Which of the following is true? Group of answer choices An excise subsidy has only a substitution effect since the subsidy artificially lowers the price of the subsidized good causing the consumer to increase consumption of the good, but no income effect. An excise subsidy increases consumption of a good by the same quantity as does a cash transfer but at a lower cost to the government. An excise subsidy has an income effect since the subsidy increases the consumer’s income but no substitution effect. An excise subsidy has both an income and a substitution effect which causes the consumption of the subsidized good to rise.

Answer:

An excise subsidy has only a substitution effect since the subsidy artificially lowers the price of the subsidized good causing the consumer to increase consumption of the good, but no income effect.

Explanation:

The above is true due to the fact that the consumption of goods increases. This could have been reduced had it been that, there was never any excise subsidy on those goods.

Describe personal selling. Personal selling is direct communication between a sales representative and one or more prospective buyers in an attempt to influence each other in a purchase situation. Broadly speaking, all businesspeople use personal selling to promote themselves and their ideas. Personal selling offers several advantages over other forms of promotion.
