some questions were completely crazy but oh well
airline thing i remember having trouble with but regarding the options....i cant remember what they were but i put B lol.
and the BOP deficit thingy i think was import tarrifs

any1 know the answers to questions:
2 - the utility thing
16 - broad/narrow money question
26 - the curve sloping down and to the left..something to do with rate of change of wages and employment
28 - natural rate of unemployment
29 - an economy has underemployed resources, how an a govt finance watevr to get them used...A was borrowing from central bank, B was borrowing from private sector. i forgot options C and D but im pretty sure it was either A or B

Another question about national income and governemnt spending, the answers were like $25,000 million etc. i put 20 (i think that was B) but i dno if its right =/

2- it was 6 units i guess or option C with total utility 30
16- it was united states
26- reduction in regional unemplyment
29- finance from central bank
the other one yeah it was 20,000 multiplier being 2...
The ariline one was no entry or exit cost
for balance of payments it was direct taxes to reduce demands for import..!!
Hope i was right...

the narrow and board money question---Can someone explain to me how to find the answer
and the national income and government spending . How to get the answer
How about the question about the money supply is fixed and decrease in activity level?
the philip curve one is the answer is increase in unemployment-- C?
supply curve shift to right? Is it increase in productivity?
and lastly the airline is it--- A--- what market loss and left?

the eleasticity one was 2 because the the point was above the point wher MR cuts the axis and so elastic...i gueess the option was D but the answer was for sure 2
