A

Answer to Question 2

Many emerging markets-rapidly developing economies in Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe-have now moved from being low value-adding commodity producers to sophisticated, competitive producers and exporters of premium products. These include such products as electronics, computers, and aircraft. For example, Brazil is now a leading manufacturer of Embraer commercial aircraft. The Czech Republic excels in producing automobiles. India is a leading supplier of software. Economic development results in increased incomes and living standards. Perhaps the most important measure of economic development is gross national income (GNI) per head.
