Answer:

(a)<u> Backward vertical integration</u> (b) <u>Forward vertical integration</u> (c) <u>Backward vertical integration</u>

Explanation:

(a) An academic medical center is an example of backward vertical integration. The specialist and faculties from the university will provide treatment to the patients. Such medical centers have tertiary service with several intermediaries.

(b) Here, there is no intermediary between patients and general surgery group. The general surgery group treat patients directly. So here there is a forward vertical integration system.

(c) A manufacturer of durable medical equipment will supply to retailers who in turn supply these to hospitals where the patients will receive service from these equipment. So, it is an example of backward vertical integration.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Individual                   Cost                                Shares to be enjoyed

Mabel                      $10,000                            10000 / 150000 =  6.67%

Gertrude                 $20000                            20000 / 150000 = 13.3%

Myron                      $30000                            30000 / 150000 = 20%

Wilber                      $40000                            40000 / 150000 = 26.6%

You                          $50000                            50000 / 150000 = 33.3%

Explanation:

peaked preferences

Most preferred value to spend :

Mabel = $10,000

Gertrude = $20,000

Myron = $30,000

Wilber = $40,000

you = $50,000

cost of Condo = $150,000

<u>Implementing a Uniform rule mechanism to allocate costs and shares </u>

The uniform rule ; ∑ j∈I Uj (p) = Ω.

where Ω = fixed amount of resource

hence the summation of all allotment should = Ω ( $150,000 )

Number of friends = 5

cost of condo  = $150,000

If divide equally each person will have to pay ; $150,000 / 5 = $30,000

Total money to be spent by friends = 10,000 + 20,000 + 30,000 + 40,000 + 50,000  = $150,000

Individual                   Cost                                shares to be enjoyed

Mabel                      $10,000                            10000 / 150000 =  6.67∑%

Gertrude                 $20000                            20000 / 150000 = 13.3%

Myron                      $30000                            30000 / 150000 = 20%

Wilber                      $40000                            40000 / 150000 = 26.6%

You                          $50000                            50000 / 150000 = 33.3%

∑shares ≈ 100% ( 150,000 )
