Hi Sara. Unfortunately 24 hours later I would have forgotten also when your exams are rescheduled you are not allowed access to the internet of communications in any capacity.. human capital unable to be increased sadly.

No way man, so sorry about that, hopefully you got the 4 marker though - ultimate question - shift in supply or demand for the tax?

Decrease VAT, reduce cost for firms so supply to the right
Similar question was asked on 2018 paper 1 question 1d

If that's true, then they should be isolated or have phones taken off them by the school because the questions will be all over the internet. I thought that's what they do

I used it to explain that in the long term unemployment would be expected to rise again as firms would be able to hire less workers due to increase in wages. And used these stats there

Would be effective:
1) would reduce the current levels of consumers in the market through raising awareness
2) Would reduce the number of new consumers entering the market

Wouldn't be effective
1) smokers are not acting rationally as cigarettes are an addictive de-merit good
2) Previous government interventions that have been attempted have failed

my points were so weak and i hadn't a clue what to say lol. i mentioned information failure when targetting teens and said they might end up vaping instead but in a very non-articulate way lol.
