Answer:
The answer is both: B) organizational change or competition over resources
Explanation:
Organizational change usually takes place due to external or internal pressures. In this specific case, Candace´s business is not doing well, probably her sales are down. We don´t know the reason why, I can guess probably more competition, but we know she must act fast.
Money is the most scarce resource of all. So if money is not flowing in like Candace would expect she must be able to make difficult decisions. Laying off a worker (out of how many?) is usually seen as a bad sign for the rest of the employees. Reducing labor days (Sundays) will probably also affect the rest of the employees negatively because they will simply work less hours and get paid less.
But the bottom line is Candace as the owner (probably also the manager) has to make the decisions that are necessary for her business to continue. It would always be worst for everyone involved (Candace and her employees) if they go out of business. That way everyone loses.
At this point Candace will need to communicate with her employees and let them know how bad the situation is and the necessary steps to be taken. Her actions will be unpopular but its her job to convince her employees that its for everyone´s best interest. Well, for everyone except the one employee already fired. Leaders must show up in difficult times and make tough choices.
On of the very basic measures, Travis must do in order to avoid workplace hazards is to perform safety precautions before working. These safety precautions basically involve the use of safety goggles. The safety goggles would provide protection of the eye against chemicals that might spill.
Answer: $80
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.
If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.
The opportunity cost of writing a term paper is $80 that she values by going out with a friend and it is the higher cost alternative.
Answer:
Accounting costs $145,000
Implicit costs $75,000
Opportunity costs $220,000
Explanation:
What her accounting cost will be during the first year of operation.
Based on the information given we were told that the annual overhead costs and operating expenses amounted to the amount of $145,000 which means that the amount of $145,000 will be the ACCOUNTING COSTS
Her IMPLICIT COSTS will be the amount of $75,000 which is the amount she earn in her current job per year.
Her OPPORTUNITY COSTS be the addition of both her Her accounting cost and implicit costs
Hence,
Opportunity cost=$145,000+$75,000
Opportunity cost=$220,000
Answer:
Rare
Explanation:
VRIO Analysis is an analytical technique for the evaluation of company's resources and thus the competitive advantage. VRIO comes from the initials of the evaluation dimensions: Value, Rareness, Imitability, Organization.
A resource is rare simply if it is not widely possessed by other competitors. When a firm has valuable resources that are rare in the industry, they are in a position of competitive advantage over firms that do not have the resource.
