Hofstede studied how culture influences consumer behavior. When a Japanese company decides that it will be willing to lose money

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Temporal orientation.

Explanation:

Holland psychologist Geert Hofstede (1928-2020) proposed there are five dimensions of culture among societies. Those are: <em>Power Distance Index, Individualism Versus Collectivism, Masculinity versus Femininity, Uncertainty Avoidance Index, </em>and<em> Long- Versus Short-Term Orientation. </em>

Long- Versus Short-Term Orientation <em>or </em>Temporal Orientation <em>represents the time horizon individuals of a given society display. Long-term oriented countries are pragmatic, modest and emphasize virtues. Therefore, the Japanese company of the case would be displaying this type of culture by prioritizing objectives for over twenty years rather than two years.</em>

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: 2,000; 0.4

Explanation:

We can write the initial consumption function as,

C = a + bY

8,000 = a + 10,000b

a = 8,000 - 10,000b

The new consumption function is,

14,000 = a + 20,000b

Putting value of a in this function

14,000 = 8,000 - 10,000b + 20,000b

14,000 - 8,000 = 10,000b

b  = \frac{6,000}{10,000}

b = 0.6

Putting the value of b in the initial function,

8,000 = a + 10,000 \times0.6

a = 8,000 - 6,000

a = $2,000

The marginal propensity to consume or b is 0.6.

The marginal propensity to save will be

= 1 - 0.6

= 0.4
