Suppose in studying Climate Change we discover that in one country, deserts are going to be created where formerly there was grasslands and an abundance of water and in another place the coastlines are going to be altered. If you are an American, how do you think a politician is going to respond to such a problem.
Will his/her response be well thought out based on scientific preparedness, or will he (or she) grab onto the first solution suggestion to him/her and try and implement that?
Whatever he/she does, it will cost and everyone will be affected. A starting place is to find out what presidents in the past have done. During the Bush administration (the second Bush), there was an oil crisis. He responded by allocating more acreage to the growing of corn so supplementing oil production. Replaceable resources for non renewable ones. Sounded like a very good solution, but was it? As it turned out, no. He was robbing Peter to pay Paul. Thousands of people suffered (and died) with that decision because food is much more important than solving transportation problems at the expense of food.
The same is true here. If a solution is sought for global warming, politicians have to be well aware of what they are doing. And that has to be studied very carefully.
Answer:
An increase in taxes.
Explanation:
A rise in the prices is indications that the inflation rate is high. Policymakers should intervene by introducing contractionary measures that will counter the rising inflation. Fiscal policy measures, such as increasing taxes, reduce inflationary pressures without the risk of causing a recession.
Increase taxes reduces the purchasing power of businesses and individuals, thereby reducing the aggregate demand. A reduction in aggregated demand lowers production levels, which results in low inflation but increases the unemployment rate.
Teams with high levels of openness and emotional stability deal with task conflict better than those without these characteristics.
When you are able to be open about your feelings and keep them stable (emotional stability) dealing with conflict becomes easier. When you are emotionally stable, you are able to understand that emotions will arise during various activities and it's okay to experience different emotions as long as they don't derail you from what you need to accomplish.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The capacity utilization rate is found by dividing used capacity by the total capacity operating level.
Since services cannot be stocked, the ideal scenario would be to operate at full capacity every single day, but that is not possible. I'm not sure if there is any service company in the world that operates at full capacity all the time, not even Magic Kingdom or Disneyland.
But that doesn't mean that it is always bad to operate at low capacity levels, since every service company must regularly perform maintenance operations, e.g. a hotel must be painted and other repairs must be made.
Also, many services are seasonal, e.g. you do not sky all year long, only during winter, and the opposite applies to the beaches and other parks.
B. Getting caught in the transition period without a clear strategic advantage
C. Failure to recognize the declining importance of product differentiation and the increasing importance of service
D. Giving up market share too easily in favor of short-run profit
Answer:
B. Getting caught in the transition period without a clear strategic advantage.
Answer:
budget slack.
Explanation:
A budget slack refers to a deliberate over estimation of expenses or under estimation of revenues. Either way, the person presenting the budget will try to lower their estimated profit or try to obtain more money for their department or division.
In this case, Karren is over estimating the expenses of her department. Probably she wishes to receive a larger amount of money in order to increase her department's activities. If she is able to pull it out, she will receive the credit for increasing sales, but if her department is not able to increase total sales even with a larger budget, it will be her responsibility.
Answer:
rises above; rises above
Explanation:
According to the Taylor rule, the Fed should raise the federal funds interest rate when inflation rises above the Fed's inflation target or when real GDP rises above the Fed's output target.
Answer:
The Federal Reserve seeks to control inflation by influencing interest rates. When inflation is too high, the Federal Reserve typically raises interest rates to slow the economy and bring inflation down.
