Answer:

The DRS's EBIT will be $205,920.

Explanation:

Degree of operating leverage measures how EBIT will change with change in sales

Degree of operating leverage (DOL) = % change in EBIT / % change in sales

In our case, DOL = 3.2x

Sales forecast = $300,000

Actual sales = $313,500

% change in sales = (Actual sales - forecast )/ forecast = (313,500 - 300,000) / 300,000

                              = 4.5%

EBIT forecast = $180,000

Now putting everything in DOL formula

3.2 = % change in EBIT / % change in sales = % change in EBIT / 4.5

% change in EBIT = 3.2 * 4.5

                             = 14.4%

Actual EBIT = Forecast *(1 + % change)

                    = 180,000*(1 + 0.014)

                    = $205,920

Therefore, The DRS's EBIT will be $205,920.

An increase in interest rates affects aggregate demand by
skad [1K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

When there is an increase in the interest rate then as a result this will shift the aggregate demand curve leftwards. This is because of the fall in one of the component of aggregate demand curve that is investment.

Increased interest rate will reduce the investment demand and hence shifts the aggregate demand curve rightwards. This increase in the interest rate will also increase the reserves of the banks.

When there is a leftward shift in the AD curve then as a result there is a fall in both real GDP and Price level in an economy.
