What is the similar about negative growth rate and zero growth rate?

2 answers:

3 0

The similarity of negative growth rate and zero growth rate is that there is no growth towards a positive output. For example, if the business is currently in either state, it is not earning. It may be very stagnant (for zero growth rate) or losing (for negative growth rate). Which either the case may be, it is not beneficial to the business owner.

Answer:

Zero growth rate represents that a country's population is not growing, that means that the total number of births during a year were equal to the total number of deaths during that year, e.g. Iceland, Germany, Portugal, and Poland.

A negative growth rate means that more people died in the country than the number of people born during that year, e.g. Italy, Japan, Russia, and Ukraine.

The similarities between countries that experience either a zero growth rate or a negative growth rate is that in the long run the economy will face extremely serious problems. Several countries are starting to face problems related to an increase in the number of retirees and a decrease in the total work force. As the number of total working adults decreases, the government's revenue decreases, but since the number of retirees increases, the government spending increases, creating a huge budget deficit.

DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS

Reject (Alternative 1) or Accept (Alternative 2)

March 16

Reject Accept Differentials Effect on income

(Alternative 1) (Alternative 2) (Alternative 2)

Revenue per unit $0.00 $7.20 $7.20

Costs:

Variable manufacturing costs per unit

$0.00 -$5.00 -$5.00

Export tariff per unit

$0.00 -$1.08 -$1.08

($7.20*15%=$1.08)

Income (Loss) per unit $0.00 $1.12 $1.12

b. Based on the above differential analysis

<h3>What is a total stockholder’s equity?</h3>

The total stockholders' equity means the total value of assets that remains in a business after all the total liabilities have been settled.

However, the stockholders' equity is the most important for rewarding stockholder investment because it is the basis at which a dividend for the stockholder will be calculated.

Each machine must be run by one of 19 cross-trained workers who are each available 35 hours per week. The plant has 10 type 1 ma

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The Linear programming model is given as below

Profit Function: $P=90X+120Y+150Z$

Constraints:

$2X+2Y+Z\leq 400$

$3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240$

$4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320$

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10$

$\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6$

$\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8$

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19$

Explanation:

As the question is not complete, the complete question is found online and is attached herewith.

Let the number of product 1 to be produced is X, that of product 2 is Y and product 3 is Z

so the maximizing function is the profit function which is given as

$P=90X+120Y+150Z$

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 10 type 1 machines so the total number of machine 1 hours are 40*10=400 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 2 machine hours of machine 1, product 2 uses 2 machine hours of machine 1 and product 3 uses 1 hour of machine 1 so

$2X+2Y+Z\leq 400$

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 6 type 2 machines so the total number of machine 2 hours are 40*6=240 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 3 machine hours of machine 2, product 2 uses 4 machine hours of machine 2 and product 3 uses 6 hour of machine 2 so

$3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240$

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 8 type 3 machines so the total number of machine 3 hours are 40*8=320 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 4 machine hours of machine 3, product 2 uses 6 machine hours of machine 3 and product 3 uses 5 hour of machine 3 so

$4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320$

Now as the machine 1 is used as 2X+2Y+Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10$

Now as the machine 2 is used as 3X+4Y+6Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

$\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6$

Now as the machine 3 is used as 4X+6Y+5Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

$\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8$

Now the workers are available for 35 hours so the worker available at the machine 1 is given as

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}$

That of machine 2 is given as

$\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}$

That of machine 3 is given as

$\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}$

As the total number of workers is 19 so the constraint is given as

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19$

So the Linear programming model is given as below

Profit Function: $P=90X+120Y+150Z$

Constraints:

$2X+2Y+Z\leq 400$

$3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240$

$4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320$

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10$

$\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6$

$\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8$

$\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19$

algol [13]

Answer:

Sales Revenue - Inconsistent

Cost of Goods Sold - Inconsistent

Commission - Consistent

Shipping expense - Inconsistent

Bad debt expense - Unexplained

Salaries - Consistent

Lease of distribution center - Consistent

Depreciation of fleet and equipment - Inconsistent

Advertising - Consistent

Office rent, Phone, Internet - Inconsistent

Explanation:

The increase in selling price will result in change in the revenue figure. The cost of distribution is increased due to handling the addition volume. This will result in an increase in shipping expense and cost of goods sold. Salaries and commission of the staff will remain consistent as there will be no change due to increase of selling price.
