NEWS WIRE NORTH KOREA'S ROCKETS DEEPEN FOOD CRISIS North Korea's Rocket Launches Cost $1.3 Billion North Korea's rocket program is costly. In December 2012 North Korea successfully launched a long-range rocket carrying a satellite into space. That feat cost $300 million.

The burden of North Korea's military program is evident in widespread poverty and periodic starvation. Source: News accounts of December 2012 - January 2013. According to the News Wire, what is the opportunity cost of North Korea's rocket program in terms of corn for North Korea's 25 million people? million tons of corn

The economy of a hypothetical country has been stable for two or three years with very low unemployment. Wages have been gradually increasing during this time. Now an aggressive policy of increasing tariffs on foreign goods imported into the country results retaliatory actions from the other countries against the country’s products and services.

The tab;e below shows data for five economies of similar size. Real GDP is measured in billions of dollars. Assume that potential output for each economy is $340 billion. Economy A Economy B Economy C Economy D Economy E Real GDP 300 320 340 360 Rate of Wage Change -1.0% |-0.5% 0% 3.5% 6.0% 380 How is the adjustment asymmetry demonstrated when comparing Economy A to Economy E? A. The output gap is much larger in Economy E, so wages are changing at a faster rate. B. The size of the output gap is the same in Economies A and E, but wages are rising in A and falling in E. C. The size of the output gap is the same in Economies A and E but wages are falling more slowly in A than they are rising in E. D. The output gap is larger in Economy A, yet wages are changing more slowly. E. There is insufficient data with which to observe the adjustment asymmetry.
