<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
The following would be the specifications of the training module for the cashiers:
1. There would be multiple modules consisting of the job responsibilities as refresher courses and at the same time, the new market conditions and additional job related things that they must be doing in the near future would be the other modules.
2. The key areas that the multi module training program would be focussing on would be, customer relationship training, system and data maintenance training, documentation and accounting module
3. The training intervention would be preferably on job and alongside there would be a mentor/coach allotted to the cashiers who are experts in the field preferably store managers and functional experts. For the system related modules, they would be having simulation based modules. Only during the non rush-hours there would be offline training and update sessions with respect to the progress made on their training and the productivity improvement they have achieved over the past week.
The incentives associated with the productivity improvement would be translated into incentivising the cashiers to take up the training modules. The weekly update on the productivity improvement and the progress in their training would inturn make them competitive in nature. While coming to why such distribution has been done with respect to the modules, essentially if we look at the job of the cashiers, it’s a round the clock job and they would lose out on precious working hours if the training is done on an offline basis.
The simulations would definitely help understand the process but the on job training would be the one that is standing out, as they would be continuing their task and at the same time, the result is right in front on them to experience and therefore the distribution of the modules to not stress them out and at the same time not losing out on their time as well.
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $1.5
Fixed costs= $2,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Miles Driven Total Cost
January 10,000 $17,000
February 8,000 13,500
March 9,000 14,400
April 7,000 12,500
<u>To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (17,000 - 12,500) / (10,000 - 7,000)
Variable cost per unit= $1.5
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 17,000 - (1.5*10,000)
Fixed costs= $2,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 12,500 - (1.5*7,000)
Fixed costs= $2,000
The answer is false. The two forms of intergroup conflict are: conflict states and conflict processes. An intergroup conflict is the disagreement that happens when two or more groups have conflict with one another. The conflict may be a formal or informal disagreement between like or varying groups.
