Question 4
Correct
Mark 1.00 out of 1.00
Pick n Pay, Spar, Checkers and Shoprite
came together to x the price of gas
heaters in July 2022. This was so that
they could keep the price at a level to
ensure that all four stores remained
pro table. On which area of study in
economics does this focus?
a. microeconomics
b. international economics
c. development economics
d. macroeconomics
The four retail stores (Pick n Pay, Spar,
Checkers and Shoprite) coming together
to agree on a price level for gas heaters
is called a cartel. The purpose of a cartel
is to increase the pro tability of rms and
to prevent competitors from entering the
market for certain goods. This scenario
applies to microeconomics because it
deals with the interaction of rms in a
market and the effects of their actions on
prices.
Macroeconomics focuses on the
performance of the economy as a whole
by providing an overall view of the
economic system of a country. This area
of economics focuses on total
production, income, spending, economic
growth, employment and unemployment,
in ation, price levels and the balance of
payments.
International economics focuses on the
nancial ows, exchange rates and
differences in productive resources
between countries. It is also concerned
with the role of institutions affecting
transactions between countries. For
example, international economics looks
at how a multinational company (for
example Vodafone) investing in South
Africa affects employment, technology
and skills transfer.
Development economics focuses on
improving the economic, social and scal
conditions in developing countries. It
also highlights the differences between
developed and developing countries, and
how these differences can be mitigated.
