Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Quality problems.

Explanation:

Outsourcing is the practice by which a company hires a third party to be in charge of the production of what the company typically does but at lower costs. However, in some cases, the company does not have control over the quality standards of the third party, which is likely to use <em>low-quality assets </em>to profit as well.

Quinton wants you to calculate his biweekly paycheck. How much would he earn each pay period if he has an annual salary of $55,5
koban [17]
$2,134.62.

There are approximately 52 weeks in a given year, meaning that there are 52/2, or 26, biweekly pay periods. Therefore, we divide the annual salary of $55,500 by 26 biweekly pay periods to get $2,134.62 for the biweekly paycheck. 

The formula is the annual amount divided by the number of periods. Here, there are 26 periods of biweekly (once every two weeks) paychecks.

Consider two scenarios for a nation's economic growth. Scenario A has real GDP growing at an average annual rate of 3.5 percent;
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

20 years (scenario A) and 16 years (scenario B)

Explanation:

The real GDP will double in "n" number of years, with "n" estimated by interpolation using the formula below.

current GDP * (1+Growth Rate)^{n} = 2 * current GDP

In the solutions below, we assumed current GDP to be 1, and as a result, the GDP will double to 2.

Scenario A

1 * (1+0.35)^{n} =2

When you substitute 20 for "n" in the left hand side (LHS) of the equation, you will arrive at 1.99 which is approximately equal to 2. Any number below 20 will result in a number less than 2.

Thus, with an average annual real GDP growth rate of 3.5%, real GDP will double in about 20 years.

Scenario B

1 * (1+0.45)^{n} =2

When you substitute 16 for "n" in the left hand side (LHS) of the equation, you will arrive at 2.02 which is approximately equal to 2. Any number below 16 will result in a number less than 2.

Thus, with an average annual real GDP growth rate of 4.5%, real GDP will double in about 16 years.
