Answer: 1a. A supply chain is the summation of processes involved in ensuring that goods manufactured by a company gets to the final consumer.
Explanation:
1b. Managerial Accountants can improve the supply chain by looking out for hitches in the distribution cycle of goods and being proactive about handling them. Some measures to achieve these are;
1. Effective Logistics Network - All the resources used on logistics such as vehicles, Information technology devices/software, human resources, etc., should be regularly checked to be in good form at all times and equally, efficient.
2. Stock Control - Goods that may be required by costumers at any point in time should always be available.
3. Efficient Payment System - All resources used for payment including bank account information point of sale machines, should be regularly checked to be in good order.
4. Distribution Strategies - A clear cut map should be put in place by the management to facilitate an efficient and prompt delivery system. This can be done by strengthening all departments involved in distribution.
2. Sustainable Practices are those methods of production or initiatives, adopted by companies that seek to limit damage to the environment. An example, is recycling. These practices are geared at ensuring a safer world.
I would invest in a company that discloses their sustainable practices, first, because I believe they are transparent, and secondly because I believe that such companies aim at being enduring companies which are evolving and living up to the demands of a cleaner earth.
Answer:
A. Movement on the PPC
B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC
C. Less Concavity of PPC
Explanation:
Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).
- It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
- It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
- Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.
a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)
b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.
c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.
