The graphical representation of the quarterly growth rates of real GDP from 1960 to 2018 using the percent change from the previous quarter is as follows:
The quarterly percent change at the annual rate indicates the percent change, if the quarterly rate goes on for four quarters. It is calculated by compounding of quarterly rate for four quarters.
For some unpredictable quarterly series, percentage changes at quarterly rates rather than at annual rates are preferred because the question of comparability is less relevant and because the annual rate of change is smaller.
When these three data and their respective graph compare to each other for some specific successive period of time, following result is determined:
- 2nd one that is, GDP growth rate using percentage change from quarter one year ago is most volatile and 3rd way that is, GDP growth rate by using percent change from preceding period quarterly is least volatile.

Suppose that a paper mill "feeds" a downstream box mill. For the downstream mill, the marginal profitability of producing boxes declines with volume.
For example, the first unit of boxes increases earnings by $10, the second by $9, the third by $8, and so on, until the tenth unit increases profit by
just $1.
The cost the upstream mill incurs for producing enough paper (one "unit" of paper) to make one unit of boxes is $3.50.
Assume the two mills operate as separate profit centers, and the paper mill sets the price of paper. It follows that the marginal profitability of boxes
represents the highest price that the box division would be willing to pay the paper division for boxes.. Furthermore, assume that fixed costs are $0
for the paper mill.
The following table summarizes the quantity, total revenue, and marginal costs from the perspective of the paper mill for selling paper to the box mill
at various prices.
In the following table, fill in the marginal revenue, total cost, and total…
Planes frequently push back from the gate on time, but then wait 2 feet away from the gate until it is time to queue up for takeoff. This increases fuel
consumption and increases the time that passengers must sit in a cramped plane awaiting takeoff. The following table shows the pay schedule for the
flight crew.
Pay
Per diem
Holding pay per hour
Flight Attendant
Captain
First Officer
$3
$3
$3
$20
$20
$20
Hourly wage (after push back)
$38
$184
$50
Per diem pay indicates how much the flight crew earns once it checks into the airport. Holding pay indicates how much the flight crew earns after it
loads the plane. Hourly wage indicates how much the flight crew earns after it pushes back from the gate and turns on the beacon.
In this scenario, who does not have an incentive to push back from the gate as early as possible? Check all that apply.
Captain
Flight attendants
Passengers
First officer

They should analyze competitors' prices and customer sensitivity to price changes, determine price elasticity, and test the strategy by implementing a slight price increase and monitoring sales closely. If costs exceed revenues, the couple should analyze their financials, evaluate their business model, explore new revenue streams, and consider long-term viability. They should analyze their financial statements to identify high costs and areas for reduction, evaluate their business model based on market demand, and explore new revenue streams like catering, special events, or partnerships with local businesses. Long-term viability is a key consideration, as if the business still operates at a loss after making adjustments, it may be necessary to consider shutting down.

You can charge higher prices if the parents think these are valuable by providing different services such as extended hours, healthy lunches, and smaller staff-to-child ratios. But pushing for prices much higher won’t make sense unless parents think the added value is worth the price hike. You should research your local parents to find out what they want. If you want your business to be profitable, then focus on your strengths, do great work and have a reputation. Promote your special products and keep your prices low. If you want to see if you’re making money, keep a log of all your profits and losses. You’re making money if you’re earning more than you’re losing. A break-even analysis can help you figure out how many customers you need to eat and start making money. Keep an eye on your budget so you don’t get off track.arrow_forward
