Answer:
diminishing returns,
Explanation:
The law of diminishing marginal returns claims that the returns from the input will first increase at an increasing rate until production reaches an optimal level. After the optimal level, and holding the other factors constant, the returns from the output will start diminishing and eventually turn negative.
Diminishing returns concepts apply in the short term, where only variable inputs can change. For example, in a factory setting, the optimal production capacity is fixed in the short-run. Additional usage of a variable such as labor increase returns until the factor reaches its optimal capital. Additional hiring of labor results in diminishing returns in labor output.

4. Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :
- Reduce the variable costs per unit
- Reduce fixed overheads
Explanation:
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100
Where,
Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs
= $88,000 - $23,760
= $64,240
Then,
Contribution Margin Ratio = $64,240/ $88,000 × 100
= 73 %
Variable Cost Ratio = Variable Cost / Sales × 100
= $23,760 / $88,000 × 100
= 27 %
Break-even sales revenue = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
= $43,800 ÷ 0.73
= $60,000
<u>Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :</u>
- Reduce the variable costs per unit
- Reduce fixed overheads

<span>The most recent study was done on June 1, 2017, and all information is from that date. There are 673 US District court judgeships and four territorial ones. At the time of this study, there were 160 active circuit court judges and 19 vacant positions, while there were 570 district court judges and a whopping 103 vacant positions.
There are 59 female circuit court judges, 37%. Men, therefore, are in 63% of positions. Intesretingly, this number has actually improved, with only one woman serving in 1977.
Disregarding race, 75% of circuit court judges are white, 13% African American, 9% Hispanic, and only 3% Asian American. 12 courts have African American judges, nine have Hispanic, and five have Asian American. Overall, all three percentages have risen since 1977 (with some variability), but interestingly, Asian Americans have only recently begun to rise in presence., starting in about 2010.
Combining gender and race, white men make up 45.6% of all circuit court judges, while Asian American women only make up 0.6%. In all races, men overpower women in numbers by a large amount.
Looking at age, the average is 64.7 years old, with over 50% over 65 and only 2% under 45. The vast majority were appointed between 45 and 54, though many came slightly before or after.
It is worth noting that the first openly gay circuit court judge was Todd M. Hughes, appointed by Obama in 2013.
If we are considering race, Asian Americans are the lowest represented. If we are considering gender, women are less represented. Overall in race and gender, Asian American women are least represented. Looking at age, people under 40 are underrepresented. Overall, though, the least common demographic would be open members of the LGBT+ community.
As you can see, this is not a straightforward question! It is a hugely interesting topic and one I plan to explore further.</span>
