The total cost of reaching consumers (C) depends on the number of consumers (N), advertising costs (A), and transportation costs (T). The linear cost prediction model is represented as: C = c - nN + aA + tT where c, n, a, and t are constants and c estimates the total cost when the remaining variables are zero. Which of the following interpretations is true about this model?

A. Change in variables N, A, and T will not reflect any changes in c.

B. Change in variables N, A, and T will cause n, a, and t to change.

C. When variables N, A, and T are zero, C = c - n + a + t.

D. As n decreases, c will increase.

Acompany that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. prior to buying the new equipment, the company used 6 workers, who produced an average of 79 carts per hour. workers receive $16 per hour, and machine coast was $49 per hour. with the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by $11 per hour while output increased by four carts per hour. a) compute the multifactor productivity (mfp) (labor plus equipment) under the prior to buying the new equipment. the mfp (carts/$) = (round to 4 decimal places). b) compute the productivity changes between the prior to and after buying the new equipment. the productivity growth = % (round to 2 decimal places)
