A sports team's owner is given a videotape of his star player physically striking his girlfriend in an elevator, causing her sev

ere injuries. The player has not been accused of any crime. Each player's employment contract states that a player may be terminated for committing battery. If the owner fires the player, the team will win fewer games, which will result in lower attendance and lower revenues for the stadium and the team. The owner may even have to lay off some employees. The owner has always admired the thinking of John Akers, the former chairman of IBM. What would Akers advise?

8 0

Answer:

The answer is: John Akers would have probably fired the player and made the video public.

Explanation:

Akers firmly believed that ethics were fundamental to economic competitiveness. He argued that without ethical behavior, individuals, corporations and society as a whole couldn´t be economically competitive.

So in this case, he would have simply terminated the players contract without regarding any of the potential downsides for the team.

20. Which of the following is not a difference between monopolies and perfectly competitive markets? a. Monopolies can earn prof
Naily [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market has a large number of buyers and sellers. The firms are price takers and the price is determined by the market forces. Thus the monopoly firms face a horizontal demand curve. This horizontal line represents price, average revenue, and marginal revenue. The equilibrium is obtained where price, (average revenue and marginal revenue) is equal to marginal cost. There is no restriction on entry and exit of firms in the long run. That's why firms face a break-even in the long run.  

While in a monopoly market there is a single firm. This firm fixes price higher than marginal cost. The demand curve of the monopoly is a downward sloping showing relatively elastic demand. A monopoly firm can earn profits in both the short run as well as the long run.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Firm A will buy all of the firm B's pollution permits. Each one will cost between $100 and $200.
