Whenever there is an errand to run around lunchtime, Abdul always volunteers. His boss thinks this is because Abdul is a highly

motivated, ambitious worker, but in fact something quite different is happening: Abdul has a crush on a young woman from the same office complex who always eats her lunch in the courtyard, so those lunchtime errands give him a chance to see her and, if he is lucky, talk to her. The boss is subject to the _____________.

Answer:

Fundamental attribution error.

Explanation:

Fundamental attribution error refers to people's cognitive prejudiced in assuming that the behavior of an individual relies on what kind of person he is instead of on the social and environmental variables that determine that person. It refers to the tendency to describe the conduct of someone based on internal factors, such as personality and to underestimate the impact external factors, such as situational factors, have on actions of the person concerned. As per the question, underestimating the environmental factors to explain Abdul's behavior reflects the fundamental attribution error of his boss.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

48

Explanation:

Employee turnover is the rate at which employees leave a company, whether voluntary or involuntary.

In this company, 20 percent of employees leave every year.

If the company intends to have 40 more workers, it should plan to hire the 40 plus an extra 20 percent.

The company should hire 40 plus 20% of 40

=40 + (20/100 x 40)

=40 +(0.2 x40)

=40 +8

=48

The company should hire 48 workers

It is reasonable to state that one object has twice as much of the attribute property when it has a score of 60 and the other ob
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Ratio Scale

Explanation:

A ration scale of measurement is one that has equal units of measurement, and has an absolute value of zero. Measurements below the zero point on the scale is not possible. for example in the measurement of height in meters, the lowest measurement possible is 0 meter, a measurement of - 1 meter will make no mathematical sense. In this example, if a score of 60 is said to have twice as much attributes than a score of 30, it means that this attributes are measured from a reference zero point, because truly, 60 is twice as much as 30, from a zero point on a scale.

The other scales of measurements include;

nominal scale of measurement; which contains mainly categorical data and is mainly used in form of tags rather than showing magnitude or intervals. Example is grouping a group of adults into married, divorced or single.

Ordinal scale; this scale shows hierarchical series or ordered series, but does not show intervals between the elements. example is in classifying the positions of participants in a race as first, second or third etc. There is an ordering, as the first position is on top of the list, but it will now make sense to say the distance between the attribute of first to third position is the same as the distance between the attributes between third and fifth position, as there is no scale.

Interval scale; this scale of measurement does not have a limit zero value which represents the least possible point on a scale, but the intervals between different units on the scale can be compared logically. Example is the measurement of temperature using the Fahrenheit scale, where the temperature can go as low as - 20°F, below the zero point, and a distance of 3°F to 5°F can be said to be equal to a distance of 10°F to 12°F.

Star Company has entered into a 3-year lease agreement with Bell Corp. (lessor) for the use of 10 new commercial copy machines.
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Operating lease

Explanation:

An operating lease is basically a lease contract that allows the lessee to use the assets but it doesn't transfer any ownership rights. It is like renting a house, you can use it as long as pay the rent, but the house isn't yours. Operating leases are not included in the balance sheet, while financial leases are.

In this case, Star Company may use the copy machines but it must return them in three years.

Answer:

$680,000

Since Playa Company owns 90% of Seaside Corporation, it is considered Seaside's parent company and it must include all of Seaside's assets when it presents its consolidated balance sheet.

Total net assets reported = $480,000 (Playa's net assets at book value) + $200,000 (Seaside's net assets) = $680,000
