Answer:

The number of laborers employed by the plant is 120 laborers

Explanation:

According to given data Annual output = 57600 water heaters.

So the output per month = 57,600 / 12 months = 4,800 water heaters

Each labor works 160 hours per month

Suppose ,there are x number of laborers employed by the plant. So,x number of laborer will work 160x hours per month. So the labor input = 160x per month

Labor productivity = 0.25

Labor productivity = Output / Labor input

0.25 = 4800 / 160x

25/100 = 4800/160x

160x = (4800 X 100) / 25

160x = 19200

x = 19200/160

x = 120

Therefore, the number of laborers employed by the plant is 120 laborers

Answer:

  • D (Mia realized that Jason was being overpaid) relates to Equity Theory.
  • B (Offering range of rewards) relates to Expectancy Theory.
  • A (Identifying causes of dissatisfaction) relates to Two Factor Theory.
  • C (Offering trips) relates to The Porter-Lawler Model.

Equity Theory: Equity theory says that employees are motivated by the amount of fair treatment they are getting in the company.

For example: A employee would be satisfied, if he is paid equal to the other employee, but will be dissatisfied if the other is overpaid despite the fact that both have the same position and qualification.

Expectancy Theory: It suggests that employees are motivated by the value of the rewards, the more the value will the more they will be motivated to work.

For example: Employee knows the worth of their own effort, and the reward they will get against those efforts should be worth it.

Two Factor Theory: Suggested by Hezberg, there are factors of satisfaction and dissatisfaction, he categorized them as, <em>Hygiene factors and Motivation factors. </em>So, it's necessary to identify them and fix them.

The porter - Lawler Model: It suggests that the motivation is caused by rewards.

For example: Company is offering high rewards which will increase the motivation of the employees.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Option C: 8.44 times

Explanation:

Quick ratio(also called as acid test ratio) is the indicator of a company's liquidity position at a very short period which only considers the most liquid assets and ignores Inventory & other assets which cannot be realised immediately.

As we know that Quick Ratio = [Current Assets - Inventory - Prepaid Assets] / Current Liabilities

2.00 = $79,000 - Inventory - 0] / $27,650

=> Inventory = $23,700‬

Inventory turnover ratio gives us the number of times the company sells and replaces its inventory during the period.

Annual Sales = $200,000

Inventory Turnover Ratio = Sales / Average Inventory

=> $200,000 / $23,700 => 8.44 times
