The question is incomplete:
You are the new manager in an Indian office. You ask one of your supervisors to move a desk and place it in another corner of the office. The next day you notice it has not yet been done. Why?
-The supervisor was offended you asked him/her and refused to do anything about it
-The supervisor could not find a labourer to move it and would not do so him/herself
-Because things get done slowly in India
Answer:
-The supervisor could not find a labourer to move it and would not do so him/herself
Explanation:
India is a society with a high power distance. This means that there is hierarchy, inequality and employees expect directions. Also, decisions tend to be centralized and people in high positions expect privileges and a certain status. Because of that, in this situation the reason for not moving the desk from the options given is that the supervisor could not find a labourer to move it and would not do so him/herself as he/she considers that it is not part of the job as he/she has a higher position that doesn't involve to do that.
The other options are not right as the supervisor would not be offended a this is a culture in which people expect to receive orders and it is not related to things getting done slowly there.
Answer:
The total corporate value of the firm is $3,000,000
Explanation:
The total corporate value of the firm is computed as:
Total corporate value = FCF1 / (average cost of capital - Growth rate)
Where
FCF1 is $150,000
Growth rate is 6.5%
average cost of capital is 11.5%
Putting the values :
= $150,000 / (11.5% - 6.5%)
= $150,000 / 5%
= $3,000,000
Answer:
both
- United Continental with a capital expenditure of 60.68%
- Southwest Airlines with a capital expenditure of 51.38%
Explanation:
Since United Continental's purchases of Boeing planes represent over 60% of their capital expenditures, this means that Boeing had to be the primary plane supplier. Even if the company purchased planes form other manufacturer, their purchases would not even be 40% of the company's purchases.
The same applies to Southwest Airlines, even though the purchases from Boeing are a little lower, they are still over 51%. This means the company could not have spent more money on purchasing planes from another company. The maximum purchase from another airplane manufacturer would have been less than 49% at most.
Besides the previous analysis, you must also consider that the company spends money on things besides airplanes, e.g. new training facilities, equipment, computer software, other vehicles, etc.
