The Utility Function Shows That S and K can be used interchangeably, according to the utility function, and only one of them is really consumed.

  • Utility in economics refers to the pleasure or happiness that customers derive from using an item or service. Consumer preferences for a variety of products and services are gauged by the utility function.

<u>CALCULATION</u>

Although the benefit or happiness that customers experience is calculated in units called utils

  • MPs / MPk = 3/4 = 0.75 for MRS.
  • Ps / Pk= 2 / 3 = 0.67
  • MRS > Ps/Pk,

Hence only S will be employed.

'Starfruit' = 60 / 2 = '30

Kiwi = 0

Departmentalizing decisions increases the risk of __________ leading to a poor decision.
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Bounded Rationality

Explanation:

To begin with, it is essential to understand the concept of departmentalization.

Departmentalization centers on the idea that departments/divisions within an organization are grouped and/or sectioned, using some identified benchmarks. In extension, Departmentalizing, is simply the acts of engaging in departmentalization.

Bounded rationality, is a phenomenon that states that human reasoning and extension, logic could be threatened by a number of constraints. The constraints here could be human, material and physical resources. The implication is that an individual is not in possession of full details and information that could influence or shape his position.

Hence, by departmentalizing, an organization has placed a constraint on the amount of information accessible to that department, under the bigger context of an organization. Thus, the departments' rationality has been bounded and this could ultimately spiral into poor decision making, principally because of lack of detailed information.

Which management theory was based on understanding each part of a task, selecting the right workers, providing adequate training
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Taylorism

Explanation:

Taylorism, often referred to as Scientific Management, was the first theory of management to focus specifically on analyzing and optimizing workflows. These theories of process optimization helped drive the Fordist shift to mass production which occurred in the early part of the 20th Century.  Taylorism can be boiled down to 4 principal points:  The method of doing a task should be informed by a scientific investigation of the task  , employees should be selected and carefully trained for tasks  ,tasks should have detailed instructions and should be subject to supervision  and management should evaluate tasks and formulate optimized approaches for the workers to follow .

Some forms of analysis might be done by timing how long it takes a worker to do a task, others by weighing raw materials. Process analysis, for Taylor, had to look at both the minutiae of the process composition and the detail of the physical acts required to complete the process. The elements of process improvement Taylor advocated for were successful in regards to processing materials; changing the way steel was cut and patenting that process. Yet, during his life, Taylor struggled to achieve quite the same success improving the efficiency of workers.  Taylorism was first scientifically understanding how the production process worked and then supporting the managers of a workplace to intimately train workers to work at maximum efficiency. This way, the means towards higher returns is paved with a well-managed, harmonious relationship between managers and workers. In theory, this would have been a much more sustainable model for an organization. But despite that promise, people, although genetically similar, are intrinsically unique and complex. Aligning different minds and ushering people to a new way of working (from individual craft, to standardized production), sometimes require more time and effort than bringing in a new piece of technology.

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Refer to the Article Summary. Implementing a negative interest rate policy, as is discussed in the article summary, would be designed to ___lower_____ the price level and ___improve_____ real GDP.

Explanation:

The Fed will consider negative interest rates when it wants to increase borrowing and lending during economic recessions.  The effects of a negative interest rate are the reduction of the cost of borrowing economy-wide and the increase of economic activity.  The increased economic activity will be achieved through increased investments and increased consumption spending.  Thus, banks and consumers are encouraged to lend and borrow more money so that the economy can spend its way out of recession.

During the current month, Grey Company sold 60,000 units for $10 each. Each unit had an equivalent cost of $6 each. The journal
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The sale entry would be:

Dr Trade Receivable  $ 600,000

Cr                     Sale            $600,000

And the inventory sent out of warehouse to customer would be recorded as:

Dr Cost of goods sold $360,000

Cr Finished Goods account  $360,000

Explanation:

As we know the sale is credit in nature and inventory sold on credit increases the trade receivable which is debit in nature.

So the entry would be:

Dr Trade Receivable  $ 600,000

Cr                     Sale            $600,000

And the inventory sent out of warehouse to customer would be recorded as:

The reason is that once the product is sold then the cost of finished goods is eliminated from the inventory account and would be charged to the cost of goods sold. So the entry would be posted by the cost of equivalent that the company has incurred to manufacture the product. Here the cost of equivalent is given and is $6 per unit.

So for the sale of 60,000 units the total cost of equivalent will be:

Total equivalent cost = 60,000 units * $6 per unit = $360,000

And the entry would be:

Dr Cost of goods sold $360,000

Cr Finished Goods account  $360,000
