^thisThe highway bypass question reminded me of Radiator Springs so I used that as a stimulus hehe
21a) in that case wasn't that dissimilar to a creative then, for me
probably 95+Sorry guys wt do u think a raw mark of 91 would align to? Was aiming for a state ranking for obviously no hope lol
sweet i think i did that a bit. my school must mark hard or something. wrote 6 pages (1200 words) each in trials of good, stat filled stuff with some alright insight and got 16 and 15. I might buy my raw marks depending on costs, see if that's a correct assumption.Insight as in go beyond just explaining how the economic system works, but give a genuine perspective and thoughtful ideas. Sort of like a "personal response" from english but rooted with fundamental facts/theory/stats/graphs. Like in today's unemployment essay, rather than just list how unemployment occurs and it's direct impacts, some good insight would be to integrate ideas on external stability (higher employment = higher imports = worsening BOGS = worsening CAD, take it further by giving one or two sentences on the issues with a CAD and link it all back to the question at hand). It's really just about going further than the chapters of your textbook and demonstrating every corner of your knowledge with the syllabus and how it all works together
sorry for the essay
Main point of a tariff isn't to get revenue though, it's to protect domestic industries, employment, internal stability etc.Lol mate. Im not going to waste my time arguing with you. A government would not implement a tariff if they were getting no revenue. Simply as that.
You are not alone.Am I the only one who thought this exam was much more difficult than previous years?
I did too especially from 2012 where the short answers were really generic. But everyone on the forum doesn't seem to think soAm I the only one who thought this exam was much more difficult than previous years?

6. C
7. A
8. A
9. C

16. D
17. B
18. D
19. D
20. D
These are 100% the correct answers. Question 20 is D because government revenue will decrease if they increase tariffs. This is because the tariff revenue is equal to the tariff x the quantity of imports. At the equilibrium price level, Imports are zero therefore tariff revenue will be: 10x0=0. Whereas if tariffs were at $5, the government would make revenue of 20x5=100.
Overall the questions this year were not too challenging. Extended response question this year was really straightforward as was short answers. IMO multiple choice will be the major discriminator.
listen to what this cunt has to say guys, he knows his shit, because i know my shit and i can confirm he is right.I put long term unemployment, wouldn't seasonal be the case for manufacturing? At christmas time there is more demand for manufactured goods and so a decline in manufacturing activity would affect seasonal unemployment.
Pretty sure changes in the structure of the economy such as a decline in manufacturing industry will increase long term UE as they find it harder to re enter the labour force due to not keeping up with changes in the economy.

what about what i said in my last post about seasonal? is that wrong?Pretty sure changes in the structure of the economy such as a decline in manufacturing industry will increase long term UE as they find it harder to re enter the labour force due to not keeping up with changes in the economy.

Well i guess its correct to a certain extent but manufacturing industry is such a broad thing to class as being seasonal. Idk was a hard qn. I think you might be right to an extent but as usual in Eco there is a more likely/right answer.what about what i said in my last post about seasonal? is that wrong?
