Answer:
B) Businesses can actually do very little in terms of social responsibility.
Explanation:
Milton Friedman is most famous for the defense of the Chicago School economics which is a neoclassical approach to macroeconomics. He favored free trade, smaller government and a slow but constant growth of the money supply. I personally disagree with neoclassical economists because they have the tendency to mess things up and time proves they are always wrong (that is a biased but positive statement). He was the father of monetarism, but if you look at his last two disciples, George Bush and George W. Bush, the outcome was not positive ⇒ 3 deep recessions in 3 presidential terms.
As a neoclassical economist, Friedman believed and argued in favor of the trickle down in economics. That means that if you allow the rich to get overwhelmingly rich, their riches will spill over to the rest of society. Not because they are good people that like to share their wealth, but because they need workers and employees to keep consuming goods and services in order to get the economy moving. Eventually the spilled over wealth should return to the top. So it is no wonder why he opposed corporate social responsibility, since wasting time and money in the community, employees or the environment was simply a waste of resources that could be used to increase stockholders' wealth.
I understand how theoretically this might work, but it takes the human factor out of the equation and expectations are extremely important in economics, that is why they always fail.
The answer to this question is: Quality
Answer: C) A successful firm of expert consultants seeks to increase its volume of business by reducing its fees, but its volume of business drops.
Explanation:
Mr. Fringe says that the more expensive a consultant is, the more they can be blamed. This means that the kor expensive a consultant is, the more they will be sought after in order for the company to blame them.
When a successful firm of consultant reduced their prices and became cheaper, less people wanted to hire them. This therefore supports the logic of Mr. Fringe as a lower cost led to the consultants being less sought after.
Answer:
Cash budget
Explanation:
A budget is a financial plan that calculates a firm's expectations and uses that information to allocate the expectations to specific needs of the firm, to ensure its efficient and smooth running over a given period of time.
A cash budget as seen above is a type of budget that projects a firm's expectations cash-wise (inflwo and outflow), shortages and surpluses during a given period (say one year or two years, etc.).
Cheers.
Answer:
The answer is $10,800
Explanation:
Straight line method of depreciation is:
Cost - residual value/number of useful life
Cost - $62,000
Residual value - $8,000
Number of years - 5years
=62,000 - 8,000/5
=57,000/5
$10,800.
Therefore, $10,800 will be charged every year.
