Reasons the US Economy Boomed in the 1920s

Mass Production

Marketing/Advertising

Credit

The growth of easy credit like buying on margin made it easier to buy things in smaller installments

Henry Ford pioneered mass production by introducing assembly lines, unskilled workers, and standardized parts

People kept on spending and borrowing because they were confident about the future

Advertisements on the radio and in newspapers encouraged people to spend

New techniques of production meant that new products could be made much quicker and cheaper than perfore

Reasons the US Economy Boomed in the 1920s

Impact of WWI

Republican Policies

The Republican government of the 1920s did not interfere in business or put any controls on financial institutions

Tariffs were placed on foreign goods making them more expensive than US goods

The government lowered taxes to encourage people to spend more. This helped the economy grow.

The US loaned large amounts of money to the Allied powers during the war. They now had to pay it back with interest.
