![[Animal Care] Kellian, a licensed veterinarian, was recently elected to the U.S. Senate. Kellian is very concerned about the
lack of care for homeless cats and dogs. She proposes legislation whereby citizens of all states are to be taxed sufficiently
to provide for no-kill animal shelters, and that citizens in states with higher-than-average incomes are to be taxed at a
higher rate than citizens of other states. She also proposes that federal funds for state highways be denied to any state
that fails to provide assistance to low-income citizens in covering pet vaccinations. José, another new senator, tells Kellian
that, apart from the mandated federal income tax, Congress lacks the authority to tax states because the U.S. Constitution
expressly reserves that right to the states, Illyas, another senator, tells Kellian that Congress has no authority to link
highway funds or any other funds with social welfare objectives. Devonne, a clerk in the Senate, tells Kellian that Congress
is absolutely prohibited from taxing residents of one state at a higher rate than citizens of another state.
Is Illyas's statement about linking funds with social welfare objectives correct?
Multiple Choice
Illyas is correct
Iliyas is correct only if the state is making efforts to put social programs into effect and is not acting unreasonably in refusing to provide other needed
services
Illyas is partially correct in saying that Congress has no authority to link highway funds with social services, but any other funds may be linked to social
services by executive order.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/6c4da176-489d-40c7-8d0b-47a01ad8c519/1a6f0560-00dd-400d-be8d-55673451f2a1/pla2iki_thumbnail.jpeg)

A manager of an inventory system believes that inventory models are important decision-making aids. The manager has experience with the EOQ policy, but has never considered a backorder model because of the assumption that backorders were "bad" and should be avoided. However, with upper management's continued pressure for cost reduction, you have been asked to analyze the economics of a backorder policy for some products that can possibly be backordered. For a specific product with D = 800 units per year, C. = $150, C₁ = $3, and C₁ = $20, what is the difference in total annual cost between the EOQ model and the planned shortage or backorder model? If the manager adds constraints that no more than 25% of the units can be backordered and that no customer will have to wait more than 15 days for an order, should the backorder inventory policy be adopted? Assume 250 working days per year.arrow_forwardAn insurance company offers four different deductible levels-none,low, medium, and high-for its homeowner's policyholders and threedifferent levels-low, medium, and high-for its automobilepolicyholders.
