Answer:

To improve connection with your audience and create empathy.

Explanation:

When you disclose a little bit about yourself, your audience is able to see you as a normal person and they will be able to relate themselves to you (empathy).

Usually you should try to share information about both your faults and strengths, and not just only your outstanding capabilities which will make your audience dislike you.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

(a) (i) Define the term "Green Revolution" as used during the period 1945 to 1985.

The use of modern agricultural techniques became widespread around many regions in the world. This led to higher yields through the use of fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified seeds and mechanical machinery.

(ii) Explain the principal agricultural practices/technologies associated with the green revolution.

extensive use of fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified seeds and mechanical machinery.

(iii) Name TWO regions, in different parts of the world, where the green revolution has had a significant impact on crop yields.

In North America, Mexican food production increased and they stopped importing food. Although currently that has reversed, and it is importing even more food than before.
In Brazil, agricultural production increased dramatically. Both total farmed area and yields have continued to increase in the past years becoming a threat to the amazon basin.

(b) Identify and discuss TWO social, political, or cultural conditions necessary for the success of the agricultural practices/technologies of the green revolution.

Emigration from rural areas to urban areas which resulted in a rapid expansion of urban centers. Since less labor was needed in farms, many people left rural areas due to lack of jobs.
People started accepting genetically modified crops, which were not well accepted at first. A lot of money was invested in research and development of new seeds, fertilizers and pesticides.

(c) Identify and discuss TWO significant economic or ecological factors that may limit the long-term success of the agricultural practices/technologies of the green revolution.

Many new agricultural techniques have resulted in a decrease of soil fertility. In many places crops cannot grow unless a lot of fertilizer is used.
Countries were the green revolution was originally successful, like Mexico (where it started), have reduced the total area dedicated to crops. As the yields increased, the price of food started to decrease and many small farms could not keep operating.

Your broker requires an initial margin of $878 per futures contract on wheat and a maintenance margin of $650 per contract. Whea

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

b. Call for $1,500

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We can calculate the amount of margin call by using following formula:-

Loss of today = future contracts based total bushels × total contract × (settlement cost per bushels - future contract price per bushels)

= 5,000 cents × 6 × (390 cents - 385 cents)

= 5,000 cents × 6 × 5 cents

= 150,000 cents

And we know that

100 cents = 1 dollar

so,

150,000 cents ÷ 100 =$1,500

Initial margin $878 per future contract and maintenance margin $650 per contract, Margins of both are less than loss .So we have to pay $1,500 in initial margin.

According to the analysis, we will receive $1,500 margin call.

Therefore option (B) call for $1,500 is correct.

stira [4]

The question is incomplete:

Clare, a florist, opened a new store and wanted to purchase a new refrigeration display cabinet for fresh-flower arrangements. She entered into a deal with Alpha Refrigeration Systems for two refrigeration units at $600 each. But, after delivering the units, the salesperson demanded another $100 as delivery charges, which was not mentioned in the deal. Identify the win-lose strategy used by the salesperson.

-Good guy-bad guy routine

-Browbeating

-Red herring

-Trial balloon

-Lowballing

Answer:

-Red herring

Explanation:

-Goog buy-bad guy routine is a strategy in which one person appears to be on your side and when you get to an agreement, this person goes to the bad guy for approval who will renegotiate.

-Browbeating is a strategy in which the buyer tries to affect the saleperson atittude by saying unflattering things.

-Red herring is a strategy in which one of the parties tries to distract the other one from certain isues to get an advantage.

-Trial balloon is an strategy in which one of the parties says something to the other one to get information about its position in the negotiation.

-Lowballing is an strategy in which the buyer makes a really low offer to test the seller.

According to the definitions, the answer is that the win-lose strategy used by the salesperson is red herring because Clara didn't consider the information related to the delivery when purchasing the units as she was probably distracted by other aspects and didn't consider this.
