Answer:

E) Exchange

Explanation:

I'll include a personal opinion here; Bonuses are probably the best way to increase productivity. You want to earn more money, then you must work harder and earn your bonus.

Exchange tactics are used to offer rewards in exchange for performing a certain way. In this case Gregory is offering a bonus in exchange for an increase in the sales volume. In order for an exchange tactic to be successful, the leader should offer something the other party values and wants. In this case everybody wants more money.

disa [49]

Answer:

$272,000

Explanation:

Accumulated depreciation is the sum of depreciation expense.

Depreciation is a method of expensing the cost of an asset.

Depreciation expense using the straight line depreciation method = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

($700,000 - $20,000) / 5 = $136,000

The straight line depreciation method Deprecation allocates the same deprecation expense each year of the useful life of an asset.

The depreciation expense in 2019 and 2020 would be $136,000 x 2 = $272,000

I hope my answer helps you
