Answer:
At one time, the centrally planned economy of China encouraged farmers to produce iron in their backyards, rather than have factories make iron. This proved unsuccessful, since most of the farmers' iron was of poor quality. Why do you think this approach was unsuccessful? How could this experiment become a success in a free market economy?
The reason why the approach whereby farmers make iron in their backyard could not work out is as a result of not being inclined in that market as they are only skilled in agriculture, also they do not understand the rhetorics of the business.
The experiment would be a success in a free market as anyone is allowed to sell such product, this gives room for competition and helps to price reduction which is good for the consumers, also it would help in improvement of such product's quality because of competition involved
Explanation:
The Marine Corps refer to the United States Marines Corps, a branch of the U.S. Army who is responsible for conducting expedition and amphibious operations with multiple branches of the military, which includes the Navy, Army, and the Air Force.

Answer:
5341288
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Volume of the living quarters = 213 cubic feet
Now,
The dimensions of the US dollar bills are
width = 2.61 inches
Length = 6.14 inches
Thickness = 0.0043 inches
Thus,
Volume of a single dollar bill = 2.61 × 6.14 × 0.0043
= 0.06890922 cubic inches
Also,
Volume of quarter in cubic inches = 213 × 12³
[ ∵ 1 ft = 12 inches ; 1 ft³ = 12³ cubic inches]
Thus,
Volume of quarter in cubic inches = 368064 cubic inches.
Thus,
Number of dollar bills that can fit in there
= [ Volume of quarter in cubic inches ] ÷ Volume of a single dollar bill
= 368064 ÷ 0.06890922
= 5341288.15 ≈ 5341288
Answer:
The calculation will be more accurate, because the base year is the oldest.
CPI is calculated as
(P_n / P_base - 1)*100
as:
P_n prices at time n
The mathematical reason why it is better to take the oldest year is that % growth works better

Explanation:
World class performance measures can be used in different functional areas, for example International Organization for Standardization (ISO) norms apply to all the functional areas of a company:
- ISO 9000 - Quality Management
- ISO 27000 - Information Security Management Systems
- ISO 14000 – Environmental Management
- ISO 31000 - Risk Management
-
ISO 50001 - Energy Management
- ISO 26000 - Social Responsibility
- ISO 28000: 2007 – Specifications for Security Management Systems for the Supply Chain
-
ISO 37001: 2016 Anti-Bribery Management Systems
- ISO 45001 – Occupational Health and Safety
- ISO 22000 – Food Management Systems
Other types of world class performance measures that are not as established and recognized as ISO norms, but are gaining momentum in modern management like World Class Manufacturing (WCM) framework focus on four main areas:
- Manufacturing competitive products: measure quality performance
- Manufacturing product mix and volume: measure cost performance
- Short lead-times and make-to-order: measure delivery performance
- New product introductions: measure flexibility performance
