Answer:

A. the economy is producing at less than its potential output and has some cyclical unemployment.

Explanation:

Increase in government spending will increase domestic income, only if economy is producing at less than its potential output.

Increase in federal government spending raises the level of 'govt expenditure' in Aggregate Demand. This creates 'Excess Demand' (AD > AS). However, if the economy is at full employment level, i.e all the resources are already best efficiently utilised as per their production potential. Then, the economy can't increase its domestic income more than its full employment (full potential) level. So : Increase in government spending in full employment case, wont increase total production/ income/ employment further ; as the economy is already at full employment & can't increase economic activity beyond that.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.      

Explanation:

Total Overhead Cost:

= (Overhead × Number of cases) for all products

= (20 × 350) + (25 × 550) + (17 × 650)

= 31,800

Total Machine Hours:

= Machine hours × Number of cases

= (5 × 350) + (3 × 550) + (4 × 650)

= 6,000

Overhead Rate:

= Total Overhead Cost ÷ Total Machine Hours

= 31,800 ÷ 6,000

= 5.30

Total product cost per case for Product GC:

= Direct Material + Direct Labor + Overhead

= 80 + 30 + (Machine hours × Overhead Rate)

= 80 + 30 + (3 × 5.3)

= 80.00 + 30.00 + 15.90

= $125.90
