According to experienced exporters, what is the only effective way to select a middleman?
Licemer1 [7]

according experienced exporters suggest that the only way to select a middleman is: to personally talk to ultimate consumers to find whom they consider to be the best distributors.

The main consumers are plant-eating herbivores. Caterpillars, insects, grasshoppers, termites, and hummingbirds are all examples of primary consumers, as they only eat autotrophs (plants). There are major consumers who are called specialists because they eat only one type of producer.

Herbivores — animals that eat only plants — consume plants for energy. Herbivores cannot produce their own energy and are called consumers. Herbivores feed only on producers and are therefore primary consumers at the second trophic level of the food chain.

A consumer is any individual or group that purchases or uses goods or services solely for their personal use and not for manufacture or resale. They are the end users of the distribution chain.

balandron [24]

Answer:

65,000 units

Explanation:

Let the number of units be sold = x

Operating Income= Sales- Variable cost – Fixed Cost

Operating Income = 40x - 24x - 560,000

Operating Income = 16x - 560,000

Return on Investment = Operating Income / Net Operating Assets  

16% = (16x - 560,000  )/ 3,000,000

480,000 = 16x - 560,000

16x = 480,000 + 560,000

16x = 1,040,000

x = 65,000 units

Paula Reid is the manager at the Miami office of the U.S. Secret Service who set in motion a major prostitution scandal by repor
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The answer is: She used the justice approach, realizing that the greater good is served because people learn to help each other in their own interest.

Explanation:

Justice approach: an ethical decision is a decision that distributes benefits and costs (or punishments) among those involved in a fair, equitable, and impartial way.

Paula used this approach because she believed the agents had acted improperly and that they were harming the US Secret Service.

I consider any organization a team, so in order for it to work well its members must be respected both by their peers and by the other teams´ members. If you consider the various types of activities this specific agency carries out, other not so friendly "teams" (other secret services or even terrorists) could use this type of information to damage or compromise those activities. So the well being of all the country was being jeopardized by a group of bad agents.
