<u>Answer: </u>

<u>Explanation: </u>

Quality Timber Pty Ltd is a well-established logging company. With below-average performance, their packaging department is cons
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Quality Timber Pty Ltd

In this scenario, the performance norms are _below-average____ and cohesiveness is _ high____, so productivity is _low___.

Explanation:

It has been established that group norms influence individual behavior and group performance.  Performance Norms refer to how a person should work in a given group and what his or her output should be.

Cohesion, according to wikipedia.com, "can be more specifically defined as the tendency for a group to be in unity while working towards a goal or to satisfy the emotional needs of its members."  Employees of the packaging department tend to be enjoying so much group cohesiveness.  But, they need to break some habits to focus on achieving corporate goals by increasing their productivity.

According to Paul Krugman of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, "Productivity is commonly defined as a ratio between the output volume and the volume of inputs.  In other words, it measures how efficiently production inputs, such as labour and capital, are being used in an economy to produce a given level of output."  A rough assessment of the packaging department employees' performance shows low productivity, as they are "consistently behind schedule and take long lunch breaks, and frequently chat with co-workers," instead of concentrating on their jobs.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

The correct answer is $60,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Expenditure for Jan.1 = $334,000

Time period ( Jan.1 - Dec.31 ) = 12 months

So, average expenditure = $334,000

Similarly, Expenditure for Sep.1 = $498,000

Time period ( Sep.1 - Dec.31 ) = 4 months

So, average expenditure = $498,000 × 4÷12 = $166,000

Now, Expenditure for Dec.31 = $498,000

Time period ( Dec.31 - Dec.31 ) = 0 months

So, average expenditure = $498,000 × 0÷ 12 = 0

So, capitalized interest = ( average expenditure Jan.1 + average expenditure Sep.1 + average expenditure Dec.31) × 12%

= ($334,000 + $166,000 + $0) × 12%

= $500,000 × 12%

= $60,000

What are other ethical concerns that Stilton may be facing?
Agata [3.3K]

Complete Question:

James Stilton is the chief executive officer (CEO) of RightLiving, Inc., a company that buys life insurance policies at a discount from terminally ill persons and sells the policies to investors. RightLiving pays the terminally ill patients a percentage of the future death benefit (usually 65%) and then sells the policies to investors for 85% of the value of the future benefit. The patients receive the cash to use for medical and other expenses, and the investors are "guaranteed" a positive return on their investment. The difference between the purchase and sale prices is RightLiving's profit.

Stilton is aware that some sick patients may obtain insurance policies through fraud (by not revealing their illness on the insurance application). An insurance company that discovers such fraud will cancel the policy and refuse to pay. Stilton believes that most of the policies he has purchased are legitimate, but he knows that some are probably not.

Requirement:

What are other ethical concerns that Stilton may be facing?

Answer with Explanation:

The ethical concerns of Stilton are as under:

  • Should he tell the investors about the fraud about the policies before making sales?
  • What policies must be implemented so that the legitimate people can easily sell the policies and if not implemented it would not be fair for the RightLiving, Inc.
  • Stilton will also be facing ethical concerns because the business wishes that the customer dies early so that they can benefit from increased deaths of policy holders.
