Ugh, I'm really starting to stress out about the economics exams now. I've had to self-teach the whole A Level in one year and I really don't think my preparation is good enough. I really need an A and it doesn't look like that will be happening now. :(

which paper is this?
check the er, maybe something id written about it
i think its b because firstly its obvious wither a or b , beacuse this is a case of trade creation
see the question
and the cost of producing the cars imported in to country x, which is the cars which country v makes, so their cost would be up now, they have to pay the common tarrif now

I'm not sure but I'd say it can't be B because a lot of the time market economies produce luxuries instead of essential goods. This is because people with higher incomes will be demanding these goods. So, even if people of lower incomes need a particular good to be produced their demand won't be registered by the market since it might not be effective demand.

And maybe something to do with merit goods? I'm not sure.

What I've written is a little confusing so you might not understand what I'm trying to say. Hope it helps you a little anyway.

And if I'm incorrect, please feel free to correct me.

i think wht you hav explained is for option D. this is where all consumers do not have equal say in what should be produced.

ur ryt. see the need of someone could be the provision of the bus but resources will only be allocated to the most profitable use which might be a car (car is a luxury which equals more money) and therefore needs are not satisfied. not sure but hope i made it clearer :p
