Answer: Value added by farmer = $1 Value added by miller = $2  Value added by the baker =  $3

GDP contribution is $6.

Explanation: GDP refers to the market value of final goods and services produced withing the national territory of a country.

Using the value added method, we can calculate GDP by summing up the value added at each level of production.

Value added by farmer = $1 Value added by miller = $3 -$1 = $2  Value added by the baker = $6 - $3 = $3

GDP = Value added by the farmer +Value added by the miller + Value added by the baker  = $1 + $2 +$3 =$6

Using the expenditure approach, GDP is the market value of the final good sold to the customer.

GDP = Cost of bread to the engineer = $6

Leokris [45]

Answer:

1. Equity is the difference between the company's assets and liabilities.

2. D. $83

Explanation:

Req. A

We know,

The accounting equation is

Total asset = total liabilities + total stockholders' equity

Therefore, total asset - total liabilities = total stockholders' equity

So, we can say that equity is the difference between the company's assets and liabilities. However, equity cannot be claimed before the liabilities. Therefore, the option "A" is the correct answer.

Req. B

Answer:

Since the calculated value of F= 5.733 falls in the critical region we reject the null hypothesis  and conclude all three means are not equal.

Explanation:

The given data is

Banking          Retail            Insurance

12                      8                        10

10                     8                          8

10                     6                          6

12                     8                           8

<u>10                    10                          10</u>

The results of excel are:            

<u><em>Anova: Single Factor  </em></u>    

     

SUMMARY      

Groups    Count Sum Average         Variance  

Column 1 5 54            10.8              1.2  

Column 2 5 40               8               2  

Column 3 5 42              8.4                 2.8  

         

1) Let the null and alternate hypotheses be

H0: u1=u2=u3  i.e all the three means are equal and

Ha: Not all three means are equal

2) The significance level is set at ∝ =0.05

3)The test statistic to use is

F= sb²/ sw²

which has F distribution with v1= k-1 →3-1=2 and v2= n-k →15-3=12 degrees of freedom

After calculations the following table is obtained.

<u><em>ANOVA  </em></u>

4) The critical region is F ≥ F(0.05, 2,12) = 3.885

5) Since the calculated value of F= 5.733 falls in the critical region we reject the null hypothesis  and conclude all three means are not equal.

Identify two characteristics of utilitarianism, two characteristics of virtue ethics, and two characteristics of deontology. Wri
givi [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

One claim of unethical practice done by Starbucks is that they do not give a chance for small coffee-shops and try to cease them out by acquairing them or competing aggressively. However in the case of buying the coffeeshops they evaluate the price of the shop generously.

In terms of utilitarianism, the action of buying out small shops through generous offer is considered not unethical, because if Starbucks sets up their business nearby the small shop, it will most likely suffer and by purchasing them it is actually a favor for coffeeshops.

The characteristics of utilitarianism is:

The end result of an action should be the most positive outcome for all the parties concerned

The action that leads to the end result is not as important as the result itself

Even though discussed issue is ethical in temrs of utilitarianism view, it is unethical in terms of deontology. Starbucks is causing the shut down of the local business and also discouraging its growth.

The characteristics of deontological ethics is :

The action is the most important focus of the ethical consideration

The result may not be the best but the entity/person in charge should take an ethical action

The third part is the virtue ethics.  As per the virtue ethics, we cannot say that the action is ethical. This is not the only blame that Starbucks faces. They face allegation of exploiting coffee farmers, damaging the environment and mistreating their employees.

The characteristics of virtue ethics is

The moral value of the person/organization is more important than action or the result

Even if the action is unethical or the result is unethical, the moral of the person/company can still be correct.
