Suppose that​ Roots' marginal cost of a jacket is a constant ​$100.00 and the total fixed cost at one of its stores is ​$1 comma
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

What is this​ store's average total cost of a jacket sold before the advertising begins and after the advertising begins.

before advertising costs increase:

marginal cost is constant, so we can state that the total variable costs are $100 per jacket

total fixed costs = $1,000 per day / 15 jackets = $66.67 per jacket

average total cost per jacket before increasing advertising expense = $100 + $66.67 =) $166.67

after advertising costs increase:

total variable costs are $100 per jacket

total fixed costs = $2,000 per day / 55 jackets = $36.36 per jacket

average total cost per jacket after increasing advertising expense = $100 + $36.36 =) $136.36

Can you say what happens to the price of a Roots​ jacket, Roots'​ markup, and​ Roots' economy?

Roots is experiencing economies of scale since average total cost per jacket decreased as the total number of jackets sold increased. But in order to sell that new amount of jackets, their price probably decreased. If the price hadn't changed, then the profit maximizing number of jackets sold per day would be close to 30, but it clearly isn't. That means that the company's markup decreased, but the company is now better off since it is maximizing its profits even though its expenses increased and the markup decreased.

Using Taylor's rule, when the equilibrium real federal funds rate is 2 percent, there is no output gap, the actual inflation rat
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

B) 1%

Explanation:

Taylor's rule formula is as follow:

Target rate = Neutral rate + 0.5 x (Expected GDP growth rate - Long-term GDP growth rate) + 0.5 x (Expected Inflation rate - Target inflation rate)

--> Target rate = 2% + 0.5 x (0) + 0.5 x (0 - 2%)

  --> Target rate = 2% - 1% = 1%

Nominal federal funds rate should be 1%

olasank [31]

Since Isamu carefully controls costs by ordering in bulk, limiting labor costs, and renting the additional space in his building to another business, then he is an example of an efficient manager.

An efficient manager refers to a manager that uses limited resources in order to do a particular job in a professional manner.

It should be noted that an efficient manager identifies his or her priorities and develop structures to accomplish the objectives. In this case, Isamu carefully manages the available resources, therefore, he's an <em>efficient manager</em>.
