Answer:

The decision that is not relevant to Andrew is:

b. Cost of the old house.

Explanation:

a) The cost of the old house ($160,000) is not relevant to Andrew decision challenges.  It is a sunk or past cost.  Past costs are not relevant because they do not make a difference in the decision or the alternative to choose.  Since Andrew will be impacted by the driving distance to work from his new house, the market value of the old house, and the cost of the new house, these are relevant in Andrew's decision.

A. A call center is using the metric of average time per call when rewarding employees In order to keep their average time low,
taurus [48]

Answer:

The obvious negative consequence of the two examples is that the customer will not be satisfied, while the consequence of the third is the unethical damage done to the employees. In the first example, customer care agents are not focusing on the actual problem, but rather the time invested in handling a call, which is not the crucial KPI.

a. This example could be modified by creating a new KPI, which is not time related. A better KPI would be the <u>number of satisfied customers</u> after reporting a problem. Time should be taken into consideration as a limit when certain complaints take too much time.

b. In this example, the KPI should be sales revenue, not volume. They should focus on enhancing the benefits of products rather than giving large discounts straight ahead. Also, trying to cross-sell to customers even when it is irrelevant (and bothersome) can negatively influence the long-term customer relationship.

c. This is vastly unethical practice to use the low number of injuries as a means of productivity. There are plenty of other more relevant KPIs for bonus eligibility such as the number of produced items in a day, punctuality, manager reference etc. It is understandable that a company wishes to minimize the injuries (as it is a downtime for a worker and reduces overall productivity), but it is not the best way.

Consider the following misperceptions model of the economy. AD: Y = 600 + 10(M/P) SRAS: Y equals top enclose Y plus P minus P t
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Consider the following misperceptions model of the economy. AD: Y =600 + 10(M/P) SRAS: Y=Y +P - pe Okun's Law: (Y - Ý )/Y = - 2ệu - 4) Let 7 =750, ū=0.05, M =600, and pe =40. a. b. What is the price level? (2%) Suppose there is an unanticipated increase in the nominal money supply to 800. What is the short-run equilibrium level of output, the unemployment rate, and the price level? (3%) When price expectations adjust fully, what is the price level? (3%) C.

Explanation:

A) from SRAS : Y = 750+P-40  

Y = 710+P

From AD: Y = 600+ 10*600/P

Y = 600 + 6000/P

So solving two eqn

710+P = 600+6000/P

110 + P = 6000/P

P* = 40

Y* = 150

b) now M = 800

So new AD :

Y = 600+8000/P

So, as Y = 710+P

So at eqm

710+P = 600+8000/P

110+P = 8000/P

P' = 50

Y' = 710+50 = 760

from Okun law

(760-750)/750 = -2(u - .05)

1/75 = -2u + .1

2u = .0867

u = .0433

c) when price expectations adjust,then

Y = Y_bar = 750 : potential GDP

SRAS shifts upwards

So from AD:

750=600+10*800/P

P = 800/15

= 53.33

the Net Sales Revenues less the Cost of Goods Sold.

to arrive at operating income.
