this is all out of dixon pg94, i think itswat ur after and i hope it helps


*constarints on fute eco. growth- in the longer term the cad. acts as a speed limit on eco. growth. higher levels of eco. growth generally involve an increase in imports and a deterioration in the cad. economies with a cad problem are therefore forced to limit growth to the level at which the cad is sustainable, this is known as the bop....

.... because over a period of time, sustaining a high CAD has significant impacts on the aust. economy and on the conduct of eco. policy. economists differ over the extent to which we should be concerned over aust. cad and foreign liabilties, with some arguing that since the gov. is not contibuting to the cad and forign liabilties problems, any external imbalances are simply the result of normal market transactions in the global economy. some argue athat a cad and foreign debt can be benificial because borrowing from overseas can increase investment and dhelp the economy grow faster.

risks associated with high cad
*the growth of foriegn liabilties-lenders maybe reluctant to lend to aust. or invest here

*increase servicing costs- contibute to the debt trap, aust. borrows money to service debt then borrows more to service that debt ect.

*increased volatility for exchange rates- reduced demand for aust $ means depreciation in a$

how could u fail if u didnt know what to do for the essay?.....isnt the essay only worth like 20 -25 marks only?.......
also, next time, just by defining the keyword of the question in the first part of ur essay will at least get u 1 mark.......

Yeah the essay shouldn't be worth that many marks...the short answer questions are generally worth a lot.

As long as you did well in the short answer and m/c section, I'm sure you'll have done fine.

and then there is study. :)

You don't HAVE to use the dixon economics textbooks, you know. THe leading edge one is good enough to get you over the 50% mark easily.

anyway, I find that if you get one of the notes available on this site, you'll get over 50%.

but yeah, economics is a dry and very boring subject. I guess we have to make do. :(

I think some teachers never give 100% because they feel there is always room for improvement.
