The president is able to set price controls. When this is done however it sets an artificial ceiling on the price of goods. When the price set is too high it causes too many of the product to be produced because people can't afford to buy it. When the price being set it too low it causes shortages. in the market place. One example of this is when back in the 1970's the price of gasoline was set at too low of a price. Long lines formed a gas stations and only those who were patient enough to wait in line actually got the gas the needed.

Pani-rosa [81]

a. He honors the battle in his address using the following words, ''Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war.''

b. In his opinion the soldiers fought for freedom, equality and human rights.

Explanation:

The Gettysburg address was a short speech made by Abraham Lincoln on November 19, 1863 at the official dedication ceremony in Pennsylvania at the site of the battle field after the civil war. It was a declaration of freedom and independence and further cemented the soldiers sacrifice for equality and human rights.

He honored the battles by reiterating that the sacrifice made by the soldiers will not be in vain. This he does by saying that the soldiers themselves whether alive or dead have already consecrated the ground of battle and no further addition or detraction is needed. This meant that the battles itself was proof enough that the nation was ready for independence and justice.

Additionally, he also stated that the soldiers fought for freedom and the government for the people, by the people and of the people. This in other words means that the soldiers fought for democracy, where everyone is equal under the law. That equality and justice is the foundation upon which this newly independent nation has been built.

g100num [7]

Mark Brainliest please

Sommer Inc is considering the new project, and yet we have to calculate under what circumstances the company have to take on the project. In order to assess the project, we need to compute the break-even cost such as the present value of future cash flows and calculate the WACC weighted cost of capital. It measures the weighted cost of equity and the after tax cost of debt. The following information are given: Debt to equity ratio = 0.90 Cost of equity = 13% After-tax cost of debt = 4.8% After-tax cost of savings = $2.7 million Debt to equity ratio = Debt / Equity = 0.90 Therefore, Value of firm = value of debt + value of equity Value of firm = 0.90E + E Value of firm

See the calculation of WACC as attachment

The April 1 inventory = 17000 units

Now calculate the material required for April production: $= [ Materials needed + ending inventory requirements - beginning inventory available ]$ $= [ 68000 + (64000 × 25%) – 17000 ] = 67000 Litres$

Therefore, the budgeted materials needed in units for April = 67000 litres

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, please see complete question below:

Following several years of declining advertising sales, the Greenville Times reorganized its advertising sales force two years ago. Before the reorganization, the sales force was organized geographically, with some sales representatives concentrating on city-center businesses and others, on different outlying regions. The reorganization attempted to increase the sales representatives' knowledge of clients' businesses by having each sales representative deal with only one type of industry or of retailing. After the reorganization, advertising sales increased.

In assessing whether the improvement in advertising sales can properly be attributed to the reorganization, it would be helpful to find out each of the following EXCEPT:

A.Two years ago, what proportion of the Greenville Times' total revenue was generated by advertising sales?

B.Has the circulation of the Greenville Times increased substantially in the last two years?

C.Has there been a substantial turnover in personnel in the advertising sales force over the last two years?

D.Before the reorganization, had sales representatives found it difficult to keep up with relevant developments in all types of businesses to which they are assigned?

E.Has the economy in Greenville and the surrounding regions been growing rapidly over the last two years?

The correct answer is

<em>A.Two years ago, what proportion of the Greenville Times' total revenue was generated by advertising sales? </em>

Explanation:

The proportion of the Total Revenue (TR) generated by advertising sales is of no significance. Our objective is to find out if there was an improvement in advertising sales that can properly be attributed to the reorganization.
