-What should be produced?- is one of the three basic economic question that could only be asked after considering the available resources in the country, technology development, and purchasing power among the people.

The end answer for this question should be in the form of product.

At a large department store, the number of years of employment for a cashier is a normally distributed variable with a mean of 5

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

0.0084

Explanation:

For this probability problem, we will have to make use of the normal probability distribution table.

to use the table, we will have to compute a certain value

z = (x- mean) /Standard deviation

z = $\frac{(10 - 5.7)}{1.8}$ = 2.39

Probability he has worked in the store for over 10 years can be obtained by taking the z value of 2.39 to the normal probability distribution table to read off the values.

To do this, on the "z" column, we scan down the value 2.3. we then trace that row until we reach the value under the ".09" column.

This gives us 0.99916

Thus we have P (Z < 2.39) = 0.9916

We subtract the value obtained from the table from 1 to get the probability required.

1 - 0.9916 = 0.0084

The Probability that the employee has worked at the store for over 10 years = 0.0084

Suppose the United States is currently producing 200 tons of hamburgers and 60 tons of tacos and Mexico is currently producing 4

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

United States is producing 200 tons of hamburgers and 60 tons of tacos.

United States' opportunity cost for producing 1 ton of hamburgers

= $\frac{60}{200}$

= 0.3

United States' opportunity cost for producing 60 tons of tacos.

= $\frac{200}{60}$

= 3.33

So we see that US has a lower opportunity cost in producing hamburgers, so it has a comparative advantage in producing hamburgers.

Mexico is producing 40 tons of hamburgers and 50 tons of tacos.

Mexico's opportunity cost of producing a ton of hamburgers

= $\frac{50}{40}$

= 1.25

Mexico's opportunity cost of producing a ton of tacos

= $\frac{40}{50}$

= 0.8

So we see that Mexico has a lower opportunity cost in producing tacos, so it has a comparative advantage in making tacos.

Since US specializes in making hamburgers, it will produce 200 tons of hamburgers and 0 tons of tacos.

Mexico specializes in making tacos, it will produce 50 tons of tacos and 0 tons of hamburgers.

If the market for corporate control were efficient as a governance device, then only __________ would be targets for takeovers.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. poorly performing firms.

Explanation:

Corporate governance is the set of rules, principles and procedures that regulate the structure and operation of the governing bodies of a company. Specifically, it establishes the relationships between the board of directors, the board of directors, the shareholders and the rest of the interested parties, and stipulates the rules governing the decision-making process on the company for the generation of value.

In recent years, and more specifically following the onset of the financial crisis, the international community has understood the importance of listed companies being managed in an adequate and transparent manner. The good governance of companies is the basis for the functioning of markets, as it favors credibility, stability and contributes to boosting growth and wealth generation.

The weakness shown by corporate governments of large organizations in the past has multiplied the demands for transparency, truthfulness, good practices and responsible business behavior on the part of investors, consumers and society in general, which not only pay attention anymore. to financial indicators, but they also want to know how those results have been achieved.
