Answer:
These are the options for the question:
market-based
communist
command
laissez-faire
mixed
And this is the correct answer:
mixed
Explanation:
A mixed economy is an economy that either:
- Mixes state intervention with a free-market economy.
- Has some sectors of the economy run in market-based style, and other sectors in a planned-style.
- Has coexistence of public enterprises and private enterprises.
In the question, we have an example of a mixed economy because in the energy sector (a crucial sector in any economy), there is one public company competing against private companies.
The economy becomes even more mixed when the government lowers the tax rates of the private companies, so that both the public firm and the private firms compete under the same conditions.
Answer:
Unitary cost= $56
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable manufacturing overhead $15
Direct materials $13
Direct labor $17
Fixed manufacturing overhead $12
Fixed marketing and administrative $11
Under absorption costing, the fixed overhead is allocated to the product cost:
Unitary cost= direct material + direct labor + variable overhead + fixed overhead
Unitary cost= 13 + 17 + 15 + 11= $56
Back in 2015, McDonald’s was struggling. In Europe, sales were down 1.4% across the previous 6 years; 3.3% down in the US and almost 10% down across Africa and the Middle East. There were a myriad of challenges to overcome. Rising expectations of customer experience, new standards of convenience, weak in-store technology, a sprawling menu, a PR-bruised brand and questionable ingredients to name but a few.
McDonald’s are the original fast-food innovators; creating a level of standardisation that is quite frankly, remarkable. Buy a Big Mac in Beijing and it’ll taste the same as in Stratford-Upon Avon.
So when you’ve optimised product delivery, supply chain and flavour experience to such an incredible degree — how do you increase bottom line growth? It’s not going to come from making the Big Mac cheaper to produce — you’ve already turned those stones over (multiple times).
The answer of course, is to drive purchase frequency and increase margins through new products.
Numerous studies have shown that no matter what options are available, people tend to stick with the default options and choices they’ve made habitually. This is even more true when someone faces a broad selection of choices. We try to mitigate the risk of buyers remorse by sticking with the choices we know are ‘safe’.
McDonald’s has a uniquely pervasive presence in modern life with many of us having developed a pattern of ordering behaviour over the course of our lives (from Happy Meals to hangover cures). This creates a unique, and less cited, challenge for McDonald’s’ reinvention: how do you break people out of the default buying behaviours they’ve developed over decades?
In its simplest sense, the new format is designed to improve customer experience, which will in turn drive frequency and a shift in buying behaviour (for some) towards higher margin items. The most important shift in buying patterns is to drive reappraisal of the Signature range to make sure they maximise potential spend from those customers who can afford, and want, a more premium experience.

Answer:
A. Realtors
Explanation:
A realtor is a professional who helps clients buy and sell properties. Realtors are registered by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and licensed to practice by their local authorities.
Realtors work for real estate companies. They may be real estate agents, salespeople, residential and commercial real estate brokers, property managers, or appraisers. Since they are recognized by law, and their work revolves around properties, realtors stand in a better position to assist someone buying a house.
