Suppose that the wage is $20 per hour in a two-sector (manufacturing and agriculture) specific-factors model. Currently, the prices of manufactured and agricultural outputs are $5 and $1, respectively; the marginal product of labor in the manufactured sector is 6 units per hour; and the marginal product of labor in the agricultural sector is 10 units per hour. What will happen to the distribution of labor between the two sectors?
Options :
A) Nothing will happen. The current allocation of labor between the two sectors is ideal.
B) The manufacturing sector will demand more labor, and the agricultural sector will demand less labor at the current wage.
C) The agricultural sector will demand more labor, and the manufacturing sector will demand less labor at the current wage.
D) Both the agricultural and the manufacturing sector will demand more labor at the current wage.
Answer: B) The manufacturing sector will demand more labor, and the agricultural sector will demand less labor at the current wage.
Explanation: Analysing the marginal product of labor for the TWO sectors ; the manufacturing and agricultural which measures the change in production output as labor is increased. The output produced by increasing labor is 6units for manufacturing and 10 units for agricultural, agricultural seems greater, however, comparing output with the price per unit of product, manufacturing and agricultural sells for $5 and $1 respectively. Meaning manufacturing generates ($5 * 6) = $30 while agricultural generates ($1 * 10)) $10 per increase in number of Labor.
Therefore, at the current wage of $20, revenue made by hiring one more unit of labor into the agricultural sector cannot even cater for it's wage. Therefore, agricultural sector will demand less while manufacturing will demand more.
In its third year, a project is expected to generate earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of $283,104 and its depreciation expense is expected to be $53,228. If the company’s tax rate is 38%, what is the project’s expected operating cash flow?
Answer:
$195,751
Explanation:
Calculation for the project's expected operating cash flow
The first step will be to find the EBIT
using this formula
EBIT =(Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization -Depreciation expense)
Let plug in the formula
EBIT= 283,104 - 53,228
EBIT= 229,876
Second step is to find the NOPAT using this formula
NOPAT = EBIT(1- tax rate)
NOPAT= 229,876(1 - 0.38)
NOPAT= 142,523
Last step is to calculate for Expected Operating Cash flow
Using this formula
Operating cash flow = NOPAT + Depreciation expenses
Let plug in the formula
Operating cash flow = 142,523 + 53,228
Operating cash flow = $195,751
Therefore the project's expected operating cash flow will be $195,751

Pearl Windows manufactures and sells custom storm windows for three-season porches. Pearl also provides installation service for the windows. The installation process does not involve changes in the windows, so this service can be performed by other vendors. Pearl enters into the following contract on July 1, 2017, with a local homeowner. The customer purchases windows for a price of $2,440 and chooses Pearl to do the installation. Pearl charges the same price for the windows irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. The installation service is estimated to have a standalone selling price of $630. The customer pays Pearl $2,040 (which equals the standalone selling price of the windows, which have a cost of $1,130) upon delivery and the remaining balance upon installation of the windows. The windows are delivered on September 1, 2017, Pearl completes installation on October 15, 2017, and the customer pays the balance due.
Given uncertainty of finding skilled labor, Pearl is unable to develop a reliable estimate for the standalone selling price of the installation.

Jerome says that he will spend exactly $25 (think sales/revenue) each month on new apps for his mobile device, regardless of the price of apps. Jerome’s demand for apps is a. Perfectly elastic. b. Unit elastic. c. Perfectly inelastic. d. Somewhat inelastic, but not perfectly inelastic.
Answer:
Option B, unit elastic.
Explanation:
The option “b” is correct because as per the expenditure method to calculate the elasticity of demand when the total expenditure (TE) remains the same regardless of the increase or decrease in the price or quantity then the elasticity is equal to one. Thus when elasticity is equal to one this is called the unit elastic demand. thus, option b is right.
Which step in developing a mission statement requires you to think about who is affected by your organization and how they might measure your success?
Answer:
Considering the stakeholders' perspectives.
Explanation:
Considering the stakeholders' perspectives is a step in developing a mission statement which requires that you to think about who is affected by your organization and how they might measure your success.
Generally, when the top executives or management are developing a mission statement, decisions, and goals, it is very essential and important that they ensure it is favourable to the stakeholders. Stakeholders can be defined as a group of people who have interest or shares in a business entity and are affected by the decisions of the company.
Hence, the stakeholders perspective needs to be considered at all times because they're part of the business and their actions can affect the success of the business.
If a 10% decrease in the price of one product that you buy causes an 8% increase in quantity demanded of that product, will another 10% decrease in the price cause another 8% increase (no more and no less) in quantity demanded?
Answer:
No
Explanation:
to determine if another 10% decrease in the price cause another 8% increase (no more and no less) in quantity demanded, we have to determine the price elasticity of demand.
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
8% / 10% = 0.8
demand in inelastic so a 10% reduction in price would lead to a less than 8% change in quantity demanded
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Is government-subsidized flood insurance more likely to help relatively rich people or relatively poor people? Will it increase, decrease, or leave unchanged the amount of damage occurring from floods?
Answer:
Policy (SFIP), actually touches and damages NFIP-insured property. A loss caused
by a flood in progress at the time an SFIP comes into effect may be subject to the
flood-in-progress exclusion. If the SFIP was effective prior to the date the flood in
progress began, coverage will be effective. A flood is in progress on the earlier of
either the date the community in which the NFIP-insured property is located first
experiences a flood as defined in the SFIP, or on the date of an event initiating a
flood that directly or indirectly affects areas downstream or in a floodway.
70. Is damage caused by a flood in progress covered?
If a policy is in effect on the date the flood in progress begins, damage caused
by the flood in progress is covered, subject to the terms of the SFIP. If a policy
is effective after the date the flood is in progress, damage caused by the flood in
progress most likely will not be covered. However, each NFIP claim is adjusted
individually and the cause of any loss, and any applicable limitations or exclusion
in the SFIP, is determined during the claims adjustment process.

On january 1, ace electronics bought a new cash register for $2,500. Ace plans to use the cash register for 4 years and then sell is for $200. If Ace uses straight-line depreciation expense for the 1st year ended December 31 equals________
Answer:
Depreciation expense = $575
Explanation:
According to International Accounting standards(IAS) 16 property plan and equipment (PPE), the cost of an asset is the purchase cost plus other costs of bringing it to the intended working conditions.
Annual depreciation = (Cost - Scrap Value)/ Number of years
Cost of asset = 2500
Scrap value - 200
Estimated useful life = 4
Annual depreciation = (2500 - 200)/4 = 575
Depreciation expense = $575
Prior to being banned in 2002 by the McCain-Feingold Act, unlimited monetary contributions that were earmarked for party-building expenses at the grassroots level or for generic party advertising were known as....
A) matching funds
B) soft money
C) hard money
D) support funds
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
Soft money can be defined as a money raised by party or committees that's not been regulated by the federal campaign finance. Such campaign contributions are not made within the federal law and thus are illegal to raise. These monetary contributions are used for party building activities such as electoral registration programmes. The origin of soft money dates back to the Watergate reforms.
In the given case, the monetary contributions were used for party-building expenses or generic party advertising. Thus this monetary contribution is known as soft money.
So, the correct answer is option B.
Which of the following costs do not vary with the amount of output a firm produces? a. average fixed costs b. fixed costs and average fixed costs c. marginal costs and average fixed costs d. fixed costs
Answer:
d. fixed costs
Explanation:
The fixed cost is the cost which does not change if there is a change in the level of production i.e if the production level is increased or decreased it the fixed cost would remain the same as it is previous before
Therefore according to the given situation, since the fixed does not vary with the amount of firm output
Hence, option d is correct
In market A, a 4% increase in price reduces quantity demanded by 2%. In market B, a 3% increase in price reduces quantity demanded by 4%. The price elasticity of demand in market A and market B are considered______ and ______, respectively. Group of answer choices
Answer:
Price elasticity of market A = Inelastic
Price elasticity of market B = Elastic
Explanation:
Elasticity in the case of market A.
Given the percentage change in demand = 2%
Percentage change in price = 4%
Elasticty of demand = %Change in demand / %change in price
= 2 / 4
= 0.5 (Inelastic)
Elasticity in the case of market B.
Given the percentage change in demand = 4%
Percentage change in price = 3%
Elasticty of demand = %Change in demand / %change in price
= 4 / 3
= 1.33 (elastic)
"Closed-loop" production seeks to integrate what is presently waste back into production. In an ideal situation, the waste of one firm becomes the resource of another, and such synergies can create eco-industrial parks. This principle is often referred to as:

Ed Stall is an investor who owns 1 share of YY industries and a put option on 1 share of YY. The exercise price of the put option is $100 and YY currently trades at $99. The option premium was $3. If the price of YY at expiration is $50, the value of Stall's position is:
Answer:
$100
Explanation:
The reason is that the minimum value that the buyer of the put option will have is its exercise price because if I have right to sell an asset with exercise price of $100 and the market value of the underlying asset goes below $100 say $90, then I will prefer exercising the option and will receive $100. But suppose if the market price of the underlying asset goes above exercise price and is say $110 then I will benefit by selling the product in the market by receiving $110 not by exercising the put option and receiving $100.
So we can see from the above scenario, the minimum price that the put option holder can get by exercising the put option is its exercise price, hence $100 is the right answer.

Services can be______because the real people who provide them may vary in their abilities and motivations, or even their moods, resulting in differences in perceived quality.
Answer:
Inconsistent.
Explanation:
Services can be inconsistent because the real people who provide them may vary in their abilities and motivations, or even their moods, resulting in differences in perceived quality.
In Business and customer relationship management, the consistency of a service is solely dependent on the individual saddled with the responsibility of providing the service.
For instance, if Staff X isn't happy about something or is depressed, the staff is most likely to act lukewarm or annoying towards the service takers, therefore making the service inconsistent in comparison with other staffs and days.

Is required in order for a jurisdiction to receive Federal assistance with mitigation initiatives.
The correct answer is C. Establishes the overall authority, roles, and functions performed during incidents.
Explanation:
Emergency operations plans are documents that officially define the response to emergency or important incidents such as fires, floodings, attacks, among others. These plans are quite specific and due to this, they establish supplies, roles, functions, and those involved in the response. Moreover, emergency operation plans are used by organizations to have an appropriate management of emergency and similar situations. According to this, the option that best describes this concept is C.
Shelley has been hired as a marketing specialist at a large, international firm. On Shelley's first day of work, she attends an orientation session. Which of the following is LEAST likely to be addressed during Shelley's orientation program?
A) organizational structure
B) company policies and rules
C) compensation and reward system
D) daily and weekly task requirements
Answer:
D) daily and weekly task requirements.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Shelley has been hired as a marketing specialist at a large, international firm. On Shelley's first day of work, she attends an orientation session.
In the orientation session, what new employees are most likely to be briefed or talked to about is the organizational structure, company policies and rules and compensation and reward system. In human resources management, it is important to get new employees acquainted with the essential informations, rules, regulations, and guidelines that exist in an organization.
Hence, daily and weekly task is least likely to be addressed during Shelley's orientation program because she's not likely to commence her duties on the first day and her responsibilities or roles would be introduced to her by her functional or line manager.
Q 7.37: Eric Hansen is a receiving clerk who has just been denied a raise. He has approached his subordinate, who is the new storeroom clerk, about diverting inventory to sell for personal gain. This example of the ________, which may lead to _________.
Answer:
Human element; collusion.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Eric Hansen is a receiving clerk who has just been denied a raise. He has approached his subordinate, who is the new storeroom clerk, about diverting inventory to sell for personal gain. This is an example of the human element, which may lead to collusion.

Under a just-in-time inventory system, a company can reduce the amount of working capital it needs to finance inventory, freeing capital for other uses and/or lowering the total capital requirements of the enterprise.
a) true
b) false
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Under a just-in-time inventory system, a company can reduce the amount of working capital it needs to finance inventory, freeing capital for other uses and/or lowering the total capital requirements of the enterprise.
In Business management, Just-in-time (JIT) is an inventory management method used by a company wherein goods, products, components, and labor are made available exactly when needed or just few hours before they are needed in the production process.
Basically, It is an inventory management system that companies use to reduce wastage to the barest minimum, thereby, freeing capital for other uses and/or lowering the total capital requirements of the enterprise.
Hence, just-in-time when used judiciously can help a company reduce the amount of working capital it needs to finance inventory management.

Answer: iii. A schedule prepared by the contractor after the project had fallen behind with adjustments that expedite the remainder of the project to ensure a timely finish
Explanation:
The recovery schedule is a method of recovering time by the contractor. Just like the progress schedule, it should be noted that the recovery schedule is the responsibility of a contactor.
Therefore, it is a schedule prepared by the contractor after the project had fallen behind with adjustments that expedite the remainder of the project to ensure a timely finish.
The costs of lead contamination have been estimated to be $1 billion for medical care of those sickened by lead, plumbing repairs, and reduced earnings of those affected by lead. This $1 billion can best be classified as:
Answer:
Social cost of market failure
Explanation:
Market failure is an economic situation in which an imperfection in the market mechanism prevents an optimal outcome.
The $1 billion cost of lead contamination intended for the medical care of those sickened by lead, plumbing repairs and reduced earnings of those affected is called social cost of market failure.
Whenever external benefits and costs exist, the market will not produce at the optimal outcome leading to social cost of market failure by an organization.
External costs are costs that are imposed without compensation on a third party.
