Answer:
A. Nonprogrammed; reflective; programmed; reactive
Explanation:
Programmed decisions are those which occur more frequently and are quickly executed, almost instinctly, without needing much of a thought process, by what we call the reactive system.
Nonprogrammed decisions are those that present unusual or new situations and require a deeper reflection and understanding of the issue. Those are processed via the reflective system in the brain.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. Nonprogrammed; reflective; programmed; reactive
Answer:
1. c.$124,000
2. e.$46,000
Explanation:
The Fuller company has issued two bonds with separate coupons. The liability for unredeemed bond at December 31, 2012 is $124,000.
The value of bond when issued is $720,000
Value of bond at expiration date is $300,000
720,000 / 300,000 = 2.4
2.4 * 190,000 = 456,000 / 3.67 years
= $124,000
Case corporation has issued bond with value 94 issued at par with 10% coupon rate.
Using the amortization bond table we get $46,000.
$(100000 / 94 ) * 10% = 106.38 * 5 years
= 5,319.20 * 8.64 amortizing rate
= $46,000
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.
