  • A break down of the legal firm types for different industries:

    • While proprietorships dominant almost all types of production, except for finance, they tend to be most predominant in construction, transportation, trade, and services.

    • Moreover, should you encounter a proprietorship the chances are very good that person will be working in the service industry.

    • Partnerships tend to surface in finance, agriculture, and mining.

    • Corporations constitute about 20% of all firms in the economy. However, they tend to make up relatively larger shares of the manufacturing, trade, and finance industries.

INFLATION CAUSES

Inflation, the persistent increase in the average price level, can be caused by an increase in aggregate demand or a decrease in aggregate supply. This suggests two basics sources, causes, or types of inflation--demand-pull inflation and cost-push inflation. While short-term bouts of inflation (up to several months) can result from anything (determinant) that might cause either increases in aggregate demand or decreases in aggregate supply, long-term inflation (a year or more) is possible ONLY through persistent increases in the money supply. As such, while demand-pull inflation and cost-push inflation are convenient ways to catalog the transmission mechanisms of inflation, the ultimate CAUSE of inflation is money.
