Answer:

D. A Fed sale of bonds to brokers and banks.

Explanation:

The sale of bonds to banks and brokers is a contractionary open market policy. Its objective is to check inflation by slowing down the rate of economic growth. When the Fed offer bonds to the markets at a higher interests rate, banks will prefer to buy the bonds than lending out money to household and firms.

Producers rely on banks to fund their operations. If they cannot obtains loans for production and growth, their output decreases. A decrease in output results in reduced exports.

postnew [5]

Answer:

1. $858,000

2. Chicken = 24,000 units and Fish = 36,000 units

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. The anticipated level of profits for the expected sales volumes is

= Expected sales of chicken × (Selling price per taco - Variable cost per taco) + Expected sales of fish × (Selling price per taco - Variable cost per taco) - total fixed cost

= 200,000 × ($3 - $1.50) + 300,000 × ($4.50 - $2.25) - $117,000

= $300,000 + $675,000 - $117,000

= $858,000

2. The break even volume is

Let we assume the sale units be X

So, total units sold for chicken = 40X

And, for the fish it is = 60X

Sale units of chicken × (Selling price per taco - Variable cost per taco) + Sale units of chicken × (Selling price per taco - Variable cost per taco) = Total Fixed cost

0.40X × (3 – 1.50) + 0.60X × (4.50 – 2.25) = $117,000

0.60X + 1.35X = $117,000

1.95X = $117,000

So, the X is 60,000 units

So for chicken it is 60,000 × 40% = 24,000 units

And for fish it is 60,000 × 60% = 36,000 units

Anettt [7]

Answer:Yes, the Manager made an error.

Explanation:

Increasing the revenue of a firm depends on two factors which are price and effective demand. An increase in price without a fall in demand will increase revenue, an increase in demand without a fall in price will equally increase revenue.

However when manipulating price only in order to increase revenue care must be taken to ensure same or higher level of demand for an increase in price which lead to a fall in demand may boomerang for the firm.

E.g

Year. $ Price. Demand. Revenue$

1. 5. 100. 500

2. 6. 80. 480

The above illustrate an increase in price without a rise or maintaining the same level of demand leads fall in revenue.
