can someone explain q15 to me?!?!? i dun get what the answers mean i put C and u guys say answer is D. can someone with strong economic knowledge (seems to be everyone but me) explain especially C and D? oh btw me 19/20 where q15 is wrong.

edit: oh seems it has been mentioned already... well more explanation plz!

more edit: as with Toby, i thought both were right... but if i had used my calc to work out TWI, i would've realised a change from 90.9 to 98 was more than "improved marginally", hence making D more correct... (f@*k!!) 20/20 gone!!

 

[Toby]

arrghh i thought i just explained it
well guess not... not good enough skills i guess
there was an improvement in the terms of trade, meaning an increase in export prices relative to import prices (from 90.9 in year 1 to 98.2 in year 2)
this means that few exports would be required to buy the same volume of imports
i.e. D

I've gone thru the paper, and I have to agree with theone123's answers for 20/20

 

[simmic]

well I thought c and d both sounded right but I wan't sure about improving marginally so i just choose (d)

yah!! I forgot what I got 4 question 5, whether b or c but I'm pleased with either a 19 or 20 out of 20

 

[truly-in-bliss]

its so fraustrating when u dont have the paper with ya so u cant compare answers..

.................so you're saying i might have gotten 19 out of 20!?!??!?!?!?!?!!? OMG!!!!!!!!!! IVE NEVER GOTTEN THAT!!! i always get 13 or 14. i managed a 15 once i was so proud

i think u got 17/20, cos i checked the answers with my eco teacher after the test

Originally posted by Toby
umm q11
can someone check that?
you guys seemed to put A
I thought it was B (also checked after the exam)
cuz the RBA has to buy $A through selling its foreign reserves
A was there to trick you
well... at least i hope!!!!

eco teacher said 11 D, i put 11A, i think that's the only thing i got wrong

 

[kt san]
