Answer: above-average profits

Explanation: In the given case, while making the change in the operations the managements anticipated an increase in profit by 125 max. These types of anticipations are done by the managers on the basis of past records or the current existing trends.

Usually under such situations the management tries to take average of the anticipated figures so that expectations of take holders would not get high too much.

Hence the increase of 19% depicts that the profit increased by more than the average level as anticipated by the managers.

Her real income has decrease by  $7,333.33

Explanation:

<em>Real income is the amount of goods and services that a give amount of quantity money can purchase. It is also known as the purchasing power of money.  </em>

To determine if there has been a change in her real income, we will compare her real income 20 years ago to her real income 5 years later. This will be done as follows;

Step 1

Determine her real income 5 years after her last reunion

Real income in current year = (CPI in base year/CPI in current year ) × Nominal income

                     = (80/150)× 80,000

                    =   $42,666.67

Step 2

Determine change in real income

Her real income has decrease by  $7,333.33. This is difference between her real income 5 years ago and now. That is $50,000 -  $42,666.67.

Tis implies she cannot purchase as much as she could 5 years ago because of inflation.

wel

Answer:

The correct answer is: enter the market; exit the market.

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market, there is no restriction on entry and exit of firms. So profits will attract other potential firms to join the market. And when the existing firm incurs losses it will cause them to stop operating and exit the market.  

Because of this, the firms in competitive settings are motivated to produce at a low cost and they come up with new ideas to please customers so that they earn a profit.
