    Possible case study short answers?

    With short answers, they usually choose three topics (Exchange rates almost certain), so they can target anywhere at any topic. Last year they did environment and global economy so I doubt those topics will be short answers this year

    Stance of Fiscal Policy?

    Sorry for double post ... but monetary policy would be expansionary. When they expand, interest rates go down and they increase money supply in the STMM

    Stance of Fiscal Policy?

    You need to keep in mind a few things: 1) We are dealing with a dual-economy which sucks 2) The policy is contractionary no matter what the circumstances/implications are (tax revenue is higher than expenditure) 3) Fiscal policy only affects economic growth (thus consumption and investment)...

    Coming from a school of discretion ... just do it LOOL!! Like seriously, a teacher will devote 3 minutes of their lives to read it. As if they will claim something is copied :L

    Labour Markets

    It's a good argument to use, but unless you have a specific economist that would make such claims I probably wouldn't. I would argue that neoliberal economists believe in no government intervention in a free market economy (and that microeconomic reforms are generally for the purpose of having...

    Multiple choice Q

    You have logic in what you say ... but you need to READ THE GRAPH!! Remember: Finance in general mainly refers to the exchange rate (even in external stability), so when looking at a graph, the terms usually used would be 'exchange rate in $US' and 'quantity' HOWEVER: On this graph there is...

    Labour Markets

    I'd say ... 7 perhaps? We ARE a decentralised market, however the safety net and FWA are centralised functions... Just to make life more confusing -.-

    Is anyone good at HSC Economics? can you explain this to me?

    I think everyone needs to keep in mind two things: 1) The example does not outline that the value of imports would exceed imports (It notes deteroriation in CAD and NOT terms of trade!) 2) Note also that it is assumed that the higher the value of wealth of individuals in an economy, more money...

    Is this a good structure for a "Hamlet" generic essay?

    I think a good generic base is to look at the role of Hamlet ... because that is ultimately the core focus. In my cases, I generally go in a similar form to this: 1. Introduction 2. Setting (comparison to related text and a diminishing textual integrity) 3. Role of Hamlet (In terms of the use of...

    What main ideas do we need to be able to use, explain and evaluate for the HSC?

    Well, be sure to note in your head, that: Topic One: Looks at the world as a whole and reinforces that individual economies have effects on other economies (External Factor) Topic Two: Looks at Australia's place in this global economy and where we stand as an economy (External Factor) Topic...
