Answer:
Process resources.
Explanation:
Assume the process of obtaining a driver's license is considered too long because of too few people who can administer the final driving test. One way to resolve this problem is to hire more people who can give the driving test. This is an example of a change in <u>process resources.</u>
Process resouces: It is a management strategy to resolve operational issue and get smooth work flow in the process by hiring more resources to reduce waiting time and deliver the services as per expectation and on the time. It show the operational efficiency of process.
In the given case, hiring more people to adminster driving test will help in reducing the waiting time of customer and deliver services as per expectation.

Explanation:
The Summary of the Cash Flows for this project will be as follows :
Year 0 - $7,125,000
Year 1 $1,875,000
Year 2 $1,875,000
Year 3 $1,875,000
Year 4 $1,875,000
Year 5 $1,875,000
Year 6 $1,875,000
Year 7 $1,875,000
Year 8 $1,875,000
Payback Period
$7,125,000 = Year 1 ($1,875,000) + Year 1 ($1,875,000) + Year 1 ($1,875,000) + $1,500,000 / $1,875,000
= 3 years and 9 months

Answer:
Government spending would have to change by <u>$1.6 billion</u>
Explanation:
The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) refers to the proportion of an increase in aggregate income that is spent on consumption of commodities by a consumer.
Since from the question, we have:
MPC = Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75
The MPC can therefore be used to calculate the fiscal multiplier which measures the effect of government spending on real GDP as follows:
Fiscal multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC) = 1 / (1 - 0.75) = 1 / 0.25 = 4.0
Therefore, we have:
Change in government spending = Fiscal multiplier * Amount of targeted increase real GDP = 4.0 * $400 million = $1.6 billion
Therefore, government spending would have to change by <u>$1.6 billion</u> to generate $400 million increase in real GDP.
