Answer: collectivism

Complete Question:

Cedric, a brand manager, transferred from the united States to japan He discovered that although people in the United States highly valued individualism, people in Japan expect individuals to conform to group expectations. Cedric concluded that Japan places more of an emphasis on:

Explanation: Collectivism values the group over individuals belonging to the group. In cultures where collectivism is the norm, individuals tend to want to conform to the group expectations. Also, it is common for individuals in collectivist societies to define themselves as belonging to a group than as individuals so groups are a way of identifying themselves.  

While individualism values individuals's right and uniqueness, collectivism does not  but sees value in maintaining the cohesion in a group, which in turn promotes conformity.

A recent income statement of McClennon Corporation reported the following data:
arsen [322]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

The number of units of output sold is 8,000 .

The sales revenue is $9,600,000 .

The variable costs are $6,000,000 .

The fixed costs are $2,600,000.

The price of the product

= \frac{Sales\ Revenue}{Q}

= \frac{9,600,000}{8,000}

= $1,200

The average variable cost is

= \frac{TVC}{Q}

= \frac{6,000,000}{8,000}

= $750

Profit =  TR - TC

Profit = Price\ \times\ Q - (AVC\ \times\ Q )\ +\ TFC)

$1,270,000 = $1,200Q - $750Q - $2,600,000

$3,870,000 = $450Q

Q = \frac{3,870,000}{450}

Q = 8,600 units

Given an optimal capital structure that is 50% debt and 50% common stock, calculate the weighted average cost of capital for the
klemol [59]

Answer:

As the WACC is more than 7.5%, option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital or WACC is the cost of a firm's capital structure. To calculate the WACC, we multiply the weight of each component of the capital structure by the cost of that component. The components of capital structure can be one or all of the following namely debt, preferred stock and common stock.

The formula for WACC is,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • r represents the cost of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common stock respectively

First we need to determine the cost of debt and equity for this firm.

We use the market value of debt and thus, rate for the calculation of WACC.

The cost of debt will be its yield to maturity as it is the current rate or cost. Thus, rD will be 6%.

The cost of equity can be determined using the constant growth model of DDM 's formula for prcie today.

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

80 = 5 * (1+0.05) / (r - 0.05)

80 * (r - 0.05) = 5.25

80r - 4 = 5.25

80r = 5.25 + 4

r = 9.25 / 80

r = 0.115625 or 11.5625%

WACC = 0.5 * 0.06 * (1-0.3)  +  0.5 * 0.115625

WACC = 0.0788125 or 7.88125%

As the WACC is more than 7.5%, option D is the correct answer.

Mila [183]

Answer:

Assume that a context switch takes T time. Suggest an upper bound (in terms of T) for holding a spinlock. If the spinlock is held for any longer, a mutex lock (where waiting threads are put to sleep) is a better alternative.

Explanation:

The top limit is to be twice the value of (2xT). Holding the spinlock for a longer time, it will be necessary to put the thread to sleep and get a context switch, so one process awakes the sleeping thread  without the need of a second context switch.

In process synchronization, cooperating process can affect or be affected by other processes  executing in the system,  either directly share a  logical address space, both code and data, or be allowed to share data  only through files or messages, although concurrent access to shared data may result in  data inconsistency. But there are several mechanisms  to help the orderly execution of cooperating processes that share a logical  address space, so that data consistency is kept.

svp [43]

The agency's position is that Bob had already signed a contract, and that the contract included a placement fee due to the fact that Bob was able to find this job through the agency. On the other hand, the position that Bob would most likely argue is that he is a minor. As a minor, Bob is allowed to disaffirm his contract. Therefore, Bob is likely to win in this dispute.
