Businesses and corporations relocate to developing nations so they
don't have to pay the wages that developed nations pay their workers.
Many of these nations do not have the same regulations in regards to
workers' rights, benefits, safety, and environmental impact. Because
companies aren't subject to these regulations, they are able to save
millions of dollars. As a result, businesses shut down operations in the
U.S. and other developed nations and move those jobs abroad.
Answer:
The correct total time is nineteen (19) days instead of twenty-one days.
Explanation:
Given the analysis of time for the project in parenthesis, it is feasible to merge some of the activities together by carrying them out simultaneously.
For example:
In the course of arranging and confirming the training facility to use which will last for 3 days, the development of the training material that ought to last for 5 days is brought down to a 2 days work because the initial 3 days for arrangement becomes vacant pending the reply on the final day. This brings the total days from 8 to 5.
Other days remain thus:
• Send an e-mail message to all department managers (1 day)
• Print copies of handout (2 days)
• Develop a set of PowerPoint slides (5 days)
• Conduct a practice training session with the instructor (2 days)
• Conduct the user training sessions (4 days).
Hence, total days are as follow:
5 +1 + 2 + 5 + 2 + 4 = 19 days.
Answer:
The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions and income effect is dominant.
Explanation:
In case of a normal good, both the income effect as well as substitution effect work in the same direction. A fall in the price of a product will increase the purchasing power of the consumer so its quantity demanded will increase.
The consumers will also prefer the cheaper good so the substitution effect will cause the quantity demanded to increase.
In case of an inferior good, however, income elasticity is negative. The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions.
A price decrease in the case of an inferior good will increase the real income and purchasing power of the consumer. This will cause the quantity demanded of the inferior good to decline as the consumer will prefer a substitute normal good.
Who pays the tax does NOT depend on who write the check to the government.
Who pays the check ultimately depend on the elasticity of supply and demand. This is because, suppliers have several ways of passing the taxes levied on them by the government to the consumers in form of increase in price of their products. But this also depend on the elasticity of the products, because if the prices are too high, some customers may decide to buy somewhere else or to go for a substitute.<span />
