Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": Positive reinforcement and punishment.
Explanation:
In the Operant Conditioning Method proposed by B.F. Skinner (1904-1990), positive reinforcement refers to the set of actions individuals do to increase the behavior of other individuals. On the other hand, positive punishment aims to decrease behaviors in individuals by prompting undesirable stimuli.
Thus, <em>Jim is implementing positive reinforcement through incentives for workers meeting certain corporate goals and positive punishment by withholding those incentives from employees who get late, take long breaks or act unprofessionally</em>.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
$873,200
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of merchandise sold is shown below:
= Merchandise inventory, July 1  + Purchases - Purchases returns and allowances - Purchases discounts - Freight in - Merchandise inventory, July 31 
= $49,300 + $985,500 - $33,500 - $19,700 - $13,800 - $94,600
= $873,200
We simply added the purchase amount and deduct all other items except Increase in estimated returns inventory to the opening balance of merchandise inventory
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
a. $125
b. $10,300
c. $10,425
Explanation:
a. The computation of the explicit cost is shown below:
Explicit cost = Purchase of office supplies + Monthly electricity bill
                     = $75 + $50
                     = $125
b. The computation of the implicit cost is shown below:
Implicit cost = Lost of salary + rent out amount lost
                     = $10,000 + $300
                     = $10,300
c. The computation of the cost is shown below:
Economic cost = Explicit cost + Implicit cost
                          = $125 + $10,300
                          = $10,425
