Answer:
B. A strategic action because such a large plant expansion will require a major commitment of resources.
Explanation:
There are two major forms of action in business decision making: strategic and tactical. Strategic action deals with decision that require major planning and investment of resource. Strategic actions have long term implementation and effect and are difficult to reverse.
Tactical actions, on the other hand, are flexible and involves actions taken on short term basis. Tactical actions are majorly bye-product of strategic decision.
On this note, Circus Aircraft`s decision to double its plant capacity over the next two years is a strategic action because such a large plant expansion will require a major commitment of resources. And the action will not easily reversible.
Other options in the question are not totally right.
Answer:
c. There are more unemployed resources.
Explanation:
Equilibrium level of income is the level of income where aggregate supply in the economy is consistent with aggregate demand. that is the level of income planned savings is equal to planned expenditure. the equation can be written as S = I. where S = savings and I = investments
At equilibrium income level, aggregate expenditure is equal to aggregate output. The equilibrium equation can be written as Y = C+I+G+X-M where
Y = national income, I = investment expenditure of the firm, G = government expenditure on goods and services, X = export, M = import.
I would say that all of the following are steps to help you be a good problem solver except B and C. You need to define the problem and then set about creating solutions. For example, if it is becoming too expensive to haul ore out of an open pit because it its too deep so the haulage costs are prohibitive, then a potential solution involves decreasing haulage costs by shortening the haul which can be resolved by extending in pit conveyors and crusher down close to the ore deep within the pit.
