Answer:

It's not a wise decision.

Explanation:

It's not the correct call, because costs for rent are always the same, since they have a contract. So, lower prices is gonna get to the Company A a poor profitability in the future. If the do it and they get more costumers, the problem isn't solved, because once they need to rise prices, costumers are gonna leave at the same time.

A regional automobile dealership sent out fliers to prospective customers indicating that they had already won one of three diff
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

the requirements are missing, so I looked for a similar question.

<em>a. How many fliers do you think the automobile dealership sent​ out? </em>

<em> b. Using your answer to​ (a) and the probabilities listed on the​ flier, what is the expected value of the prize won by a prospective customer receiving a​ flier? </em>

<em> c. Using your answer to​ (a) and the probabilities listed on the​ flier, what is the standard deviation of the value of the prize won by a prospective customer receiving a​ flier?</em>

a) the total fliers sent out = 31,246 + 1 + 1 = 31,248

b) expected value = [(1 x $28,000) + (1 x $100) + (31,246 x $5)] / 31,248 = $5.90

c) σ² = [($28,000 - $5.90)² x 1] + [($100 - $5.90)² x 1] + [($5 - $5.90)² x 31,246] / 31,248 = ($783,669,634.80 + $8,854.81 + $25,309.26) / 31,248 = $25,080.13

σ = √$25,080.13 = $158.37

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

d. It has high levels of job embeddedness.

Explanation:

Job embeddedness as described and originated by Mitchell et al(and colleagues) are the various factors that influence or bring about job retention or simply keeps one at a particular job or an organization hence reducing job turnover. Under job embeddedness, an employee is likely to stay in an organization and not leave if he feels a connection to it which could be in terms of his connection to his team or colleagues in the organization or other things outside the organization like family. Job embeddness was meant to improve on traditional models of job turnover that only incorporated such factors as job satisfaction, job alternatives and employers commitments. A high level of job embeddedness is likely in Elmer Inc because there is likely to be alot more connection amongst staff as the work environment makes this very much possible.
