The percentage of the disposable income that is discretionary is equal to 30.82% if the amount left after fixed expenses is $900.
As the amount left after payment of the fixed expenses is $900, this is said to be the discretionary income because discretionary income is equal to the disposable income minus fixed expenses.
Now we can calculate the percentage of disposable income that is discretionary as follows;
percentage of disposable income that is discretionary = (discretionary income ÷ disposable income) × 100
% discretionary income = (900 ÷ 2,920) × 100
% discretionary income = 90,000 ÷ 2,920
% discretionary income = 30.82%
Hence, 30.82% of the disposable income is calculated to be discretionary if the disposable income is $2,920 and the amount left after payment of fixed expenses is $900.

Answer:
At least during the last couple of decades, service firms tend to generate sustained growth while manufacturing firms do not.
Explanation:
The last president that recorded a steady manufacturing growth rate was Bill Clinton.
Service firms are growing steadily and probably will continue to do it. While manufacturing firms have been slowing down, their growth rate (if any) is not very large during the past few years and that tendency has increased with the new trade barriers imposed by our government during the last couple of years.
Another thing that helps the growth of service firms is that when manufacturing firms or agricultural firms grow, they need more services, so service firms will grow even more.

Explanation:
Excise tax is an indirect tax which is not imposed on customers directly. Excise tax is imposed on producers or sellers for goods produced and they in turn transfer the burden of tax on customers in the form of higher prices. That is why, it is called indirect tax.
It is usually imposed on those goods such as liquor and tobacco whose consumption the Government needs to decrease. If excise tax is imposed on restaurant meals, then the restaurant will be able to produce and sell less at the same price it was charging earlier. If the restaurant wishes to sell more, then it will have to charge higher price.
