This series of videos is tremendous. I wanted to brush up on some basic economics to form an opinion on the 'Bail Out' and this series has been very helpful - thank you very much for posting!
Thank you sir, you teach very well. I was having problem in understanding this concept but you explained it very well 😊 my doubts regarding these theories are cleared and once again thanks sir
I suppose investment decisions are made on a range of criteria - quality of labour, flexibility of labour laws, tax rates, availability of subsidies/soft loans/tax breaks, pay rates, union strength, proximity to raw material source, proximity to market, stability of political system, transportation facilities etc etc. Some developed countries just offer better prospects for investment.
@ShuaibMsH On ur question... If US decided to cut back on spending, consumption demand would drop off big time such as for chinese exporters. Their demand however could be revived if the Chinese started spnding their savings on consumption to buy their own goods. But if the US default, anyone who has saved in US treasuries (the chinese come to mind) would lose their money (approx $12trn of them and rising atm) in order to pây the bill of the US's over-consumption.
I think its because theirs less risk involved, the chances are your moneys safer invested into a proven system rather than a new unreliable system. Its just whether or not your prepared to take the risk or choose the safer option, which most firms probably do, like you said with the france and japan thing.
Hi, Firstly, that is a great video as its both clear and concise. Are they not both interlinked rather than one being favored? Surely with high interest rates the MEC states firms won't invest due to interest eroding the return yet consumer's propensity to save will increase as there is now a larger opportunity cost of not doing so. This will relate to the accelerator theory in that to an extent the PED of the good the firm supplies will not be bought anyway. Which leads to no more investment.
Quick question, the MEC graph illustrated in my AQA Powell Economics text book states that all investments to the left of the equilibrium (where i=r) are worthwhile. This is saying that a higher rate of interest is a more worthwhile investment... to me this does not make sense. Am I missing something? Thanks
I'm super confused.. I was taught that the MEI (Marginal Efficiency of Investment) is dependent on the rate of interest and the MEC is dependent on the rate of return...
Did you mean 'strange'? There is nothing wrong with your exam board, both in terms of syllabus for Economics and, of course, there is no distinction between the exam boards (yours, Edexcel, AQA, OCR etc) in terms of respect for the final A-Level. They are all considered as worthy as each other.
im lucky to find an Alevel Economics teacher on youtube because i'm in my A2 Economics and this is REALLY HELPFUL. THANKS!

It is Marginal Efficiency of Capital
Thank you so much for this lecture.
Stay blessed
Great to see you

Thanks

I'm super confused.. I was taught that the MEI (Marginal Efficiency of Investment) is dependent on the rate of interest and the MEC is dependent on the rate of return...
