Answer:

The correct answer is C) negligent hiring .

Explanation:

In the United States, negligent hiring is a type of lawsuit made by an injured party against an employer, based on the theory that the employer knew or should know the background of their employee. Background checks (of all kinds, physical and especially criminal and drug use) are some of the ways in which companies prevent themselves from this type of lawsuit.

A manufacturer estimates that its product can be produced at a total cost of C(x) = 50,000 + 100x + x3 dollars. If the manufactu
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The level of production x that will maximize the profit is: 22,966

Explanation:

C(x) = 50,000 + 100x + x³

R(x) = 3400x

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

      = 3400x - [50,000 + 100x + x³]

      = 3400x - 50,000 - 100x - x³

      = 3300x - 50,000 - x³   .................... (A)

P'(x) = 3300(1) - 0 - 3x²

       = 3300 - 3x²

At a critical point, P'(x) = 0

∴   0 = 3300 - 3x²

  3x² = 3300

    x² = 1100

     x = ± \sqrt{1100}

P"(x) = -6x

P(\sqrt{1100}) = -6 (\sqrt{1100})   < 0

by second derivative, 'P' max at    x = \sqrt{1100} = 33.17 (rounds)

since x =  \sqrt{1100} ,

recall that P(x) = 3300x - 50,000 - x³ from equation (A)

Therefore, Maximum Profit

P(\sqrt{1100}) = 3300\sqrt{1100} - 50000 - \sqrt{1100} ^{3}

              = 3300(33.17) - 50,000 - 33.17³

              = 109461 -50,000 - 36495.26

              = 22,965.74

Maximum profit is 22,966 to the nearest whole number

Joe's Tasty Burger has determined that its production facility has a design capacity of 400 hamburgers per day. The effective ca
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Design Capacity Utilization= 75%

Production efficiency = 120%

Explanation:

Okay, so the question is to determine both the design and the effective capacity utilization measures and make a conclusion from there

1. The Capacity Utilization = The Actual Output/ Design Capacity

Actual Output= 300 hamburgers a day

Design Capacity = 400 Hamburgers a day

Therefore Capacity Utilization = 300 hamburgers/400 hamburgers x 100

= 75%

2. The Efficiency of the production = The Actual Output / The Effective Capacity

Actual Output = 300 Hamburgers a  day

Effective Capacity = 250 hamburgers

= 300 Hamburgers/ 250 Hamburgers x 100

= 120%

Conclusion

First we see that the actual utilization of capacity is more better than the effective capacity and this is good. Also, the Design Capacity is higher than the actual capacity utilization which should also be expected as design capacity is a calculation based on ideal conditions that may be not realistic in real life conditions.

Lynna [10]

Answer:

- Behavioural Substitution

Explanation:

Martianse human resources department uses and deploy the concept of Behavioural Substitution.

To begin, Martianse goal, as a firm, is to motivate the employees to perform better. Hence, the human resources department has come up with measures to achieve that. It is thus believed that replacing the fixed incentive system hitherto known with the firm, should be replaced by a performance based system. By this, the firm believes its primary goal will be accelerated.

Behavioural Substitution is thus the concept that the human resources department has displayed in their analysis and engagement. For one, behavioural substitution is simply the procedures aimed at replacing and/or supplanting efforts and actions that does not lead to goal accomplishments. By general belief, the old style of reward system used by Martianse has been seen as one not leading to goal actualization. Hence, it is important to substitute this non productive reward system with one established to elicit more better and improved performance from the workforce.
