Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 0.25

Investment spending (I) = $600 million

Government purchases increases by $150 million

MPC - Marginal propensity to consume

MPC + MPS = 1

MPC = 1 - 0.25

= 0.75

Government spending multiplier = \frac{1}{1 - MPC}

= \frac{1}{1 - 0.75}

= 4

Increase in Real GDP = Government spending multiplier × Increase in government purchases

= 4 × 150

= $600 million

Create your own WBS is for a project by using the mind-mapping approach. Break at least two level two items down to level four.
bonufazy [111]
Experienced project managers know that many things can go wrong in projects, regardless of how successfully the work is planned and executed. Component or full-project failures, when they do occur, can often be traced to a poorly developed or nonexistent WBS. A poorly constructed WBS can result in adverse project outcomes including ongoing, repeated project re-plans and extensions, unclear work assignments, scope creep or unmanageable, frequently changing scope, budget overrun, missed deadlines, and unusable new products or delivered features.

The WBS is a foundational building block to initiating, planning, executing, and monitoring and controlling processes that are used to manage projects as they are described in the PMBOK® Guide—Third Edition (PMI, 2004). Typical examples of the contribution that the WBS makes to other processes are described and elaborated in the Practice Standard for Work Breakdown Structures–Second Edition (PMI, 2006).

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is a measure of the number of times inventory is sold in a given period of time period such as in a quarter or in a year.

The formula is Cost of goods sold ÷ the average inventory.

Higher inventory is better than lower inventory because the higher the inventory turnover, the better a business is selling goods(inventories) very quickly and that demand for their product exists. While low inventory turnover depicts weaker sales and declining demand for a company's products
