The legislative branch can `` check ‘’ the executive branch by rejecting the President`s veto of a legislative action …this is known as an override . A two third vote in each legislative chamber ( House of Representatives and Senate ) is required to override a Presidential veto .
The Senate can reject a treaty that the Executive has signed ; a two thirds vote in the Senate is required to formally enact a treaty .
The Senate must approve Executive appointments to cabinet , and the Federal Judiciary .
The ultimate check for the legislative branch is the power to impeach and remove the president . The House of Representatives acts as prosecutor , and The Senate acts as jury . The House of Representatives drafted articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon in 1974 , but Nixon resigned the office of the presidency before he was formally impeached .
The XYZ company is a producer of dishwashers. The company’s marketing department has estimated the following demand curve for the company’s best-selling model in one of its regions. Q = 2000-4P+6A+5l+5Pc – 4Ac Where Q = Number of dishwashers demanded P = $600; Price of dishwashers A = $150; Advertising expenditures (thousands) I = $50; GDP per capita (thousands) PC = $500; Competitor’s price AC = $200; Competitor’s advertising expenditures (thousands) a. Calculate the amount demanded for this product using the information given above. b. Plot the demand curve with P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. c. Calculate the price to sell 3450 units. d. What would be the effect on the sales of dishwashers if the competitor reduces price by $50? What should be the change in P to offset the decrease in PC ? e. In response to competitor’s strategy of reducing PC , what else can the company do to keep sales at the same level if it does not want to change P ? (Base your answer on the information given above.) f. If the government increases the sales tax by 1 percent, what will be the sale price of dishwashers after the tax (assume that the elasticity of demand is equal to the elasticity of supply in absolute value).
