QUESTION 15 Your team has experienced an increase in absenteeism in the past six weeks. In the meeting to define the problem, George recommends that personal leave days be abolished. The group ignores that suggestion but instead decides to fire all employees that are absent starting on Monday. What went wrong with the decision-making process?

Suppose the government enacts a stimulus program composed of $600 billion of new government spending and $300 billion of tax cuts for an economy currently producing a gdp of $14 comma 000 billion. if all of the new spending occurs in the current year and the government expenditure multiplier is 1.5, the expenditure portion of the stimulus package will add nothing percentage points of extra growth to the economy. (round your response to two decimal places.)
