Answer:

This is based on the micro-economics concept,

MRP=MRC

The principle states that in order to maximize profit a firm should employ the quantity of a resource at which its marginal revenue product (MRP) is equal to its marginal resource cost (MRC)

MRC is the wage rate in pure competition and in this case.

As each worker will bring in at least as much revenue as their wages cost. If the wage was $25, you would hire 4 workers. The MRC is 25 and MRP is 30, thus if a 5th worker would be hired, the amount paid would exceed the MRC, or what is coming in, thus you cannot increase to a fifth worker.

In practice, a common way to value a share of stock when a company pays dividends is to value the dividends over the next five y
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Stock Price in 5 years: $97.94. Stock Price Today: $55.575

Explanation:

A pay-out ratio is computed by dividing dividends per share over earnings per share. Meanwhile, PE or Price-Earnings Ratio is computed by dividing the market value of stocks over earnings per share. Thus, using the pay-out ratio formula, the earnings per share is 2.925 ($1.17/40%) and using the PE ratio formula, the market price of stocks today is $55.575 (19 x 2.925). After 5 years, multiplying 1.17 and 12% rate raised to the 5th power, the dividend will amount to $5.1548. Using pay-out ratio, earnings per share is 5.1548 ($2.0619/40%) and the market price of stock after 5 years is $97.94 ($5.1548 x 19).

The total cost of Jurislon to be purchased in August is: Multiple Choice $1,839,600 $1,208,700 $1,014,300 $1,017,000
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:  $‭1,014,300‬

Explanation:

The company wants to maintain 20% of the next month's needs as ending inventory.

One Miniwap requires 2.5 kg of Jurision to be made.

Materials purchased is;

= Ending inventory + Materials used - Begining inventory

Ending Inventory;

= 20% of September Jurision

= 20% * 21,300 * 2.5

= 10,650 kg

Materials used

= 2.5 kg * August Miniwaps

= 2.5 * 22,600

= 56,500 kg

Materials Purchased = 10,650 + 56,500 - 10,800

= 56,350‬ kg

Cost of Jurision is $18 per kilo

= 56,350‬ * 18

= $‭1,014,300‬

Imagine that a food critic visits your restaurant and writes a positive review that was then published in a magazine. This is an
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Good Quality or Service

Explanation:

This is a very general question however I’ll try to answer it to the best of my knowledge.

This is an example of Good Quality or Service OR Public Relations or Promotion.

Good Quality or Service – The food quality or the service at the Restaurant must be very good that the food critic was so impressed that he/she published this review on the magazine so that others may try the delicious food of this Restaurant.

Public Relations or Promotion – Regardless of the food quality or the service at the Restaurant, the restaurant owner had paid the food critic/blogger to post good reviews about his/her Restaurant in the magazine which would attract more customers to this Restaurant.

In my opinion, Good Quality or Service is more relevant in this scenario.
