Answer:
For USA
Opportunity cost of 1 ton of steel = 250 / 25 = 10 automobiles
opportunity cost of 1 auto mobile = 25 / 250 = 0.1 ton of steel
For Japan
Opportunity cost of 1 ton of steel = 275 / 30 = 9.17 automobiles
opportunity cost of 1 auto mobile = 30 / 275 = 0.109 ton of steel
Japan will produce steel and US will produce automobile

The investor who currently has 20,000 shares has the right to buy this number of shares, if she exercises her preemptive right:
E) 8,000 shares.
Explanation:
Data and Calculations:
Outstanding common stock = 500,000
Planned issue of additional shares = 200,000
Proportion of new issue to outstanding = 0.40 (200,000/500,000)
For an investor with 20,000 shares, she has the right to buy 8,000 (20,000 * 0.40) additional shares.

Answer:
219 sheets
Explanation:
D = 5000 per year,
d = daily demand = 5000/365 = 13.70 sheets
T = time between orders (review) = 14 days
L = Lead time = 10 days
σd= Standard deviation of daily demand = 5 per day
I = Current Inventory = 150 sheets Service Level
P = 95% (Probability of not stocking out) q=d(L+D)z σ T+L-1
σ T+L-1= square root (T+L)=5 square root 14+10= 24.495
From Standard normal distribution, z = 1.64 for 95% Service Level (or 5% Stock out)
q=13.70*(14+10)+1.64(24.495)-150
= 218.97 →219 sheets
Answer:
No
Explanation:
An independent contractor is a business person or entity who works for an employer based on an agreed-upon contract which affords him the flexibility of choosing how and when he accomplishes a task. The employer has the right to control the results of his work but has little or no say on how and when the job is done.
An independent contractor is not bound to work specific hours dictated by an employer. When the sale's agent finds it difficult to close a deal or is unable to produce paperwork in a timely fashion, he cannot just be arbitrarily penalized by the broker. The broker could terminate the contract if the agent does not meet up to his requirements.
