The answer is President Herbert Hoover. His approach to depression were:

1.       He tried to restore confidence in the economy by asking business not to cut payrolls and labor not to ask for higher wages. Most of them initially agreed until 1931.

2.       He also cut taxes and pressed the Federal Reserve Board to cut interest rates to make borrowing easier.

3.       He procured $2 billion for public works projects.

4.       He established the Reconstruction Finance Corporation and the Home Loan Bank Act to assist businesses and head off some foreclosures but he was a fiscal conservative who said we couldn't "squander our way to prosperity," and so he disparate further spending plans.

Gasoline and bicycles are complements in consumption. Suppose we increase the federal gasoline tax to $1 per gallon. What are th
dalvyx [7]

Answer: A

Explanation:

A complementary good is a product that is used together with another product. Without its complement, such a good will have little value. When there is increase in the price of a particular product, the demand of its complement reduces because consumers may not be able to use the complement on its own.

Complements have negative cross elasticity of demand i.e there is increase in the demand for a product when the price of its complement reduces. If bicycles and gasoline are complements, an increase in tax on gasoline will have a negative effect on the demand for bicycle. Due to the price increase of gasoline, less people will demand for bicycle. The initial change that will occur as a result of this is that as there is a price increase for gasoline, there will be a leftward shift in the demand for bicycle. This implies that less bicycle will be demanded for.

Hofstede isolated four dimensions that he claimed characterized the cultures of different countries. Briefly describe each of hi
adoni [48]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

<u>Hofstede's four dimensions are </u>

1)Power distance -It is the degree of inequality among the people of the country.

2)Individualism Vs Collectivism- This is the degree which shows how much people are willing to work as individuals and not as members of groups.

3)Uncertainty avoidance- This is the degree which shows how much people prefer structured and not unstructured situations.

4)Masculinity Vs Feminity-This shows the degree of existence of tough values like competition, success, assertiveness, performance over tender values like warm personal relation,taking care of weak,unity,quality of life etc.

It is necessary for managers to understand cultural differences because managers need to understand their employees better so that they can motivate and lead the employees.Due to cultural differences what managers take as granted may be different in different countries.Good example is Wal- mart's expansion in Mexico.Wal mart constructed large parking lot for the customers which surrounded the stand alone building.

This posed problem because many of the customers travelled by public buses to the store. So they had to walk a long way through parking lot. The culture in Mexico is different from US and people travelled by public transport.Later Wal mart had shuttle buses to carry people to and fro from the store.Cultural differences also mean deeply felt values ,customs which are not always easy to identify.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

A) attempt to cure the defect

Explanation:

In this scenario Grange Co-op is recieving high quality seed from Fruited Plain. Only half of the high quality seed is available, the other half is made up of lower quality seed that is half the price of the higher quality one.

Since time for performance is not yet expired the best option for Fruited Plain is to attempt to cure the defect in the lower quality seeds and make them high quality.

They also have a lower cost of half what would have been spent on the remaining seeds. This fund can be used to cure the defect in lower quality seeds

Assume that a machine has a useful life of 9 years, and it loses its real value at a constant rate (i.e. 1/9 of the original val
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

$52,435.00

Explanation:

After 3 years the future value of 100,000 at 6 percent will be

FV = PV × (1+r)n

=FV = 100,000 x (1 +0.06)3

FV = 100,000 x 1.191016

FV = 119, 101.60

The interest will be 119, 101.60 - 100,000

=19,101.60

The depreciation over 9 year period, per year will be

=1/9  x 100,000

=11, 111.11  per year

3 year depreciation = 33,333.33( 11,111.11 x 3)

The investment must generate at least

19,101.60 + 33,333.33

=$52,434.93

=$52,435.00
