You have selected to place a direct mail piece with a local vendor that will include your message insert along with others. The vendor's mailing will reach 100,000 homes but only 50,000 are in your immediate marketing area. You would like to target only the 50,000 homes closest to your store, but would consider the full 100,000 home reach if it is cost effective. The cost for the production of the insert and mailing is $75 per 10,000 for the 50,000. There is also a $50 charge for using the 50,000 home reach. The cost for production of the insert and mailing is $55 per 10,000 for the 100,000. Calculate the total investment for this direct mail promotion for each option. A. 50,000 Reach: $400 100,000 Reach: $700
B. 50,000 Reach: $360 100,000 Reach: $500
C. 50,000 Reach: $700 100,000 Reach: $900
D. 50,000 Reach: $425 100,000 Reach $550

Suppose an economist believes that the price level in the economy is directly related to the money supply, or the amount of money circulating in the economy. the economist proposes the following relationship: p=a x m - p=price level - m=money supply - a=a composite of other factors, including real gdp, that change very slowly over time. how might an economist gather empirical data to test the proposed relationship between money and the price level? an economist would persuade the federal reserve to change the money supply to various levels, and observe the resulting changes in the price level. unlike researchers in the hard sciences, economists cannot study complex relationships using data. economists do not usually develop theoretical models of the economy but only analyze summary statistics about the current state of the economy. an economist would look for data on past changes in the money supply, and note the resulting changes in the price level

Bakery has bought 250 pounds of muffin dough. they want to make waffles or muffins in half-dozen packs out of it. half a dozen of muffins requires 1 lb of dough and a pack of waffles uses 3/4 lb of dough. it take bakers 6 minutes to make a half-dozen of waffles and 3 minutes to make a half-dozen of muffins. their profit will be $1.50 on each pack of waffles and $2.00 on each pack of muffins. how many of each should they make to maximize profit, if they have just 20 hours to do everything?
