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: A. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant).
Explanation:
The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution(MRTS) is calculated as follows:
= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital
= 1 / 3
Marginal product of labor = 1
Marginal product of capital = 3
This means that if one unit of labor is used, it produces 1 unit of output.
If one unit of capital is used however, it produces 3 units of output.
If a firm therefore used one unit of capital and kept labor constant, it could produce 3 units out output.
Answer:
C. Country A equals –$100 million.
Explanation:
Imports from Country B to Country A = $200 million
Imports from Country A to Country B = $100 million
Imports for one country represents exports to another.
Net exports is the difference between exports and import for a country.
Net exports for country A = $100 million - $200 million = - $100 million
Net exports for country B = $200 million - $100 million = $100 million
Right option is C. Country A equals –$100 million. Country's A export is less than it's import.
Answer: 
GDP contribution is $6.
Explanation: GDP refers to the market value of final goods and services produced withing the national territory of a country.
Using the value added method, we can calculate GDP by summing up the value added at each level of production.
Or
Using the expenditure approach, GDP is the market value of the final good sold to the customer.
GDP = Cost of bread to the engineer = $6
