Answer:

Quantity demanded is the amount of a good that buyers are willing and able to purchase at a particular price. Many things determine demand, but only price can determine the quantity demanded of a specific good. If you have the money and are willing to buy 2 ice cream cones a week, at $2 per cone, the quantity demanded would be 2 cones a week. Now, what happens if the price increases to $4 a cone? If you are like most people, the quantity of ice cream cones you demand will decrease as the price rises. In this case, assume your quantity demanded is now only 1 cone a week, which is what you are willing and able to buy. Notice that as the price of the cones increases, the quantity of ice cream cones demanded decreases. This means quantity demanded is negatively related to price-which means they have an inverse relationship. Economists refer to this relationship as the law of demand. The law of demand states that, other things being equal, when the price of a good rises, the quantity demanded of that good falls. The reverse is also true-when the price of a good falls, the quantity demanded of that good rises. The combination of the quantities people are willing and able to buy of a good or service at various prices constitutes a demand schedule. When the demand schedule is graphed, the demand curve is downward sloping.

swat32

Answer:

Company's assets at the end of Year 2 were provided by creditors = 20%

Explanation:

Calculation of Cash at the end of Year 2

Cash balance at the end of Year 1 $600

Less: Paid off to notes payable ($500)

Add: Earned cash revenue $700

Less: Paid cash expenses ($400)

Less: Paid cash dividend ($100)

Cash balance at the end of Year 2 $300

Notes payable at the end of Year 2 = Beginning balance - Paid off

= $1,000 - $500

= $500

Calculation of Notes Payable at the end of Year 2

Notes Payable at the end of Year 1 $1000

Less: Paid off to notes payable ($500)

Notes Payable at the end of Year 2 $500

Total assets at the end of Year 2 = Cash + Land

= $300+2200

= $2500

Creditors at the end of the Year 2 (Notes payable) = $500

Company's assets at the end of Year 2 were provided by creditors = Creditors * 100 / Total assets

= $500 * 100 / $2500

= 20%

Answer:

B) False

Explanation:

Glocalization is a term that combines both globalization and localization. It was first used during the 1980s in Japan to define a way of thinking and developing business strategies: think locally and act globally.

Back in the 1980s Japan's economy was booming, it was the second largest economy in the world and Japanese car manufacturers and technological firms were wiping out the competition. This term refers to the western interpretation of Japanese business strategies of that decade, of selling similar but differentiated products everywhere.

E.g. American car manufacturers used to complain that Japanese consumers wouldn't buy their cars in Japan, but they simply had the steering wheel on the wrong side and Japanese consumers were not willing to even try them for that reason.

Luckily, things have changed and American companies also realized that their reality is not necessarily the reality of the rest of the world, and you must adapt your products to different markets.
