In a hypothetical world, between last year and this year, the CPI in Mexico rose from 100 to 115 and the CPI in China rose from 90 to 105. Mexico's currency unit, the Peso(MXN), was worth 8.85(MXN) per Canadian dollar last year and worth 6.64(CNY) per Canadian dollar this year. worth 8.8(MXN) per Canadian dollar this year.

Consider the following economy. In year 1, there are 40 identical homes occupied by the residents. Ten out of 40 homes are rented, and the remaining 30 are owner-occupied. The annual rent for each home is K dollars (where K stands for thousand). In the same year, 10 additional homes are built, however, they are not sold or occupied, in the country. The price of a newly constructed home in Year 1 is 50K dollars. In Year 2, there is a total of 50 occupied homes in the country of which 20 is rented and the remaining 30 is owner-occupied. The rent on a rental home decreases by 20% to 0.8K dollars. In year 2, there is no new construction. In year 3, there is a fire that destroys 5 owner-occupied homes so that only 45 homes are occupied. The annual rent increases back to K dollars per home. There is no new construction in Year 3. However, the government puts a big tent to shelter those who lost their homes in fire. In total, the government spends 2K dollars for this emergency housing of 5…

Formula for the relationship between the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar and the price level. The purchasing power of the U.S. dollar is ( directly, inversely ) related to the price level: when the consumer price index (CPI) goes up, the value of the dollar goes (down, up ). Higher prices ( increase, decrease) the dollar’s purchasing power because people need (fewer, more ) dollars to obtain specific quantity of goods and services. Value of the dollar ($V) =

When the pandemic hit in the beginning of 2020, everything came to a halt. In a single month, 17 million Americans lost their job, and the gross domestic product (GDP), which is how economists measure the total value of a country's products and services, declined by US$2.15tn (£1.55tn). Economists were hopeful that across the world government spending and monetary policy would keep the economy from totally collapsing. During the first wave of lockdowns and stay-at-home orders since December 2019, it was clear that industries that relied on in-person customers - like travel and some retail - were going to struggle, while others would more easily adapt to the "new normal". Tech-heavy companies that delivered products or services to people's homes—like Amazon, Netflix, and Shopify—thrived. To improve the impact of the pandemic, most countries adopted an expansionary monetary policy. The change in the real interest rate influenced the goods market. Aggregate demand changed but there was no…
There are two economies: Mexico and the United States. On year 1, the Mexican economy produced $3000 billion dollars worth of goods and services. In that same year the U.S. economy produced $16,000 billion dollars of goods and services. From year 1 to year 2 the Mexican economy grew at 6% and the U.S. economy grew at 2.5%. This means that in year 2 the Mexican economy produced $ than it did in year 1, and that the U.S. economy produced $ and services more than it did in year 1. Fill in the correct numbers in the correct sequence from the choices below. 1.800; 4,000 18.000; 40,000 The answer is different from the other answers provided. 18:40 180; 400 billion more billion in goods
Suppose the price level reflects the number of dollars needed to buy a basket of goods containing one cup of coffee, one donut, and one newspaper. In year one, the basket costs $6.00. In year two, the price of the same basket is $7.00. From year one to year two, there is at an annual rate of . In year one, $12.00 will buy baskets, and in year two, $12.00 will buy baskets. This example illustrates that, as the price level rises, the value of money .
