Ragtime flourished in the united states from the 1890s to about 1915. It's a fast-paced, syncopated musical genre that helped pave the way for jazz, dominated American popular music from around 1899 to 1917.

In the final decades of the 19th century, ragtime developed through the performances of honky-tonk pianists along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. It incorporated elements of European music as well as minstrel show tunes, African American banjo playing styles, syncopated (off-beat) cakewalk dancing rhythms, and other genres. Ragtime's distinctive expression was found in formally organised piano compositions. A quick, bouncingly syncopated melody in the right hand was in time with the regularly emphasised left-hand beat and provided the piece with its energising forward momentum.

The most popular of the early rags, "The Maple Leaf Rag," was published in 1899 by Scott Joplin, known as the "King of Ragtime." Joplin wrote hundreds of little works, a collection of études, and operas in the ragtime form because he thought it was a permanent and serious subgenre of classical music. Other notable performers included Tony Jackson in New Orleans and Louis Chauvin in St. Louis. Thomas M. Turpin is known as the "Father of St. Louis Ragtime."

Being cheap in front of superiors it is very common in local managers. Mostly managers who are greedy to be ranked higher or get promoted. They think when they will obsequious their higher authorities they will be happy to see them and think about their loyalty and they will promote them.

To avoid this kind of behavior companies should appoint only educated and talented persons having self-respect after taking interviews. When a company recruits the managers, it is company duty to train their employees in professional ethics and teach them a proper way of doing a job with self-respect. Higher authorities should demoralize them with this kind of soapy behaviors.

An industry has 5 firms, and is found to have violated antitrust laws. The government breaks it up into 10 firms that will share
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2,000 to 1,000

Explanation:

The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index, HHI, is measured by using the market share of each firm in the industry, then square them, and sum the result.

However, supposing that there were only one firm in an industry, that firm would have 100% market share, and the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) would equal 10,000, indicating a monopoly.

Thus, in this case, it was initially 5 firms, with no special market share allocated to each of the firm, hence, it is assumed they shared the market share equally, and that will be 2,000 HHI. This shown by each of the 5 firms having 20% market share

HHI = 20² + 20² + 20² + 20² + 20² = 2,000

At the same time, since the government breaks the industry up into 10 firms that will share the market equally. Then, the Herfindahl index will be 1,000. This is shown by HHI = 10² * 10 (since it involves 10 firms with equal share of the market) = 1,000.

Therefore, The Herfindahl index for the industry would change from: 2,000 to 1,000.
