Which type of egoism is the theory that humans are only capable of acting in their own self interest?

1 answer:

5 0

According to psychological egoism, all actions are driven by self-interest. In other words, it implies that everyone's behavior, actions, and decisions are driven by self-interest. Additionally, it implies that all decisions must be driven by personal gain.

A second defense of psychological egoism contends that people always act selfishly because it makes them feel good. For instance, you might assist a turtle crossing a roadway because, if you didn't, you would be concerned for its safety while doing so.

natulia [17]

Answer:

$5.76

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the price of a put option with the same exercise price

We would be Using put-call parity and solving for the put price

$67 + P = $70e^–(.026)(3/12)+ $3.21

$67 + P = $70e^–(.026)(.25)+ $3.21

$67 + P =190.2797^–(0.0065)+ $3.21

$67 + P =$69.5465+ $3.21

$67 + P =$72.7565

P=$72.7565-$67

P=$5.7565

P=$5.76 (Approximately)

Therefore the price of a put option with the same exercise price will be $5.76

sveta [45]

Answer:

C) Create a customer-driven environment where we constantly try to create customer value.

Explanation:

A competitive advantage basically refers to offering a better service at the same price as your competition, or offering the same service as your competition but at a lower price. In this case, Gina's idea focuses on offering a differentiated and better service than the competition, and hopefully be able to sell it at the same price.

In order to create a customer driven environment, the company must identify its customers's needs and it must do everything it can to satisfy those needs. This will increase both the perceived quality of the service and consumer satisfaction.
