Answer:
d. Constraint
Explanation:
The dependent variable variations are explained as an effect, due to variations in causal independent variables. The dependent variable might be in form of an objective function, as a function of independent variables, which needs to be maximised or minimised. Constraint is a limitation to the objective function maximisation / minimisation.
Given case : Introducing product in new markets (through telemarketers) & conducting research about success of sales efforts - has 'Sales' as the main objective function to be maximised, dependent on independent variable like Telemarketers . Constraint could be any restriction in form of budget , time (six months time mentioned)
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.
