Answer:
(a) Compute the return on investment (ROI) for the current year.
Current ROI 8.72%
Explanation:
Sales 3,018,000
- Variable Cost 1,979,808
- fixed cost 594,600
Operating Income 443,592
Operating assets 5,087,200
Return on Investment

ROI = 433,592/5,087,200 = 0.087197 = 8.72%
The correct answer is D. 4
Explanation:
In research, a causal approach is a research method used when the variables the researcher is studying have a cause/effect relationship. This means one of the variables originates the other (cause) or it is the consequence (effect). For example, if the researcher is studying the effects of literacy rate in access to job opportunities, the approach is causal. In this context, to use to approach it is key that the researcher wants to show one variable or factor determines the other through a cause/effect relationship. Thus, this is used when "the researcher must show that one variable determines the values of another variable".
Answer:
$3,200
Explanation:
With 200 jars of salsa and 400 bags of tortilla chips sold in year 2,
Nominal GDP in year 2, is the value of total sales using year 2 prices
Therefore, Nominal GDP = (200 * 5) + (400 * 5)
= 1,000 + 2,000
= $3,000.
Real GDP in year 2 is the value of total sales using the prices of the base year (year 1, in this case)
Therefore, real GDP = (200 * 4) + (400 * 6)
= 800 + 2,400
= $3,200.
