Question

which of the following is a sign of a strong economy?
a. an increase in gdp
b. a shrinking economy
c. an increase in unemployment
d. a decrease in spending power

Explanation:

A strong economy is marked by growth in production, income, and employment. An increase in GDP (Gross Domestic Product) measures the total value of goods and services produced, which directly signals economic expansion. The other options indicate economic weakness: a shrinking economy is contraction, higher unemployment means fewer people are working, and decreased spending power reflects reduced consumer capacity.

Answer:

A. An increase in GDP
