FALSE.

The minimum salary of at least $455/week does not apply for the outside salespeople. There is no salary basis or compensation for outside salespeople to qualify for the "white-collar" exemption.

They only need to meet these requirements:
1) their primary duty is to make sales or obtain orders or contracts for services or contracts for the use of the facilities that clients or customers pay.
2) in performing their primary duty, the salesperson is regularly engaged away from the employer's place of business.

In recent years, the trend among U.S. firms is to outsource the "production" of certain service activities to developing nations

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

We currently live in a globalized world. Globalization is an economic and political phenomenon that has transformed the relations of production and labor. The companies started to produce in countries where the labor is cheaper, becoming consequently more competitive. Thus, US multinational companies outsource the manufacture of components of their products in different territories. For example, an Iphone has components made in China, Vietnam and others. This makes the final price of the iphone lower around the world.

The calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The terms of 2/10, net 30 implies that the firm is entitled to receive a 2 percent discount if it makes payment within 10 days for the goods it bought on term but the seller expects to pay full amount of the amount due in 30 days if it fails to pay within 10 days.

However, since there will be no more discount after the discount period, the cost of trade credit will continue to fall longer the payment is extended. For this question this can be demonstrated using the formula for calculating the cost of trade discount as follows:

Cost of trade discount = {[1 + (discount rate / (1 - discount rate))]^(365/days after discount)} - 1 ................... (1)

We can now applying equation (1) as follows:

For payment in 40 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 40 days)= {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/40)} - 1 = 0.202436246672765, or 20%

For payment in 30 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 30 days) = {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/30)} - 1 = 0.278643315029666, or 28%

Conclusion

Since the 20% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 40 days is lower than 28% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 30 days, the correct option is A. True. That is, the calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.

It is always the intervieweeâ's fault if an interview is bad. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F.

uysha [10]

The statement which states that it is always the intervieweeâ's fault if an interview is bad is false because the blame is shared among the interviewee and the interviewer if he is not responsive to questions.

An interview occurs when an interviewer is asking some questions to an interviewee who he is evaluating to assess his readiness, usually as a preparation or test for a job.

With this in mind, we can see that the correct answer to the question is false because it is not only the responsibility of the interviewee if an interview goes bad.
