is the process of___________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 35 Verslag
Consider the diagram below which shows a demand curve (d).
Total expenditure on a commodity is represented by the area TUVW. Consumer's surplus is represented by__________
Antwoorddetails
Consumer's surplus is represented by the area above the demand curve and below the market price. In the diagram, this would be the area represented by VWX. Consumer's surplus measures the difference between the amount that consumers are willing to pay for a good and the amount they actually pay. In the diagram, consumers are willing to pay more for the good up to the market price, represented by the height of the demand curve. The area VWX represents the amount by which they are benefiting from the market, as they are paying less than they would be willing to pay. So, the answer to the question is the area VWX represents consumer's surplus.
Vraag 36 Verslag

Antwoorddetails
The term M33 comprises M11 together with deposits on deposit accounts held by banks and discount houses. In economics, M33 refers to a measure of the money supply in an economy, which includes all of the components of M11 (i.e. notes and coins in circulation, and deposits held by banks and building societies), as well as the deposits held by discount houses. Discount houses are financial institutions that specialize in providing short-term loans to other financial institutions, such as banks. Because they hold deposits from these other financial institutions, their deposits are included in measures of the money supply like M33. , banks only, and banks, discount houses, and stock exchanges, are not complete answers because they do not include the role of discount houses in M33. discount houses only, is not a complete answer because it excludes the role of banks in M33. banks and discount houses, is the correct and complete answer.

As indifference curve shows equal level of satisfaction at all points, An isoquant shows equal level of_________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 39 Verslag
If two commodities are unrelated, a change in the price of one will____________
Antwoorddetails
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.
Vraag 40 Verslag
One of these is not a way by which government encourage industrialization?
Antwoorddetails
Low productivity and inefficiency is not a way by which government encourages industrialization. In fact, it is the opposite. Encouraging industrialization means creating a favorable environment for businesses to grow and increase productivity. Low productivity and inefficiency hinder the growth of industries, making it difficult for the government to encourage industrialization. On the other hand, protection of infant industries, establishment of Nigeria Enterprises Promotion Decree, and establishment of higher institutions are ways by which the government can encourage industrialization. Protection of infant industries involves offering support and protection to new and growing businesses to help them establish and grow. The establishment of Nigeria Enterprises Promotion Decree provides support and incentives for local businesses to grow and expand. The establishment of higher institutions provides a well-educated workforce, which is essential for industrial growth and development.
