Answer:

This is an example of improving <em>efficiency </em>to gain competitive advantage.

Explanation:

Efficiency is one of the 2 signs (the other is <em>effectiveness</em>) for managers which determines how efficient the company is operating or are they doing things right?

Since the managers at Trevor's company are trying to produce max output with the same workers by restructuring the whole production process this implies that:

  1. They don't want to incur high cost by employing further employees but trying to manage the scenario with what they have.
  2. They are aiming to be faster than other companies.  

This will in result help them in getting the <em>competitive advantage</em> (Operating at higher level in one or more functions relative to other companies).

Red Builders agrees to construct a new building for Blue Co. for a total contract price of $6,000,000. The estimated constructio
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: $300,000

Explanation:

Total expected costs = cost incurred to date + estimated cost to complete

                                   = 1,200,000 + 3,600,000

                                   = 4,800,000

Percentage of completion=\frac{Cost\ incurred\ to\ date}{Total\ expected\ cost}\times 100

Percentage of completion=\frac{1,200,000}{4,800,000}\times 100

                                                 = 0.25

                                                 = 25%

Profit = contract revenue - Total expected costs

         = $6,000,000 - 4,800,000

         = $1,200,000

Cumulative gross profit = Profit × Percentage of completion

                                       = $1,200,000 × 0.25

                                       = $300,000

Therefore, Red Builders should have recognized profit at the end of year 1 in the amount of $300,000.

Solving for dominant strategies and the Nash equilibrium
Svetach [21]

Question Completion:

Matrix payoff:

                                              Sharon

                                  Left              Right

Paolo     Left              8,  3             4,   4

              Right           5,  3             5,   4

Answer:

The only dominant strategy in this game is for ___Paolo______ to choose ____Right______.

The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Paolo chooses ____Right______ and Sharon chooses __ Right_____.

Explanation:

a) Paolo's dominant strategy is the strategy that always provides the greater utility to Paolo, no matter what Sharon's strategy is.  In this case, the dominant strategy for Paolo is to choose RIGHT always.

b) The Nash Equilibrium concept determines the optimal solution in a non-cooperative game in which each player (e.g. Paolo and Sharon) lacks any incentive to change their initial strategies. This implies that each player can achieve their desired outcomes by not deviating from their initial strategies since each player's strategy is optimal when considering the decisions of the other player.
