At this time people wanted to spend their money instead of save it for hard times. Society’s hourly pay rate nearly double and tripled during this era. War factories transitioned from making war materials to making civilian supplies, which lead to the boost in our economy at the time. Today, effects of the Baby Boom have many factors that come into play that affect our economy.

The remaining sales derive from consumers visiting Frog’s Leap’s winery (Gilinsky, 150). During the 2009 to 2010 recession, Frog’s Leap faired out well in accordance to historical financial ratios (See Exhibit 3) and similar sized wineries during the FY 2009 to 2010 as illustrated in Exhibit 6 (Gilinsky, 163). Since 1999, premium wineries in the North Coast have increased from 329 to 1250 (Gilinsky 145 – 146). In the past decade, 25 to 44 year olds have emerged as the largest segment of wine consumers, replacing Baby-Boomers who led most of the industry’s growth in the past 30 years (Gilinsky 147).

If A-1 Trailers fell it is in the company’s best interest to proceed with the 18,000,000-dollar recall and simply settle the claims after fighting them (if any), A-1 have every right to this decision. A-1 is in no way obligated to make any decision based on the so-called "greater good".

Spared the physical destruction of war, the U.S economy dominated the world economy. After 4 years of military buildup, the U.S had also become the leading military power.”
