1. Evidence-based management seems like common sense initially, but the reality is not that simple. Managers are often hired based on their experience. Therefore, people tend to believe their word more than they would believe some types of concrete evidence. Moreover, even when evidence does not change, it can be interpreted in various ways by different people, making objectivity impossible.

2. Sometimes, evidence-based management might not be the best approach. This would especially be the case in situations where a manager might be very experienced. It might be better to trust the manager's interpretation of events as opposed to what the evidence might suggest.

3. It is unlikely that automated evidence-based management could ever fully replace human decision-makers. This is because automated managers might not be sensitive enough to human matters that are important for a correct interpretation of evidence.

4. I would want to work under this system, as ultimately the system is most likely to lead to efficient outcomes. Moreover, under this system, all workers are treated in the same way.

Fantom [35]

Something not to consider when trying to get a positive return on investment (ROI) for higher education is: c. the type of food that is offered on the meal plan.

<h3>What is rate of return?</h3>

Rate of return can be defined as a net gain (profit) or loss that is associated with an investment over a specified period of time, and it's usually expressed as a percentage of the investment's initial cost.

This ultimately implies that, the rate of return must be higher than the rate of inflation in order for any business firm or individual to earn money on their investments.

Also, a positive return on investment (ROI) entails a net gain (profit) from an investment over a specified period of time.

Assume that you are a high-level manager for a shoe manufacturer. You know that your firm could increase its profit margin by pr
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The issue here is that you need to balance your company's profits and possible negative due to bad press.

On one side (the good and righteous side), if you do not produce shoes in Asia, your long term survival economic is doubtful, but people view your company as a company that does the right thing no matter what. Will it increase sales? Theoretically it should, but in practice it doesn't. Are Nike sales hurt because each shoe is produced in an Asian country that pays $0.25 per day? No, they aren't. The same applies to Reebok, Adidas, Puma, New Balance and every single major shoe manufacturer in the world. Bad press hurt tuna back in the 80's, but some companies are not affected by it.

The alternative (the evil, dark side of the force side) results in your company being able to survive on the long term. It will not necessarily mean that your company will grow and become the world's largest shoe manufacturer, but you will be able to survive and continue to operate.

There is also a trick that you can use to avoid reputational damage and bad press, and that is to establish a foreign subsidiary in Indonesia using a different name. Then your foreign subsidiary sells you the manufactured goods, and the blame fall son the subsidiary. Believe it or not, that simple solution is used by most corporations including clothing manufacturers, electronics, toys, etc.

If you analyze this from an ethical point of view, the alternative is much simpler. Producing in Indonesia (or India, or Burma, or Pakistan, or Vietnam, etc.) and paying a $100 salary will allow a family to live a very decent life and probably even prosper. They will have a much better lifestyle than the rest of their neighborhood. Each Indonesian worker represents one less poor family in Indonesia. On the other hand, American families will probably get hurt, but it is also much easier for an American worker to get another job that pays a normal wage (in US standards) and allows them to live well.

Which is an example of someone who is cyclically unemployed?
Korolek [52]

Answer:

<em>A. autoworker who is temporarily laid off from an automobile company because of a decline in sales. </em>

Explanation:

Cyclical unemployment is <em>unemployment that occurs when full employment can not be met by the aggregate demand for goods and services in an economy.</em>

This takes place during times of decreased economic growth or times of economic slowdown.

Cyclical unemployment is directly linked to the degree of macroeconomic behavior, which is the combined or collective activity of all economically involved individuals and entities.

Instead of linear, this overall trend is cyclical-economic activity tends to increase and fall rather than always rising or falling.

You have a $15,000 portfolio which is invested in Stocks A and B, and a risk-free asset. $6,000 is invested in Stock A. Stock A
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

$7073.68

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Worth of portfolio = $15,000

Amount invested in stock A = $6,000

Beta of stock A = 1.63

Beta of stock B = 0.95

Beta of portfolio = 1.10

Now,

Beta portfolio = ∑(Weight × Beta)

let the amount invested in Stock B be 'x'

thus,

1.10 = [($6,000 ÷ $15,000 ) × 1.63] +  [( x ÷ $15,000 ) × 0.95 ]

or

1.10 = 0.652 + [( x ÷ $15,000 ) × 0.95 ]

or

0.448 = [( x ÷ $15,000 ) × 0.95 ]

or

x = ( 0.448 × $15,000 ) ÷ 0.95

or

x = $7073.68
