  • Please don’t ask me to do your coursework / assignment e.t.c. (I can usually tell if it is a homework question!)
  • Please don’t ask any maths calculations.
  • The question and answer will be published here so that everyone can see it (including your teacher!)
  • I aim to try and simplify economics; as a rough guide, I would aim at an understanding similar to a good British A Level student.

    • You could mention asset stripping as a potential cost of merger/takeover. Some takeovers are done with motivation to ‘asset strip’ – leaving local community losing a useful business.

  1. Because a check21 is charged and discharged with accounting money (units) and because it is not the indefinite duration requirement such as the savings account!

  2. Which of the two has contributed more to the development of the world use of money or division of labour?

  3. In micro economics, utility function is assumed to be a regular quasi function and also continuous…I have tried surfing the internet but still dont understand wat this means..please explain and simplify it as much as possible

  4. Hi I have been doing a bit of reading around economics purely out of interest; I’m not an economics student. One of the things I have been wondering about is how cash is introduced to the economy. I think I have the corrected understanding that wealth is generated by people providing goods and services i.e. there is not a fixed amount of money in the economy. This would suggest that as time progresses more cash is needed to circulate. So my question is if the bank of England say was to print more cash who would this be given to? How would it it be introduced to the economy? Thanks, Dan
