Answer: a. Controlling

Explanation:

The Controlling function in management is meant to ensure that employees in a company are acting in a manner that abides by the standards of the company or organization in question.

It works by managers ensuring that they check that employees are acting in the way they are to act and if they are not, corrective action must be meted out to stop the behavior.

The Secret Service had some embarrassing moments in 2015 with some agents being found drunk on a trip to Europe where they were assigned to President Obama's detail. Had supervisors been making sure that subordinates acted in a manner befitting of the secret service, the acts would have had a significantly less chance of happening.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Material A:

Purchase= 1,000 units

Purchase price= $2.1

Standard price= $2

Material B:

Purchase= 2,400 units

Purchase price= $2.8

Standard price= $3

<u>To calculate the total material price variance, we need to use the following formula on each material:</u>

<u></u>

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

<u>Material A:</u>

Direct material price variance= (2 -2.1)*1,000

Direct material price variance= $100 unfavorable

<u>Material B:</u>

Direct material price variance= (3 - 2.8)*2,400

Direct material price variance= $480 favorable

Total material price variance= -100 + 480

Total material price variance= $380 favorable

Suppose that a worker in Freedonia can produce either 6 units of corn or 2 units of wheat per year, and a worker in Sylvania can
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

a. 30 units of corn and 30 units of wheat.

Explanation:

In a two-product, two-country world, international trade leads to specialization. Each country will produce the product in which it has comparative advantage. In this case, Freedonia will produce only corn and Sylvania will produce only wheat. With all constant, the country will consume the same amount of that product, but the surplus will exchange it for the other product. Freedonia will use all its workers to produce corn, in a year they will produce 6*10= 60 units of corn. Sylvania will use the 10 workers to produce wheat, in a year they will produce 6*10=60 units of wheat.

But, Freedonia will consume the same amount of corn (30 units). Then, Freedonia have 30 available units to trade with Sylvania. And the same for Sylvania, they will consume the same amount of wheat (30 units) and so Sylvania will have 30 available units of wheat to trade with Freedonia.

If the price, for both goods, is the same, Ricardo´s theory predicts that total consumption in both countries will increase, then consumer welfare will increase. Freedonia will consume the same 30 units of corn, but the other 30 will be exchanged by 30 units of wheat. Consumers are better and happier. Freedonia will consume 20 units more of wheat than before without sacrifying units of corn.
