Answer:

b. As the population in the United States ages, fewer workers have the physical ability to work in the industry.
d. Due to global warming, working conditions on farms have become undesirable for more and more people.
e. The adoption of strict immigration laws reduces the number of legal and illegal immigrants in the United States.
h. New machinery is replacing workers in the harvesting of crops.

Explanation:

With workers getting older and being unable to be as productive as they used to be, they will have to drop out of industries that require physical strength including farming. This will therefore reduce people working in agriculture.

With global warming having made working in the fields much more harsh, people are avoiding careers that would keep them outdoors including farming which has led to a drop in the labor supply for agriculture.

A significant portion of workers in agriculture are immigrants so when immigration laws limit the number of immigrants coming in, labor supply in agriculture will reduce.

New machinery reduces the need for workers in agriculture so the more they are bought, the less workers are needed. This will therefore directly reduce the number of people working in agriculture.

Answer:

$600 unfavorable

Explanation:

The budgeted cost of producing 14,000 units at $5.50 per unit and with fixed costs of $19,400 is:

$B = 14,000*5.50 + 19,400\\B= \$96,400$

The variance is given by subtracting the budgeted cost by the actual cost ($97,000):

$V= \$96,400 - \$97,000\\V= -\$600$

Since the variance is negative, the variance is unfavorable

Answer:

Carrying and using a high-end credit card like an American Express Centurion Card would satisfy needs at what level in the Maslow hierarchy of needs?

Esteem level.

Explanation:

Maslow hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology that comprises five levels of needs that are represented in a pyramid. The needs that are lower in the pyramid are fundamental needs that have to be satisfied before the needs in the higher levels can be satisfied. The needs lower down in the pyramid are mostly physical needs like food, shelter and finances while the needs higher up in the pyramid tend to focus more in improving the quality of life of a person. They include things like; safety, love, physiological needs and self actualization.

The needs in a five-stage model can be categorized into two groups; deficiency needs and growth needs. The first four levels from the bottom can be referred to as deficiency needs while the top most level is defined as a growth need. Deficiency needs are needs that arise due to deprivation while growth needs don't come from a lack of something but a strong desire to become better. The five categories of needs are; physiological, safety, love and belonging, esteem and self actualization.

In our case, someone carrying a high-end credit card is someone who does that out of prestige and thus is most likely in the esteem level in the Maslow hierarchy.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a. 10,000 units

Explanation:

The computations of units completed are shown below:

= Beginning work in process units + units started - closing work in process units

= 3,000 units + 11,000 units - 4,000 units

= 10,000 units

For this question, we ignored the equivalent units as the question has asked about the completed units only

So, all other information is irrelevant
