Well, I HAD these doubts, but cleared em up, all right :D, they gave a breakeven chart, the answer was 50k. The last was D, I remember. There was a question about what is included in the GDP of the country, answer was Exports only. Question about price elasticity, I wrote Price elastic NOT perfect elastic. Which was correct too, having wikipedia'd it. Guess I did good overall than.

sorry to dissappoint you but the question about the GDP was total goverment expenditure,because GDP=consumption+investments+exports+goverment expenditure,and since it was a closed economy so no exports,the only total goverment expenditure left

its exports and imports because in the real world there is no such thing as no exports or import so it has to be B or C.2 answers :o lol
for barriers to trade i chose common regulations
for bangladesh i chose invest in education and purchase new machinery
for immidiate decrease in the working population i chose reduction in the retirement age.
