Define a free-trade zone and explain how one region has used this policy to improve economic growth in the region.

A free-trade zone is by definition “a place where trade is left to happen without tariffs(tax on imports/exports), quotas, or other restrictions”. An example of a free-trade zone is the European Union. There are no tariffs, quotas, or other restrictions placed on trading within the EU countries (they even share a currency). This allows for them to place products at a cheaper price for good quality and still get enough money to grow wealth within the different countries.

after lydia compare her check register to her bank statement, and the ending balances do not seem to match. then, she must make a bank reconciliation by putting the data all together.

to do this, she need to determine the bank ending balance. after, add the deposits in transit then deduct the outstanding checks. moreover, if the actual checkbook balance does not equal this number, check again for transporting errors by subtracting the balances and add the difference to nine. sometimes, a mathematical error can happen but a bank reconciliation is a great tool to resolve the discrepancies.
