What is the money market?
1. The money market is where households, firms, and the government may save and/or invest their money to earn interests.

Who are the three economic actors in the circular flow model?
1. In a circular flow model, the three main economic actors are the households, firms, and the government. Households include the typical individual consumers. Firms include businesses and similar producers in the economy. Finally, the government refers to the whole government system from federal to local level.
How is the national income of an economy determined?
1. The national income of an economy is determined by measuring the total value of the output produced in an economy or the total income earned by the actors in the economy. In a circular flow model, we can see that the value of total output produced should equal the total value of income generated and earned in the economy. This is because every dollar spent by someone in the economy is received by another person in the economy as income.
What is GDP?

a. labor required to produce a nation's GDP.

b. goods and services produced per unit of time.

c. labor required to produce one unit of goods and services.

d. goods and services produced from each unit of labor input.

2. When market conditions in a competitive industry are such that firms cannot cover their total production costs, then

a. the firms will suffer short-run economic losses that will be exactly offset by long-run economic profits.

b. all firms will go out of business since consumers will not pay prices that enable firms to cover their total production costs.

c. some firms will exit the market, causing prices to rise until the remaining firms can cover their total production costs.

d. the firms will suffer long-run economic losses.
