The correct answer is letter "D": and saving would decrease.
Explanation:
Increases in interest rates are not beneficial for economic growth. <em>By paying more taxes companies' revenues are reduced discouraging entrepreneurs to go on new ventures</em>.

Answer:
The company's degree of operating leverage is closest to $840000
Explanation:
Selling price per unit = Sales revenue / No. of bags sold
= $1560000/200000 bags = $7.8 per bag
Variable cost per unit=Total variable expenses/No. of units
= $840000/200000 units = $4.2 per bag
Company’s unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit
= $7.8 per unit-$4.2 per unit = $3.6 per unit
Company's degree of operating leverage = Variables manufacturing expense + Variable selling and administrative expense
=$660000+$180000 = $840000
Answer:
d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment
While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage
Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR
Therefore option d is correct
