Answer:

The correct answer is:

A) monetary policy is very expansionary.

Explanation:

In this case the Taylor Rule states that the Fed must increase rates as the target of the inflation is up the Gross Domestic Product. Therefore, according to the expansionary policy, the central bank employs certain mechanisms in order to look with favor on the economy. The main idea of this strategy is to be able to lower the interest rates and also to increase the aggregate demand.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

33,793   pizzas

Explanation:

The annual break-even sales level for the number of pizzas sold in the location is computed using the break-even sales units formula  below:

break-even sales=fixed costs/contribution margin per pizza

fixed costs=$245,000

contribution margin per pizza=selling price-variable cost

selling price=$12.50

variable cost=selling price*42%

variable cost=$12.50*42%

variable cost=$5.25

contribution margin per pizza=$12.50-$5.25 =$7.25

break-even sales=$245,000/$7.25 = 33,793   pizzas

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

$7,500 was invested in the account that gained 15%, while $14,500 was invested in the account that lost 7%.

Explanation:

Given that Fatuma invests a total of $ 22,000 in two accounts, and the first account earned a rate of return of 15% after a year while the second account suffered a 7% loss in the same time period, and at the end of one year the total amount of money gained was $ 110.00, to determine how much was invested into each account, the following calculation must be performed:

11,000 x 0.15 - 11,000 x 0.07 = 880

5,000 x 0.15 - 17,000 x 0.07 = -440

8,000 x 0.15 - 14,000 x 0.07 = 220

7,000 x 0.15 - 15,000 x 0.07 = 0

7,500 x 0.15 - 14,500 x 0.07 = 110

Therefore, $ 7,500 was invested in the account that gained 15%, while $ 14,500 was invested in the account that lost 7%.
