The purchasing power of each dollar can be compared over time by accounting for changes in the price level. 2_______. 3_______. The value of a 1986 dollar is therefore 100/328, or about 0.30 measured in 1967 dollars. 4_______.
The higher the price level is, the fewer goods and services can be purchased with each dollar, so the less each dollar is worth
To measure the purchasing power of the dollar in a particular year, first compute the price index for that year, then divide 100 by that price index
For example, the consumer price index for 1986 was 328, using 1967 as the base year
Thus, a 1986 dollar buys less than one-third the goods and services purchased by a dollar in 1967

A situation in which there is “too much money chasing too few goods” is often described as demand-pull inflation. When demand increases faster than industry’s ability to satisfy that demand, prices will increase. During the Vietnam War, for example, government spending for military goods served to increase the purchasing power of many Americans since it was not accompanied by a tax increase. Meanwhile, factories that might have been producing consumer goods turned to the production of goods for use in the war. The result was an increase in the demand for goods and services at the very time that industry’s ability to satisfy that demand was being redirected. Since it was not possible to increase output to satisfy demand, prices rose.
Ответьте на вопрос:
When do prices increase?
They increase when industry’s ability to satisfy demand is being redirected.
They increase when the purchasing power increase.
They increase when the demand for goods and services increase.
They increase when demand increases faster than industry’s ability to satisfy that demand.

A period of rising prices due to an increase in the cost of production is called cost-push inflation. When, for example, labour unions win wage increases greater than the workers’ increases in productivity, management may choose to raise prices to maintain profits. With prices going up, other unions and workers might demand wage increases to keep up with the increased cost of living, and so on, and so on, in an inflationary spiral. Similarly, efforts by producers to increase profits by increasing prices rather than by reducing costs could also trigger an inflationary spiral.
Ответьте на вопрос:
What happens when labour unions win wages increases?
The cost of the production increases.
The prices rise.
The productivity of workers increase.
Management may raise prices to maintain profits.

During periods of inflation the cost of living increases. Therefore it is necessary to earn more just to maintain your present living standard. How much of an increase is necessary? If the cost of living increased by 10 percent in 1991, a person with a $20,000-a-year income in 1990 would have to earn $22,000 ($20,000 + 10 percent) in 1991 just to stay even. Certain groups, such as those living on fixed retirement pensions, cannot increase their incomes enough to offset the effects of inflation. When this happens their standard of living will decline. To protect people on fixed incomes, Social Security benefits are adjusted for the effects of inflation.
Ответьте на вопрос:

During periods of inflation the incomes increase.
During periods of inflation people earn more.

There were good managers, of course, long before anyone ever studied management.
The field of management has drawn on sociology, psychology, economics, and other disciplines, and it is in these areas that the manager can learn from study as well as from experience and by trial and error. He still needs plenty of intelligence, common sense, and business judgement – and even the inspired hunch may still take place. But the knowledge of what others have learned about the various aspects of management will help him use his native abilities more effectively.
Future managers will need more education than those of the past. A knowledge of the humanities will be needed for a balanced viewpoint. Scientific knowledge will be required to distinguish between good and bad expert advice, for the area of management is replete with disagreements between experts.
