Nikitich [7]

Answer:

D. Cost-benefit analysis

Explanation:

Cost-benefit analysis can be defined as a strategic approach which typically involves measuring and estimating the overall cost of a project, as well as all possible profits to be derived.

This ultimately implies that, the cost-benefit analysis helps business owners or project managers to weigh the benefits associated with a particular project and how to decide on what decisions (actions) to be taken.

Hence, if the government decides to build a new highway, the first step would be to conduct a study to determine the value of the project. Therefore, this study is generally referred to as cost-benefit analysis because  involves weighing the incremental benefit against the incremental cost of a decision.

In conclusion, when individuals such as decision-makers or project manager, is implementing and executing a project, it is very essential and important that he does a cost-benefit analysis; by weighing the overall and potential benefits or gains to be derived from that project in comparison with the costs of execution. Thus, when the incremental benefits is greater than the incremental cost of the decision, then it is logical and safe to make the move or do it.

Answer:called private speech

Explanation:A Private speech is speech spoken to oneself for communication, self-guidance, and self-regulation of behavior. Children from two to about seven years old can be observed engaging in private speech. Although it is audible, it is neither intended for nor directed at others.

Private speech is self-talk children (and adults) may use to guide actions and aid in thinking. While Piaget may view private speech as egocentric or immature, Vygotsky understood the importance of self-directed speech.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

-$976

Explanation:

Adison winery has beginning long term debt of $41,436 and ending long term debt of $46,883

The beginning and ending total balance were $51,283 and $56,480

The company paid an interest is $4,471

Therefore the company cash flow to creditors can be calculated as follows

= $4,471-($46,883-$41,436)

= $4,471 - $5,447

= -$976

Hence the operating cash flow to the creditors is -$976
