Money wage rates and all other resource prices remain constant. Firms are willing to supply output equal to O $17.5 trillion. $18.0 trillion. $18.5 trillion. None of the above answers is correct.
asap Suppose the economy's production function is Y = AKO.3NO.7. If K=2000, N = 100, and A = 1, then Y=246. If K and N both rise by 20%, and A is unchanged, by how much does Y increase?

Assume an economy with two firms: a coffee beans producer and a coffeeshop. In a given year, a coffee beans producer grows 75,000 tonnes of coffee beans, sells 50,000tonnes of coffee beans to the local coffee shop at $50 per tonne, exports 20,000 tonnes of coffeebeans at $50 per tonne, and stores 5,000 tonnes as inventory. The coffee producer pays $100,000in wages to consumers. The coffee shop produces 1,000,000 cups of coffee and sells all of it todomestic consumers at $4 a coffee. The coffee shop pays consumers $400,000 in wages. Inaddition to the 1,000,000 coffees consumers buy from the local coffee shop, they (consumers)import and consume 300,000 cups of coffee (coffee pods), and they pay $2 per a coffee pod.Calculate gross domestic product using• the product approach,• the expenditure approach, and• the income approach.
