A country’s terms of trade can be improved by ________?

A. Revaluation of currency
B. Collective bargaining
C. Reducing demand for imported goods
D. Imposing lower export duties

Correct Answer:

Option C – Reducing demand for imported goods

Explanation

A country can purchase more imported goods for every unit of export that it sells when its TOT improves.
