Answer:

C) Raise output until marginal costs are equal to marginal revenue

Explanation:

According to my research on Macro Economics and Business Structures, I can say that the best thing to do when marginal costs are falling would be to Raise output until marginal costs are equal to marginal revenue.

Answer:

The question is incomplete, please see complete question below:

Following several years of declining advertising sales, the Greenville Times reorganized its advertising sales force two years ago. Before the reorganization, the sales force was organized geographically, with some sales representatives concentrating on city-center businesses and others, on different outlying regions. The reorganization attempted to increase the sales representatives' knowledge of clients' businesses by having each sales representative deal with only one type of industry or of retailing. After the reorganization, advertising sales increased.

In assessing whether the improvement in advertising sales can properly be attributed to the reorganization, it would be helpful to find out each of the following EXCEPT:

A.Two years ago, what proportion of the Greenville Times' total revenue was generated by advertising sales?

B.Has the circulation of the Greenville Times increased substantially in the last two years?

C.Has there been a substantial turnover in personnel in the advertising sales force over the last two years?

D.Before the reorganization, had sales representatives found it difficult to keep up with relevant developments in all types of businesses to which they are assigned?

E.Has the economy in Greenville and the surrounding regions been growing rapidly over the last two years?

The correct answer is

<em>A.Two years ago, what proportion of the Greenville Times' total revenue was generated by advertising sales? </em>

Explanation:

The proportion of the Total Revenue (TR) generated by advertising sales is of no significance. Our objective is to find out if there was an improvement in advertising sales that can properly be attributed to the reorganization.
