Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

If I had to take responsibility for advertising job for a company, there would be two possible methods that I use:

The first option is to post the job advertisement on social network or the website of the company. This can help approach the candidates who have already known about the company and concerned about the job opportunity here.

The second choice is to cooperate with a headhunter agency. By this method, the process that I have to be in charge of would be shorter, saving the time. In addition, headhunter companies have huge data of candidates and can approach much more than a company or a recruiter could do. They also have experience in screening the CV, interview to look for the most suitable candidates.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

e. A, 6,000; B, 6,000.

Explanation:

At the beginning of the process Materials A are added. Therefore it won't matter if the process is 80% or less/more is complete, the materials A have already been added and would be equivalent to the ending work-in-process inventory i.e. 6,000 units.

Materials B are added when the units are 75% complete. Since the ending work-in-process are 80% complete, then this means that the Materials B equivalent to 6,000 units have already been added to the ending inventory.

Hence, both materials A and B have been added to the ending work-in-process inventory for 6,000 units. Therefore, option E is correct.
