 3.4     Discuss goal bound and demand biased as features of the fiscal policy.

         Goal bound

          Central government by means of the budgetary process of consultation
           and persuasion determines economic and social goals (objectives) for
           the country. 
          The budget is used to realise these economic and social goals. 
          The provincial and local governments merely execute the
           approved budget.                                          (Any 2 x 2)            (4)

         Demand biased

          Fiscal policy is the main policy instrument used in demand-side
           policies. 
          The government improves infrastructure to support fiscal policy. 
          However elements of fiscal policy are also used to realise supply-side
           objectives, 
          e.g. when the government uses taxation as an incentive, allows rapid
           depreciation of assets and subsidises human resource development.

 3.5     How can open market transactions be used to smooth out business
         cycles?

         Open market transaction can be used to smooth out business cycles by:

                Reducing or increasing the supply of money by buying or selling
                 government securities and treasury bills in the open market to control
                 money supply. 
                Selling government bonds to banks and other financial institutions. 
                Debiting the bank’s account with the value of the sale and the bank’s
                 balance with the Reserve Bank to reduce its ability to offer credit. 
                Crediting the bank’s account with the amount of the purchase thus
                 leaving the bank with enough money to lend borrowers. 
                Using the policy during recession as a strategy of stimulating the
                 economy. 

ADDITIONAL PART

 How does an increase in injections affect the level of equilibrium in
 national income?

    Increase in injections (in the form of government expenditure, investment
     and export earnings ) will lead to an increase in the equilibrium level of
     national income. 
    Increased injection leads to increased investment, increased demand and
     increased employment  and this process continues, 
    This is known as the Keynesian Multiplier. 
    The multiplier effect refers to an initial spending which gives rise to an even
     greater increase in national income. 
    A change in the autonomous component of aggregate demand will lead to a
     change in the equilibrium output. 
    In other words, the change in output will be even larger than the initial
     change in aggregate demand resulting from further increase in
     injections.                                                         (Max 10)

   trade policy under the following headings:
   o Reasons
   o Advantages
   o Disadvantages                                               (26 marks)

 INTRODUCTION

       Import substitution is the replacement by domestic production of goods
        that were previously imported. 
        (Accept any correct relevant response.)
 
 BODY: MAIN PART

 Reasons

 Trade 

  Developing countries depend on their natural resources as a basis for
   economic growth and development. 
  The demand for such goods , e.g agricultural products is fairly fixed and
   inflexible. 
  Such goods have a low income and price elasticity of demand, which means
   that substantial changes in prices and income level have no effect on the
   demand for them. 

 Diverstification 

  When goods and services that were previously imported are produced
   locally, domestic manufacturing grows and the economy becomes less
   reliant on foreign countries. 
  Developing countries often find import substitution an easy way to diversify
   their economies. 
  A natural starting point is import substitution because there is certainty that
   a domestic market exists for their products. 
  The argument of infant industries is used to justify protection measures. 
  Such industries may have the potential of comparative advantage and when
   given protection, may be able to benefit from larger scales of production and
   become internationally competitive. 

 Balance of payment problems 

  If the deficit on the BOP is too high, a reduction in imports can assist to
   rectify this. 

 Advantages
  Increased employment: more local workers will be employed. 
  This will stimulate the economy and the GDP increases. 
  More choices: Available foreign exchange can be used for other imports, thus
    increasing choices. 
  Because goods are no longer imported but locally produced, they will be
    bought by domestic consumers. 
  Diversification: the domestic economy become more diversified by producing a
    greater variety of goods locally and is less vulnerable to foreign actions and
    conditions,  e.g price increases of foreign goods and financial turbulances
    in the foreign markets. 

 Disadvantages
  Costly and uneconomical projects are established  e.g. Mossgas 
  Technology borrowed from abroad may be unsuitable for local production. 
  Where comparative advantage exists, competitiveness of certain sectors may
    decrease. 
  Import substitution leads to demand for protection  and this demand comes
    from industries that provide inputs to local industries. 
  There is inefficient local production because local producers are shielded from
    foreign competition. 
  Capital and entrepreneurial talent is drawn away from comparative
    advantage.                                                           (Max. 26)

 ADDITIONAL PART

 How successful have South African policies been to redress income
 inequality?
     South Africa uses a progressive income tax system. 
     Those earning higher incomes are taxed at higher rates, and this money is
      used to finance social development. 
     The poor benefit more than the rich. 
     The government also applies wealth taxes, 
     Properties are taxed according to their market values. 
     Low cost housing is exempted from these duties. 
     Transfer duties are paid when properties are bought. 
     Social security payments are given to the vulnerable groups, 
     E.g. old age pensions and unemployment insurance. 
     Limited quantities of free electricity and water are also provided.

      (Accept any negative responses.)                                   (Max. 10)

 CONCLUSION
 Import substitution as an inward-looking strategy can best help in the restrictions of
 imports in order to allow domestic enterprises the opportunity to grow their
 businesses and supply similar products that will grow the economy later. 
