Answer:

A-Changing federal income tax rates

Explanation:

The Fed controls the money supply using monetary policy tools. Monetary policy is either expansionary or contractionary. The Fed chooses which policies to apply depending on the prevailing economic conditions.

Monetary policy tools available to the Fed include reserve requirements, interest on reserves, open-market operations, discount rates, and the federal fund rate.

The Fed does not set the federal income tax rates. Taxes are part of the fiscal policy applied by the executive arm of government. The government alters taxation to achieve desired macroeconomics objectives.

Williamson Industries has $7 billion in sales and $2 billion in fixed assets. Currently, the company's fixed assets are operatin

In-s [12.5K]

Answer: Williamson industries would have obtained $7.78 billion in sales

Explanation: According to the question, the company is having a total of $2 billion in fixed assets. The fixed assets are currently operating at 90% (0.9) of its total capacity. At his level, the company is able to achieve a sales figure of $7 billion. The implication is as follows;

Fixed assets (at 100%) = 2 billion

Fixed assets (at 90%) = 2 * 0.9

Fixed assets (at 90%) = 1.8

If the company utilizes $1.8 billion to achieve a $7 billion sales figure, then operating at full capacity (100%) would yield the following;

7/x = 90/100

(Where x equals sales level at 100% capacity)

7/x = 0.9

Cross multiply

x = 7/0.9

x = 7.7777...

x ≈ 7.78

Therefore, if Williamson Industries had been operating at full capacity, it would have obtained a sales level of $7.78 billion
