output in each of the following scenarios (consider each one separately). a) R rises to 4 percent. b) R falls to 1 percent. c) a ¯c increases by 1 percentage point. d) a ¯g decreases by 2 percentage points. e) a ¯im decreases by 2 percentage points. Answer to Problem 1: This is just a straightforward application of the IS formula. You can verify that the changes in short-run output will be as follows: a) A fall of a fall of 1.5 percent. b) An increase of 0.75 percent. c) An increase of 1 percent. d)

concluded an analysis of the current cost and pricing structure of the current Gizmo against the proposed cost and pricing structure provided for the new improved Gizmo. Under the current pricing and cost structure our breakeven point is 32836 unit or $2‚462‚686.57 in dollars‚ keeping the same selling price of $75.00 while increasing our contribution margin from $24.75 to $30.00‚ our breakeven point with the new Gizmo‚ is 36667 units or $2‚750‚000 dollars which is approximately a 112% increase

1)Why does Coelho open with the modified myth of Narcissus? How does the new version differ from the original one? How does it change the myth’s meaning? What might the author be suggesting about how we perceive ourselves and the world? Paulo Coelho began with the tale of Narcissus to show the reader that when you are so caught up in your own life you do not realize the greater things like nature and friends. It differs because it leaves out how the lake was also too caught up in its own beauty
