The number of people who are qualified to work and who offer themselves for employment is called____________?
Detalhes da Resposta
The term used to describe the number of people who are qualified to work and who offer themselves for employment is called the "Working Population". The working population refers to individuals who are of working age and are either employed or actively seeking employment. This group of people is considered to be the supply of labor in the economy and is an important factor in determining the overall health and stability of the labor market. It's important to note that the working population can be influenced by various factors such as migration, education levels, and the availability of job opportunities. Understanding the size and composition of the working population can provide valuable insights into the current state of the labor market and can inform decisions related to economic and labor policies.

An upward movement along the same supply curve result in_____________
Detalhes da Resposta
An upward movement along the same supply curve results in an increase in quantity supplied. This means that as the price of the good increases, suppliers are willing and able to produce and sell more of the good. This is because suppliers are motivated by profit, and as the price of the good goes up, they can earn more profit per unit sold. As a result, they will be willing to produce and sell more units of the good. It is important to note that the supply curve itself does not shift as a result of an upward movement along the curve, only the quantity supplied changes.

As a factor of production, the reward for land is?
Detalhes da Resposta
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.

In other to enhance the utility of a particular commodity, it was moved from a place where it has little utility to another area where its utility is higher. This form of utility is referred to as?
Detalhes da Resposta
The form of utility that refers to the enhancement of a commodity's usefulness by moving it from a place where it has little utility to another area where its utility is higher is called "place utility." For example, a bottle of water may have low utility in a store shelf where there is an abundance of water, but it would have a higher utility in a desert where water is scarce. By moving the water bottle from the store shelf to the desert, the place utility of the water bottle is increased. On the other hand, marginal utility refers to the additional satisfaction or benefit that a person derives from consuming an extra unit of a good or service, while form utility refers to the value added to a commodity by transforming it into a more useful form, such as processing raw materials into finished products. Total utility, on the other hand, refers to the overall level of satisfaction or benefit that a person derives from consuming a particular quantity of a good or service.

Calculate the population density of Nigeria, having a total population of 180 million with a total land area of 923,768 sq km?
Detalhes da Resposta
To calculate the population density of Nigeria, we need to divide the total population of Nigeria by its total land area. So, Population density of Nigeria = Total population of Nigeria / Total land area of Nigeria Plugging in the values, we get: Population density of Nigeria = 180,000,000 / 923,768 sq km Solving this equation, we get: Population density of Nigeria = 195 people per sq km (rounded to the nearest whole number) Therefore, is the correct answer. Nigeria has a population density of approximately 195 people per square kilometer, which means that on average, there are 195 people living in every square kilometer of land in Nigeria. This number is relatively high compared to some other countries, but it is important to note that population density varies widely depending on factors such as geography, climate, and economic development.

The type of business finance that entitles the holder to a fixed rate of dividend is______________--
Detalhes da Resposta
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.
Pergunta 16 Relatório
When elasticity is zero, the demand curve is_____________
Detalhes da Resposta
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.

The reward for capital is___________
Detalhes da Resposta
The reward for capital is interest. Capital refers to the money or assets that are used to invest in a business or enterprise. When someone invests their capital into a business, they expect to earn a return on their investment. The return on investment for capital is called interest. Interest is the amount of money paid by the borrower to the lender for the use of their capital. This can be in the form of regular interest payments or a lump sum at the end of the investment period. The interest rate is determined by various factors such as market conditions, inflation, and risk. Therefore, interest is the primary reward for capital.

Mortgage banks give loans to investors on a long term basics to_____________
Detalhes da Resposta
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.

Consider the following statements:
1. Climate and availability of water largely determines the pattern of the population distribution.
2. Density of population helps in getting a better understanding of the spatial distribution of population in relation to land
Which of the statement(s) given above is/are correct
Detalhes da Resposta
Both statements are correct. Climate and availability of water are important factors that can affect where people choose to live. Areas with a favorable climate and a reliable source of water are often more attractive to people, leading to higher population densities in those regions. On the other hand, areas with harsh climates or limited access to water may have lower population densities. Density of population refers to the number of people living in a given area. By understanding the population density in different regions, we can get a better understanding of how densely populated an area is and how the population is distributed over the land. This information is useful in a variety of fields, including urban planning, resource management, and public health.

An economy in which both the public and private sectors contribute to economic growth is a__________?
Detalhes da Resposta
The correct answer is a mixed economy. A mixed economy is an economic system that combines elements of both the public (government) and private sectors. In a mixed economy, the government and private businesses work together to create economic growth and promote social welfare. In a mixed economy, the government is responsible for providing essential services such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure. The private sector, on the other hand, is responsible for creating goods and services that meet the demands of the market. This type of economy allows for the benefits of both capitalism (private enterprise) and socialism (public enterprise) to coexist. It allows the government to regulate and control certain aspects of the economy, while still allowing the private sector to operate and innovate freely. Many modern economies around the world are considered mixed economies, including the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Detalhes da Resposta
The transfer of public shareholding in corporations to private enterprise is called privatization. This means that the ownership and control of a company, which was previously held by the government or the public, is now transferred to a private company or individual. Privatization can take many forms, such as selling shares of a public company to private investors, selling off a state-owned enterprise to a private company, or outsourcing government services to private companies. The goal of privatization is usually to improve efficiency, increase competition, and reduce government spending. In summary, privatization refers to the transfer of ownership and control of public companies to private entities, which is done to improve the performance and efficiency of the organization.

The basic economic problems of society include___________
Detalhes da Resposta
The basic economic problems of society refer to the fundamental challenges that arise from the limited availability of resources and the unlimited wants and needs of individuals and society as a whole. The three main economic problems are scarcity, choice, and opportunity cost. Scarcity refers to the limited availability of resources, such as land, labor, and capital, relative to the unlimited wants and needs of individuals and society. This means that choices must be made about what to produce, how to produce it, and for whom it should be produced. The second economic problem is choice. Because resources are scarce, individuals and societies must make choices about what goods and services to produce and consume. This requires answering questions like "what to produce," "how much to produce," "how to produce it," and "for whom to produce it." These choices have important consequences for the allocation of resources and the distribution of income and wealth. The third economic problem is opportunity cost. This refers to the cost of choosing one option over another, as measured by the value of the best alternative foregone. In other words, every time we make a choice, we give up the opportunity to do something else with those resources. This means that the cost of any choice is not only the direct cost of producing or consuming a good, but also the opportunity cost of not using those resources in some other way. In summary, the basic economic problems of society include scarcity, choice, and opportunity cost. These problems arise from the limited availability of resources relative to the unlimited wants and needs of individuals and society, and require making choices about what to produce, how to produce it, and for whom it should be produced.

The coefficient of the price elasticity of supply is always_____________
Detalhes da Resposta
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.

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

Detalhes da Resposta
The establishment of industries in rural areas will help to reduce Urban-Rural migration. Urban-Rural migration refers to the movement of people from urban (city) areas to rural (countryside) areas in search of better living conditions, employment opportunities, and a lower cost of living. This migration often leads to overcrowding, strain on urban resources, and an increase in poverty in both urban and rural areas. When industries are established in rural areas, it creates employment opportunities for people living in those areas. This leads to an improvement in the standard of living of the local population, as they can find employment opportunities near their homes and do not need to move to urban areas. As a result, people are less likely to migrate from rural areas to urban areas in search of better opportunities, which helps to reduce Urban-Rural migration. In addition, the establishment of industries in rural areas also leads to an increase in economic activity in those areas, which stimulates local economies and creates new business opportunities. This, in turn, can lead to a reduction in poverty, an improvement in infrastructure and services, and an overall improvement in the quality of life for people living in rural areas.

A capital market differs from the money market in that in the former _____?
Detalhes da Resposta
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 money paid per hour for work done is_________
Detalhes da Resposta
The money paid per hour for work done is called a "wage rate". Wage rate is the amount of money an employee is paid for each hour of work. It's a basic unit of pay that reflects the compensation an employee receives for the time and effort they put into their job. The wage rate can be influenced by various factors, including the employee's experience, qualifications, and the type of work they do. It's important to note that wage rate is different from salary, which is a fixed amount of money paid to an employee for a set period of time, usually annually or monthly. A bonus, on the other hand, is an additional payment made to an employee in recognition of good work or as a reward for achieving a specific goal.

The use of income and expenditure instruments or policies to control or regulate the economic activities of a country is known as Fiscal Policy. Fiscal policy involves the use of government spending and taxation to influence the economy's performance. For example, during a recession, the government may increase its spending to stimulate economic growth and create jobs. Alternatively, during a period of high inflation, the government may reduce its spending and increase taxes to reduce the amount of money in circulation and lower inflation. Fiscal policy can be used to achieve various economic objectives, such as stabilizing the economy, promoting economic growth, and reducing income inequality. It is an essential tool for governments to manage the economy and ensure its stability and growth over the long term.

The formation of cartels or monopolies in other to obtain better bargaining or deals from other countries is characteristic of which of the following?
Detalhes da Resposta
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.

Detalhes da Resposta
The study of Economics becomes necessary because of the "scarcity of resources". Economics is the study of how societies use limited resources to satisfy their unlimited wants and needs. Because resources such as land, labor, and capital are limited, and human wants and needs are unlimited, there is always scarcity. Scarcity means that people have to make choices about what goods and services they will produce and consume because they cannot have everything they want. Therefore, the study of economics helps to provide a framework for making decisions about how to allocate scarce resources in the most efficient and effective way possible to maximize benefits to society. In conclusion, the study of economics becomes necessary because of the scarcity of resources, which creates the need to make choices and allocate resources efficiently to satisfy the unlimited wants and needs of society.
