Answer:

The financial disadvantage for the company is 3,500

Explanation:

Computation is Shown Below;

Sales Value at split-off Point = 24000

Subtract: Allocated joint Cost =<u> 16800</u>

Profit if sold at split-off point = 7200

Sales Value after processing = 35500

Subtract: Allocated joint Cost = 16800

Sub: Cost of further processing <u>= 15000 </u>

Profit if Processing further = 3700

Financial Disadvantage = 3700 - 7200 = (3500)

Answer: FINANCIAL DISADVANTAGE = $3,500

Explanation:

GIVEN the following;

PRODUCT X:

Allocated joint processing cost = $16,800

Sales Value at split off point = $24,000

Cost of further processing = $15,000

Sales value after further processing = $35,500

PRODUCT Y:

Allocated joint processing cost = $16,800

Sales Value at split off point = $24,000

Cost of further processing = $18,700

Sales Value after further processing = $45,100

The financial advantage or disadvantage is determined by comparing the sale value at split off point to the difference between the selling price after further processing and the cost of further processing of the product

To calculate the financial advantage (disadvantage) of product X :

Sale value of product X at split off point = $24,000

Benefit of further processing = (Sale value of product X after further processing - Cost of further processing product X)

$(35,500 - 15,000) = $20,500

FINANCIAL DISADVANTAGE = ( Sale value at split off > benefit of further processing )

$24,000 - $20,500 = $3500

The process through which a product or service takes root initially in simple applications at the bottom of a market and then moves up, eventually displacing established companies, is referred to as <u>Disruptive Innovation</u>.

In a business idea, disruptive innovation is an innovation that creates a brand new market and price network or enters at the lowest of an existing market and in the end displaces established marketplace-leading companies, products, and alliances.

Disruptive innovation refers to using a generation that upsets a structure, instead of "disruptive technology", which refers back to the era itself. Amazon, launched as an online bookstall in the mid-Nineties, is an example of disruptive innovation.

Disruptive innovation is the manner by using which a smaller enterprise—normally with fewer sources—moves upmarket and demanding situations larger, hooked-up corporations.

natulia [17]

Answer:

a) Dominant strategy is for Rina to choose Right.

b) Musashi chooses left and Rina chooses right

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a).

A winning strategy is the tactic a player selects regardless of the tactic other player selects.

When Rina selects left, Musashi selects right because  (7>4)

When Rina selects right, Musashi selects left because  (6>4)

A factory pays its employees on Wednesdays, and on Thursdays, employee productivity seems to be a little slow. The productivity
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

C. Fixed Interval

Explanation:

"Fixed Interval" is a type of <em>Reinforcement Schedule. </em>The "reward" in the situation above is the<em> salary given to the employees</em> during Wednesdays. As noticed, their productivity increases over the week, with the peak on Wednesday.  

The<u> "peak" of productivity</u> is the<u> exhibited behavior during pay day.</u> They try to work hard in order to receive a salary. <em>They become more inspired to work during the salary day.</em> It is followed by<em> </em><em>less productivity on Thursdays</em><em> </em>because they have already been rewarded.

Such reinforcement schedule is called the "fixed interval." This also means that their productivity will not increase if they will not be paid.

So, this explains the answer.
