A firm is weighing three capacity alternatives: small, medium, and large job shop. Whatever capacity choice is made, the market

for the firm's product can be "moderate" or "strong." The probability of moderate acceptance is estimated to be 40 percent; strong acceptance has a probability of 60 percent. The payoffs are as follows. Small job shop, moderate market = $24,000; Small job shop, strong market = $54,000. Medium job shop, moderate market = $20,000; medium job shop, strong market = $64,000. Large job shop, moderate market = -$2,000; large job shop, strong market = $96,000. Which capacity choice should the firm make?

Answer:

<u>Since expected payoff for large job shop option is highest, firm should make large job shop option as capacity choice</u>

Explanation:

Expected payoff of any capacity alternative

= Probability of moderate acceptance x Payoff of moderate acceptance + Probability of strong acceptance x Payoff of strong acceptance

= 0.40 x Payoff of moderate acceptance + 0.60 x Pay off of strong acceptance

Thus Pay off for small job shop option

= 0.40 x 24000 + 0.6 x 54000

= 9600 + 32400

= $42,000

Pay off for medium job shop option

= 0.40 x 20000 + 0.60 x 64000

= 8000 + 38400

= $ 46,400

Pay off for large job shop option

= - 0.40 x 2000 + 0.60 x 96000

= - 800 + 57600

= $56,800

Can I Plss get some help on this
Verdich [7]

Based on the inflation rate and the fact that it is rising, the right recommendation would be to A. raise the reserve ratio.

<h3 /><h3>How can you decrease inflation?</h3>

Inflation can be reduced when the reserve ratio is raised because it will reduce the amount of money that banks have to loan out.

This means that there will be less money in the economy which will reduce inflation because less money means less demand for goods and services.

Demonstrate how workplace discrimination undermines organizational effectiveness.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Workplace discrimination prevents the firm from using the full potential of those employees that are being discriminated against.

Explanation:

For example, if the firm discriminates against a specific group of people when hiring (for example, it can discriminate against older people), the firm could lose valuable potential employees that could have provided great skill and experience for the firm.

If the firm practices discrimination against employees, the operation in the company will not be as streamlined as it could be against discrimination because those who are being treated poorly will be less motivated and have lesser output.

1. For each case, determine the maximum quantity of money generated in the
Deffense [45]

Reserve requirement is 10% and excess reserves are $11 million is $122.2 million. Reserve requirement is 5% and excess reserves are $13 million is  $273.6 million. Reserve requirement is 2 % and excess reserves are $7 million is $357 million.

What is money generated?

In the form of bank deposits, or the figures that show up in your account, banks produce the majority of the money that circulates in our economy.

(a) Excess reserve, the balance of the entire deposit remaining after the reserve requirement of 10% has been met. Therefore, $11 million represents 90% of the total deposit. 11+(11×10%) The entire amount of the deposit will be $12.22 million.

The money multiplier determines how much money is generated.

Money Multiplier = 1/10% of Reserve Ratio = 10

Therefore, Quantity of money generated= $12.22 million * 10 = $122.2 million.

(b) Excess reserve, the balance of the entire deposit remaining after the reserve requirement of 5% has been met. Since $13 million represents 95% of the total deposit,13+(13×5%) There will be a total deposit of $13.68 million.

The money multiplier determines how much money is generated.

Money Multiplier = 1/5 Reserve Ratio = 20

Therefore, Quantity of money generated=$13.68 million * 20 = $273.6 million.

(c) Excess reserve, the remaining balance of the total deposit after the reserve requirement of 2% has been subtracted. 98 percent of the total deposit is therefore $7 million. 17+(17×2%) Therefore, the overall deposit will be $7.14 million.

The money multiplier determines the amount of money that is produced.

Money Multiplier = 1 / Reserve Ratio = 0.5 % = 50

Therefore, Quantity of money generated=$7.14 million * 50 = $357 million

As a result, option (a)  $122.2 million (b) $273.6 million (c) $357 million is an accurate answer.
