When is it appropriate to use indirect rather than direct strategies when intervening with a guest?

1 answer:

7 0

It is most appropriate to make use of indirect strategies when intervening with a guest when the situation is now too sarcastic or when it seems that the joke is taking it too far. Simply drag the guest to the side if indirect strategies are not working and speak to the guest rationally.

A firm has 4 plants that produce widgets. Plants A, B, and C can each produce 100 widgets per day. Plant D can produce 50 widget

Answer:

A Widgets Firm

Minimization of Shipping Costs to 3 Customers from 4 Locations:

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Shipping Costs per unit Plant Customer

c. $7125

Plants Customers

Production 1 2 3 Total

Demand units 75 units 100 units 175 units 350 units

A 100 units $25 $35 $15

B 100 units $20 $30 $40

C 100 units $40 $35 $20

D 50 units $15 $20 $25

To minimize shipping costs:

Satisfy Customer 1's 75 units from B = $20 x 75 = $1,500

Satisfy Customer 2's 25 units from B = $30 x 25 = 750

Satisfy Customer 2's 25 units from C = $35 x 25 = 875

Satisfy Customer 2's 50 units from D = $20 x 50 = 1,000

Satisfy Customer 3's 100 units from A = $15 x 100 = 1,500

Satisfy Customer 3's 75 units from C = $20 x 75 = 1,500

Daily minimum shipping cost = $7,125

Minimizing the shipping cost to a location is not considered in isolation. The other locations must be considered. For example, customer 1's shipping cost would have been minimized to $1,250 instead of $1,500 by shipping D's 50 units and B's 25 units. But, this would have increased the shipping cost to customer 2 by $500 from $2,625 to $3,125. Whereas, the company lost $250 shipping to customer 1, it gained $500 shipping to customer 2, thereby making a net gain of $250, instead of net loss of $250.

If revenues exceed expenses for the accounting period, the retained earnings account: a. Will have a lower balance after closing

Sati [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": All of these answer choices are incorrect.

When revenues of a company exceed the expenses of a period, the firm has net income. Net income is reported as a credit entry. Thus, the retained earnings will have a credit balance prior to closing.

Suppose that in a month the price of movie rentals decreases from $3.25 to $3. At the same time, the quantity of movie rental

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

The initial price of movie rentals is $3.25.

The initial quantity is 100.

The price falls to $3.

This causes demand to rise to 120.

The price elasticity of demand a ratio of change in quantity demanded to change in price level.

The elasticity is calculated at -2.25, through the process given in images.

The price elasticity of demand here is greater than 1 which means it is elastic.

So, option a is the correct answer.

Suppose the government, in an effort to avoid an increase in the deficit, votes for a budget neutral tax cut policy. Assume the

mafiozo [28]

PART A:

The government has voted for budget neutral tax cut policy in order to avoid the enhancement in the deficit. Thereby, government spending will be reduced by an amount of $8 billion.

PART B:

The calculation for fall in GDP is as follows:

$\text { Change in } G D P=\frac{-M P C}{1-M P C}$

Multiply with change in government expenditure,

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{1-0.85} \rightarrow \text { multiply with }(-8)=-53.33 \text { billion }$

Thus, if the government expense is reduced by $8 billion then fall in GDP is by $53.33 billion

EFFECT ON GDP DUE TO REDUCTION OF TAX:

$\text { Change in taxes }=\frac{-M P C}{1-M P C}$

Multiply with change in tax,

$\Rightarrow \frac{-0.85}{1-0.85} \rightarrow \text { multiply with }(-8)=45.33 \text { million }$

Thus, when the taxes are reduced by $8 billion, then GDP shows an increase by $45.33 billion.

Therefore, change in equilibrium level of real GDP = -$8 billion ( -53.33 billion + 45.33 billion).

Which of the following statements concerning the cash budget is CORRECT? a. Depreciation expense is not explicitly included, but

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

a. Depreciation expense is not explicitly included, but depreciation's effects are reflected in the estimated tax payments.

Explanation:

The cash budget is the budget that represents the receipts and payment of transactions held in cash

It includes the interest and dividend payment as it shows the outflow of cash if payment is made in cash

Moreover, it also affects the DSO and includes cash inflows with related to the long term sources such as issuance of bonds

But as we know that the depreciation is a non cash expense so it not much included but its effects are projected in the payment of tax
