A growing trend to "Buy American" may encourage U.S. automakers to increase political pressure on Washington to pass legislation

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

C) a positive result from regulatory and economic environmental forces.

Explanation:

In the short run the whole economy will benefit, more American jobs will be created, consumers will probably get good cars at even lower prices, but on the long run the scenario may not be that good for everyone. If Toyota builds the plant, it will be the result of economic and political pressures, and that is a game that two can play, just ask farmers about the trade deal with China.

On the other hand, this is a type of deja vu (or been there, done that), and it ended up with GM and Chrysler bankrupt and Ford barely surviving. This types of policies were enforced in the 1980s by president Reagan and the famous "Made in the USA" by Bruce Springsteen. Back then Honda had a small factory and Toyota was starting to consider building a plant in the US, Nissan hadn't showed up yet. Fast forward a few years and the only good American vehicles are pickups, the Japanese brands wiped out the rest. The country is full of Camrys, Accords, Civics, Corollas, CRVs and Rav4s. They are great cars, too great for the American car manufacturers to compete against. Who knows, with this type of policies maybe in 10 years the only American car manufacturer left will be Tesla.

This is like playing with fire on top of a fuel truck.

Rodriquez Company budgeted the following sales in units: January 30,000 February 20,000 March 40,000 Rodriquez's policy is to ha

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

24,000 units

Explanation:

Given:

Budgeted sales for January = 30,000

Budgeted sales for February = 20,000

Opening inventory in January = 7,500

Desired ending inventory = 20% of sales in February

= 0.2 × 20,000

= 4,000 units

Units required in January = 30,000 + 4,000

= 34,000 units

Units to be produced in January = 34,000 - opening inventory

= 34,000 - 7,500

= 26,500 units

Budgeted sales for February = 20,000

Budgeted sales for March = 40,000

Opening inventory in February is closing inventory of January = 4,000

Desired ending inventory = 20% of sales in March

= 0.2 × 40,000

= 8,000 units

Units required in February = 20,000 + 8,000

= 28,000 units

Units to be produced in February = 28,000 - opening inventory

= 28,000 - 4,000

= 24,000 units

Therefore, there is a direct relationship between the price and the quantity supplied, while the price and quantity demanded have an inverse relationship.

When the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied are intersect at the price so we called market equilibrium

Antonio has $11.00 to spend on a lunch consisting of hamburgers ($1.50 each) and French fries ($1.00 per order). Antonio's satis

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: <em>$4. 71 hamburger and $6.29 French fries. </em>

Explanation:

Total spendable income of Antonio = $11.00

1 hamburger = $1.50

1 order of French fries = $1.00

Utility maximization function: U(x1, x2) = x1x2 i.e. 1 hamburger and 2 orders of French fries

Using the Utility maximization function: U(x1, x2) = $1.50 + $2.00

= $3.50 per lunch

Therefore the customer will purchase hamburger worth of $(1.50 x 11.00/3.50) = $4. 71

And French fries orders worth of $(2.00 x 11.00/3.50) = $6.29

<em>Antonio will maximize his satisfaction by purchasing $4. 71 hamburger and $6.29 French fries. </em>
