Answer:
The correct answer is: The second worker.
Explanation:
Productivity is an economic term describing the relationship between outputs as compared to inputs needed to produce those outputs. It is a measure of efficiency. Typically inputs are raw materials, labor, and capital assets. Outputs are generally expressed as either revenue or total units of finished goods.
In the example, a form to measure each worker's productivity is comparing how many plastic labels they can place per hour. Thus:
- Worker 1: <em>1000 per 1/2 hour (30 minutes)
</em>
- Worker 1: <em>2000 per 1 hour </em>
- Worker 2: <em>850 per 1/3 hour (20 minutes)</em>
- Worker 2: <em>2550 per 1 hour
</em>
Then, the second worker is more productive.
Answer: Apportionment
Explanation: Apportionment is also known as analogous estimating which is used when projects closely follow past projects in features and costs. As a result, in addition to good historical data, estimates regarding project feature, cost and duration can be made quickly, with little effort and reasonable accuracy to various segments of the current project. The method of apportionment is very common in projects that are relatively standard, but with little variation or customisation.
Answer:
YTM is 4.94%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity is the return on the bond throughout the bond's tenure and can be computed using rate function in excel as shown below.
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupons the bond has left to pay(23 years*2)
pmt is the semiannual coupon of the bond=$1000*5.3%*6/12=26.5
pv is the curren price=$1000*105%=$1050
fv is the face value of the bond
=rate(46,26.5,-1050,1000)=2.47%
2.47% is the semiannual yield
annual yield=2.47%
*2=4.94%
Answer:
True - Contracts that cannot be completed in less than one Year must be written
Explanation:
The extract from the scenario that requires focus for the answer to the question is that ''<u>In 2006 Mann and Harris were asked by HIS to work on another conversion of an apartment building</u> known as Park West. For this project Mann and Harris were again <u>orally promised </u>a bonus (above their salary) using the formula similar to the Windsor Park conversion.<u> It was understood that this project would also require two or three years to complete.</u>''
Under statute of frauds, it is required that contracts that will last for more than 1 year should be written to be enforceable.
<u>At the point where Mann and Harris were asked to perform another construction of apartment that would take up to two or three years to complete, they ought to have requested that the contract be in writing.</u>
His had taken undue advantage of the knowledge of the Law and refused to them the bonus, yet in the eyes of the Law, according to statute of frauds, he cannot be wrong.
