Suppose that every additional four percentage points in the investment rate (I ÷ GDP) boost economic growth by one percentage point. Assume also that all investment must be financed with consumer saving. The economy is now assumed to be fully employed at
If the goal is to raise the economic growth rate by 1 percent,
a. By how much must investment increase? $ billion
b. By how much must consumption decline for this to occur?

For questions a, b

Generally, the equation for the investment accounts is  mathematically given as

x=($1tri / $8 tri) * 100

x= 12.5%

Now we know that the answer lies in the fact that the investment rate may be increased by 4% for every 1% rise in economic growth.

Therefore,

=($8 trillion * 0.165%)

=$1.32 trillion

The additional investment is 3.2% of GDP.

Therefore, an increase in investment of ($1320 - $1000) billion is needed to raise GDP growth by 1 percentage point.

This means an additional $320 billion in spending is required.

(b).

In conclusion, Since we were already aware that we would need to cut down on our spending in order to make this investment, we may conclude that:

Reduced consumption of $320 billion is needed for this to occur.

BYOB is a monopolist in beer production and distribution in the imaginary economy of Hopsville. Suppose that BYOB cannot price discriminate; that is, it sells its beer at the same price per can to all customers. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (MR), average total cost (ATC), and demand (D) for beer in this market.
Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for BYOB. If BYOB is making a profit, use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade in the area representing its profit. On the other hand, if BYOB is suffering a loss, use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade in the area representing its loss.

As Fowling's attorney, you should aim to get her the best possible deal in this contract negotiation. To do this, you should focus on getting her a higher percentage of the film's budget, a higher minimum guarantee, and a longer option period. You should also try to get her a higher percentage of gross profits and a bestseller bonus based on the New York Times children's and fiction lists.
In terms of the purchase price, you should aim for 3% of the film's budget, with a minimum guarantee of 2.5%. This will give Fowling a good amount of money regardless of how the film does. If the film is a huge success, she will still be compensated well. However, if the film does not do as well as hoped, she will still receive a minimum guarantee that is fair.
In terms of the option period, you should aim for a 6 month option, with the possibility of two 3-month extensions. This will give the studio enough time to get the film made without delaying too long. You should also try to get Fowling a per-week bestseller bonus, which will compensate her for every week her book remains on the New York Times children's or fiction list.
In terms of creative control, you should aim for Fowling to be a consultant and producer on the film, with final approval on casting and the script. This will give her some control over how the film is made, while still allowing the studio to make the final decisions.
Overall, you should try to get Fowling the best possible deal in this contract negotiation. By doing so, you will ensure that she is fairly compensated for her work and that the film is made in a way that she is happy with.

WSM Corporation is considering offering an air shuttle service between Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. It plans to offer four flights every day (excluding certain holidays) for a total of 1,400 flights per year (= 350 days × 4 flights per day). WSM has hired a consultant to determine activity-based costs for this operation. The consultant’s report shows the following.



Activity Activity Measure (cost driver) Unit Cost(cost per unit of activity)
Flying and maintaining aircraft Number of flights $ 500 per flight
Serving passengers Number of passengers $ 5 per passenger
Advertising and marketing Number of promotions $ 40,000 per promotion


WSM estimates the following annual information. With 4 advertising promotions, it will be able to generate demand for 40 passengers per flight at a fare of $150. The lease of the 60-seat aircraft will cost $2,000,000. Other equipment costs will be $1,000,000. Administrative and other marketing costs will be $600,000.



Required:

a. What annual operating income can WSM expect from this new service?

b-1. WSM is considering selling tickets over the Internet to save on commissions and other costs. It is estimated that the cost driver rate for flights would decrease by $100 as a result of Internet sales. Administrative and other marketing costs would increase by $1 million. WSM estimates that the added convenience would generate a 5 percent increase in demand. All other costs and fares would remain the same. What annual operating income can WSM expect from adopting Internet ticket sales?

b-2. Would you recommend that WSM adopt Internet ticket sales?

c. Assume that WSM management decides not to adopt the Internet strategy, regardless of your answer to requirement (b). Instead, it is now considering a plan to sell tickets at two prices. An unrestricted ticket (good for travel at any time on any day) would sell for $ 175. A discount ticket, good for reservations made in advance, would sell for $130. Management estimates that it can sell 35,000 tickets (25 per flight) at the unrestricted airfare of $175. All other data remain the same.

Ignoring the information in requirement (b), how many discounted tickets would WSM have to sell annually to earn an operating income of $3,700,000? Assume that the annual number of flights remains at 1,400 and that the discounted tickets would be evenly divided across the 1,400 flights.

The eight types of waste include all of the following except:
