Suppose that a worker in Caninia can produce either 2 blankets or 8 meals per day, and a worker in Felinia can produce either 5

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

15 blankets; 35 meals

Explanation:

First, we compute Opportunity Cost (OC).

In Caninia,

OC of blanket = 8/2 = 4 meals

OC of meals = 2/8 = 0.25 blanket

In Felinia,

OC of blanket = 1/5 = 0.2 meals

OC of meals = 5/1 = 5 blanket

Since Felinia can produce blankets at lower OC (0.2 < 4), so

Felinia has comparative advantage and specializing in blankets.

Total blankets produced with trade = 5 x 10

= 50

Since Caninia can produce meals at lower OC (0.25 < 5), so

Caninia has comparative advantage and specializing in meals.

Total meals produced with trade = 8 x 10

= 80

After trade,

Total blankets produced = 10 + 25

= 35

Decrease in blanket output = 50 - 35

= 15

Total meals produced = 40 + 5

= 45

Decrease in meals output = 80 - 45

= 35

erica [24]

Answer:

(I)

b. Use the reasons-before-refusal plan.

(II)

a. Keep the refusal respectful, sensitive, and upbeat.

b. Disclose all reasons for the refusal.

d. Provide alternatives that encourage the customer to continue business with you.

Explanation:

In the first case, the best strategy to adopt is that of presenting the "reasons-before-refusal" plan. This means that before conveying a negative message to the client, you explain the reasons of why this message necessarily has to be like that. By reading the reasons first, the customer will be more likely to agree with your assessment of the situation.

In the second example, these are all strategies that you can use to ensure that the letter you are writing is kind and appropriate. In this letter, it is important to be respectful, sensitive and upbeat in order for the customer to know that you are taking his claim seriously. Moreover, you should be able to disclose all the reasons for the refusal so that the person is well-informed of the situation. Finally, you should be able to provide alternatives to the customer, as this might allow him to continue having business with you.

To automate one of its production processes, the Milwaukee Corporation bought three flexible manufacturing cells at a price of

liq [111]

Answer:

$1,521,800

Explanation:

The computation of cost basis is shown below:-

Three cells cost price = 3 × $470,000

= $1,410,000

Combination of rate charges = $30,000 + $16,000 + $39,000 + $3,600

= $88,600

Wages of one foreman = wage per hour × weeks worked × hours per week

= $29 × 5 × 40

= $5,800

Wages of 4 foremen = 4 × $5,800

= $23,200

Three cells cost basis = Three cells cost price + Combination of rate charges + Wages of one foreman

= $1,410,000 + $88,600 + $23,200

= $1,521,800
