Answer:

Total production= 8,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Forecast sales for the year= 48,000 units

Desired ending inventory= 3 months of sales

Beginning inventory= 8,000 units.

First, we need to determine the number of units sold each month:

Units sold for a month= 48,000/12= 4,000 units

Now, we can determine the production for each month:

Sales a month= 4,000

Desired ending inventory= 4,000*3= 12,000

Beginning inventory= (8,000)

Total production= 8,000 units

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

1. What environmental, social, and political risks might arise in supply chain operations in Haiti?

An enviromental risk is another earthquake. Haiti is a very seismic country, and infraestructure quality is low: it can easily crumble down in the even of a strong earthquake (unlike other highly seismic countries with high quality infraestructure, for example: Japan).

A social risk is the possiblity of workers' revolts. The workers may feel exploited, or not at ease within the company, and decided to revolt. Haiti is a violent country, and the revolt could easily become a full-scale conflict that would result in the closing of most, of all of the firms associated with the supply chain.

A political risk is the possibility of property seizure by the government. Haiti does not rank high in government stability, judicial independence, or property rights protections. A new government could become authoritarian, and decide to seize the firms associated with the supply chain.

2. What are the foreseeable costs and benefits from supply chain operations in Haiti?

Low labor costs: the average per capita income in Haiti is $450, and the poverty rate is over 50%, while the underemployment rate is over 60%. This means that people are willing to work, and will work for very low wages, meaning lower costs accross the supply chain.

Untapped market: Even if Haiti is a very poor country, for the same reason it has a great potential to grow, since poor, developing countries tend to grow faster than advanced nations. If the economy of Haitin turns upwards, the firms along the supply chain will likely benefit from being the first in the new market.

3. How could you ensure that your company’s involvement would play a beneficial role in Haiti’s economic recovery?

Paying fair wages, following the country's laws, avoiding illegal practices such as bribing, and putting aside some of the company's income for social contributions such as donations to schools and hospitals (corporate social responsability).

Applegate is in litigation with Magnifium over a contract breach. Applegate has been approached by a former janitor for Magnifiu
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Applegate cannot use the janitor's statement in the trial since the janitor was not directly involved in the work that was being discussed in the meeting. At most, Applegate can try to use some of the information to investigate further about the issue by its own.

Explanation:

The janitor could be considered a hearsay witness, but courts usually limit their testimonies depending on whether its content is admissible or not. The court and Magnifium's lawyers would examine the perception of the witness, his recollection of the events, how he communicated those events to the other party involved in the case, and most importantly the truthfulness of the witness testimony.

The janitor doesn't have a solid position in any of the possible challenges, e.g. he might be mad for being fired and is making up the story, he misinterpreted what he heard because he didn't know what they were talking about, Applegate reached the witness and offered him money to testify, his testimony may have some gray areas or may not be complete. There are simply too many possible objections that can eliminate his testimony and leave Applegate in a worse position.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is The global village.

Explanation:

The term "global village" is conceived as the impact that communications have within socio-cultural aspects. This phenomenon goes hand in hand with the spread of telecommunications and the internet, which allows access to information to be carried out at any place and time desired. In this way, ideas and events that occur within another geographical space can be conceived as their own, which directly influences the perception of people as if they lived in a remote place.

Century Real Estate’s primary broker is John Kerr. John is licensed as the broker of that company and he is licensed as a broker
fomenos

Answer:

The broker is doing two different jobs; so it is okay to have two different licenses.

Explanation:

In this case, since the broker is doing two different jobs then it is okay for him to have two different licenses. In a hypothetical case that the individual Broker was doing the same job role for two different companies then that would be considered a form of conflict of interest and may cause problems with both firms in the future. Since this is not the case, then he should not have any problem.
