Doubling the capacity of a bottleneck operation would theoretically always double the capacity of the process. Ignore waiting ti
nignag [31]

Answer: b) No

Explanation:

If you double the capacity of the bottleneck operation i.e the operation that has a limited capacity that is causing the entire project to slow down, it could work for removing the bottleneck from that particular operation. The problem however, is that this bottleneck might then be passed into another operation which will then slow down the entire process again.

Think of this this way, imagine there is constant traffic on one road with a double lane in a city and the city decides to up it to a four lane drive. The traffic subsides in that area but still continues on the road lane after the upgraded road which is a 2 lane as well.

The problem may have been fixed in one area but might just come up in another one.

A country is closed. It has no government sector, and its aggregate price levels and interest rates are fixed. Furthermore, the
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The country has closed economy; it means there is no other trading relation with, outside countries. Export imports do not affect the economy of the country, and here is no government interference as mentioned in the question. This is a self sufficient country, its demand fulfilled from inside of the country. So its aggregate price levels and interest rate are fixed. MPC or the marginal propensity to consume indicates whether there is an increase in disposable income or increase in consumption. Here consumption increases equal to the increase in the income.

MPC = ΔC /ΔY which is constant here.

The increase in income in this country is mostly permanent and increases in a fix period of time and proportionately.

C= 200 +0.75 YD (YD is disposable income), Y=75, GDP =$900

The economy achieves it’s equilibrium level when supplies meets demand or the GDP is equals to it’s total expenditure. MPC is a fraction between 0 and 1 , MPC means a change in consumption brings the change in YD . here the MPC is equals to MPS which means the change in saving bring by the change in disposable income. All income here saved or consumed. So the change in income equals to the change in consumption or saving.

MPC+ MPS = 1

So the average propensity to consume is proportionate to income which is spend on consumption. APC= C/ YD. And the average proportionate to save is equals to income saved APS= S/YD . so here APC +APS = 1. The increase in production or price leads to the increase in the total value of output, that is the equilibrium condition.
