olganol [36]

Answer:

B. Herbania is technologically superior to Duckistan in producing civilian goods.

Explanation:

Duckistan Production Possibilities

                            A    B    C    D    E

Civilian Goods    20  18   14    8    0

Military Goods     0     1    2     3    4

opportunity cost  -     ¹/₁₈  ¹/₇  ³/₈   4     civilian goods

opportunity cost  20  18   7   2.7   -     military goods

Herbania Production Possibilities

                            A    B    C    D    E

Civilian Goods    40  36  26   14   0

Military Goods     0    1     2     3    4

opportunity cost  -    ¹/₃₆  ¹/₁₃  ³/₁₄  4     civilian goods

opportunity cost  40 36   13  4.7   -     military goods

Herbania has an absolute advantage in the production of civilian goods. Since it also has a lower opportunity cost of producing civilian goods, therefore, it also has a comparative advantage at producing civilian goods. Assuming that resources are equal in both countries, then we can assume that Herbania is technologically superior in the production of civilian goods.

Dukistan has a lower opportunity cost of producing military goods, therefore, it has a comparative advantage at producing military goods.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

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.

Explanation:

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.
