Answer and explanation:
a.
the table below shows the impact of dropping beta product
Loss of Contribution Margin if Beta is Dropped (75,000*64) -$4,800,000
Traceable Fixed Manufacturing Overhead (123,000*33) $4,059,000
Incremental Contribution Margin from Additional Alpha Sales (15,000*72)
$1,080,000
Increase in Net Operating Income if Beta is Dropped $339,000
Notes:
Contribution Margin Per Unit (Beta) = 150 (Selling Price) - 15 (Direct Material) - 28 (Direct Labor) - 20 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 23 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $64 per unit
Contribution Margin Per Unit (Alpha) = 195 (Selling Price) - 40 (Direct Material) - 34 (Direct Labor) - 22 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 27 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $72 per unit

Answer:
O B. Raising interest on reserves
Explanation:
The Federal Reserve expects banks to keep a percentage of customer deposits as reserves. The reserves cater to both the normal and unexpected withdrawals. The Federal Reserve (Fed) also uses reserve requirements as a monetary policy tool.
Interest on reserves is one of the monetary policy tools that the Fed uses regularly. The Fed pays interest on any excess reserves held by the banks. Increasing the interest paid on reserves encourages banks to hold more money. Decreases the interest prompts the banks to lend out more. Contractionary monetary policies are measures aimed at decreasing the money supply in the economy. Increasing interest on reserves increases money held in the banking sectors, thereby slowing down money circulation.
Answer:
The productivity of an average person in the top twenty percent is four (4) times that of an average person in the bottom eighty percent.
Explanation:
In questions 3c and 4b, the values of the gross domestic products for the top twenty (20) percent and the bottom eighty (80) percent are $22,800 and $5,700 respectively. Therefore, if we take the ratio of the two values, we have:
$22800/$5700 = 4
The productivity of an average person in the top twenty percent is four (4) times that of an average person in the bottom eighty percent.
Answer:
C. Identify Requirements

Answer:
In equilibrium, each worker is paid his or her value of the marginal product of labor.
Explanation:
Here are the missing option of the question:
- In equilibrium, each worker is paid his or her value of the marginal product of labor.
- Each worker is paid a wage equal to the highest value of the marginal product of labor(i.e., $40)
- Each worker is paid $15.
- We need to know the product price before we can figure out the wage rate.
As per marginal theory of productivity of income distribution, Income of each factor production is equal to its marginal productivity.
Marginal productivity is one additional unit of production by one unit additional unit of factor, which bring changes in total production. Firm hire labor till marginal revenue product of labor is more than wage rate of labor. The point at which Marginal revenue product of labor is equal to wage rate labor is the labor market equilibrium.
