How did the market economy and westward expansion intensify the institution of slavery?

1 answer:

7 0

I would say that the market economy and westward expansion promoted the institution of slavery as in the new United States whereby in order to sell more say cotton at a cheap price (the market economy) then the landowners would employ slaves for cheap labour so as to extract maximum profit from their labour.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

29,143

Explanation:

Profit target = 25% on sales

Fixed cost = $51,000

Variable cost = $9.50 per unit

Sales price per unit = $15

To achieve profit target, let the number of units sold be y

Total sales = 15y

Total variable cost = 9.5y

Profit = 0.25 × 15y

= 3.75y

Sales - Cost = profit

15y - (51000 + 9.5y) = 3.75y

15y - 9.5y - 3.75y = 51000

1.75y = 51000

y = 51000/1.75

y = 29143

29,143 bears must be sold to meet the profit goal.

Use the following information to determine the break-even point in units (rounded to the nearest whole unit): Unit sales 58,000

Tema [17]

Answer:

29,394 units

Explanation:

The formula for break even point is given as Fixed cost / Contribution margin.

Where;

Contribution margin = Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit

Given that ;

Fixed cost = $194,000

Unit selling price = $14.90

Unit variable cost = $8.30

Therefore;

BEP(units) = $194,000 / $14.90 - $8.30

= $194,000 / $6.6

= 29,394 units

Agile project management involves ____ whereas traditional project management involves _______. Multiple Choice known and stable

Ainat [17]

Answer:

For comprehension purposes, I would write the question again with options attached below:

Agile project management involves ____ whereas traditional project management involves _______. Multiple Choice

a. known and stable scope, unknown requirements

b. high certainty, projects with unstable scope

c. projects with high predictability, project with unknown or unstable requirements

d. iterative and incremental delivery, upfront planning with high predictability

e. high uncertainty, projects with unknown requirements

The correct answer is option d. (iterative and incremental delivery, upfront planning with high predictability)

So, Agile project management involves <u>iterative and incremental delivery </u>whereas traditional project management involves <u>upfront planning with high predictability</u>.

Explanation:

Agile project management involves iterative and incremental delivery as Agile project management allows making changes to the product which then opens ways for iteration. Agile life cycles are composed of several iterations because of changes that might arise due to feedback during the production process of the project.

Traditional project management is highly predictable and it doesn't give room for changes as project cycles and stages are planned ahead. It's a rigid process.
