I think I like it because it is technically speaking a science; not a true business.  :-\

I like it becuase I can bluff in the examination and still get an A* :P
Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Guys, some of the question numbers were different based on which variant you did.

On a side note, is it hard to get an A* in Economics as compared to other subjects?

I wouldnt know. But after this exam I will ;D

Yeah I think it must be C.
So if you first draw the (original) demand and supply, and they tell you that the quantity traded is the same as before then draw a line up from the original equilibrium point. The only way this can be the case is if the supply curve moves to the left (falls) and if the demand curve moves to the right (rises). The new equilibrium point will be directly above the original one (meaning quantity traded is the same as before), but the price will rise.
I hope this makes sense?

Logic :P

Basically if supply falls, demand will rise...this will tend to push the price of the commodity higher.

check the attachment...that may help you understand

Its  D  because the TRANSPORT SERVICE is being exported to a foreign company i.e. ZImbabwe will be paying a foreigner to deal with the transport (a service in the tertiary sector) of the cars.

Trade in goods will worsen for obvious reasosns
