Answer:
Decrease the money supply from $120 to $100
Explanation:
If the monetary authorities reduces aggregate demand from AD3 to AD2, money supply decreases from $120 to $100. This decrease will cause a decrease in consumer spending. There will be a reduction of price levels and real output.
This is also called contractionary monetary policy and it causes interest rate to be higher there by reducing investments.
Answer:
the total contribution margin is $245,700
Explanation:
The computation of the total contribution margin in the case when the sales volume rise by 40% is shown below:
Since the sales volume is rise so the contribution margin is also rise by 40%
Therefore the total contribution margin would be
= Contribution margin × (1 + increased percentage)
= $175,500 × (1 + 0.40)
= $175,500 × 1.40
= $245,700
Hence, the total contribution margin is $245,700

2. Four deficiencies in Patricia Eklund’s participatory policy for planning and performance evaluation, along with recommendations of how the deficiencies can be corrected:
Deficiencies Recommendations The setting of constraints on fixed expenditures includes uncontrollable fixed costs, thereby mitigating the positive effects of participatory budgeting. Rewards should be based on meeting budget and/or organizational goals or objectives. The arbitrary revision of approved budgets defeats the participatory process. The contingency budget should be separate, over and above each department’s srcinal submission. The division manager holds back a percentage of each budget for discretionary use. Managers should be involved in the revision of budgets. Managers could submit a budget with programs at different levels of funding. Evaluation based on budget performance must be accompanied with intrinsic rewards. Divisional constraints could be at a budget "kick-off meeting;however individual limit of controllable expenses should be set by each manager

Going by the Accrual principle in accounting, revenue is only to be recognized when earned. This means that revenue from services performed in October and revenue from services to be performed in December, will not be part of revenue reported in November.
Revenue to be recorded in November income statement = Billed $3,950 to customers for services performed on account in November + Received $1,050 cash for services performed during November
= 3,950 + 1,050

Explanation:
The correct journal entry is as follows:
Cash Dr $90
Service revenue Dr $560
To Account receivable $650
(Being the cash received is recorded)
Basically we debited the cash for $90 and service revenue for $560 and credited the account receivable for $650 so that the correct posting could be done
The cash difference is
= $650 - $560
= $90
