Answer:
It will take 10.058 years from today.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Present value= $1,091
Future value= $1,728
Interest rate= 12%
<u>First, we need to calculate the number of years it will take to transform the PV into the FV:</u>
<u></u>
n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)
n= ln(1,728/1,091) / ln(1.12)
n= 4.058 years
It will take 10.058 years from today.
A contingent workforce is more on-demand than standard, full-time employees. Examples of contingent workers are freelancers, contractors, and consultants. These types of workers are hired when needed for shorter term projects and are only employed by the company for the time they are needed to complete their project.
Answer: The statement "D) context, composition, and process factors" represents the three general categories into which the key components of effective teams are grouped.
Explanation: Context: obtaining adequate resources, effective leadership, a climate in which confidence abounds and performance control and rewards that demonstrate the contributions of the team are the factors of the context that are related to the operation of the team.
Composition: These are the variables that are taken into account when establishing the way in which the equipment should be integrated. The capacity and personality of the members, the size of the group, the roles and the flexibility of the working group are taken into account.
The factors of the process are the effectiveness of the team, conflicts at a manageable level, the commitment of each participant in the group for a common purpose and set goals for the team.
Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
The average fixed cost is determined by dividing the total fixed cost by number of units produced.
Given that,
Fixed cost = $24
The average fixed cost of producing 3 units of output is:
= Total Fixed cost ÷ Number of units produced
= $24 ÷ 3
= 8
Therefore, the average fixed cost of producing 3 units of output is $8.00.
Answer:
D) is 20% above expectations.
Explanation:
The Augusta Division was supposed to earn a net profit of $1,000,000 (= $2,000,000 - $1,000,000). Since the division's manager and his/her team were able to cut reduce fixed costs to $900,000 and increase contribution margin to $2,100,000 (either by increasing selling price or reducing variable costs), then the division earned a net profit of $1,200,000 (= $2,100,000 - $900,000). This net profit is 20% higher than expected, therefore the manager's (and his/her team's) overall performance was 20% above expectations.
