Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

The full-employment level of output is $2,000.

The current level of output is $1,900.  

The current aggregate demand is $1,850.  

There is a need to increase the aggregate demand by $150 to reach full employment level.  

The government increases purchasing by $30.  

Increase\ in\ income\ =\ Change\ in\ government\ spending\ \times\ spending\ multiplier

\$ 150\ =\ \$ 30\ \times\ \frac{1}{1-MPC}

\$5 = \frac{1}{1-MPC}

1 - MPC = \frac{1}{5}

MPC = 1 - 0.2

MPC = 0.8

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

-$5,500

Explanation:

The computation of the overall effect on the company net operating income is as follows:

New Variable cost per unit is

= $44 + $11

= $55

Now the new contribution margin per unit is

= $220 - $55

= $165

New unit Monthly sales is

= 7,000 units + 500 units

= 7,500

Now

New total contribution margin :

= 7,500 units × $165

= $1,237,500

And, the Current total contribution margin is

= 7,000 units × $176

= $1,232,000

So, the change would be

= $1,232,000 - $1,237,500

= -$5,500
