The trade and investment relationship between Australia and China demolishes the theory of comparative advantage. According to Adam Smith and Ricardo, it makes sense for a country to focus on the production of goods and services it can do efficiently and purchase goods and services it produces less efficiently from other countries.

The introduction of a free trade regime resulting in Australia-China trading relationship implies that Australian consumers will pay lower prices for imported ...

In the recent decades, significant societal, economic, political and cultural transformations turned sport not just into a socially meaningful phenomenon but rather in an ...

1. Misconceptions Money generation remains central to economic activity. The process of how money is generated / created and destroyed is not, in fact, readily understood and is subject to numerous misconceptions.

In modern era, particularly in a global financial system in which financial transactions ...

As a result, two most common economic ...
