lidiya [134]

Answer:

Depreciation base = $27352

Explanation:

The depreciation base is the term used to refer to the value of the asset that qualifies for depreciation. This is generally the cost of the asset less any amount for salvage value or residual value of the asset.

Depreciation base =  Cost - Salvage value

We first need to determine the cost of the machine. The cost of the machine will include the purchase price of the machine plus any cost incurred to bring the machine into the condition and place of its intended use.

Thus, the cost of the machine will be,

<u>Machine Cost</u>

Purchase price          29120

Title fees                    208

Property tax               130

Shipping charges       520

Site preparation cost <u>494  </u>

total cost                    30472

Depreciation base = 30472 - 3120

Depreciation base = $27352

Your company provides diversity training programs to ensure that employees realize the importance of working with a diverse work
mamaluj [8]

Answer: The answer is that motivation is influenced by the value attached to an outcome by an individual's.

Explanation:

Motivation can be defined as the process of arousing the interest of the subordinates towards the achievement of a desired objectives of the organization. The expectancy theory is of the view that an individual will be motivated to perform well as a result of the value attached to an outcome by such an individual known as the valence for the outcome and the probability that it will occur. In the expectancy theory, two probabilities are important, these two probabilities are that, effort will in fact produce the desired performance and that this level of performance will produce the desired outcomes and rewards.

The reinforcement theories on the other hand, explain that an individual tend to exhibit some behaviour when they had been involved in some actions. It shows that an individual will do some action when the result for such an action performed is seen to be positive,but will be unwilling to show some level of interest and enthusiasm in their participation in some actions when they see that the result for such an action is negative. This theory is however, of the view that the positive result that comes out of the actions performed by an individual is capable of influencing a change in the behaviour of such an individual's .

Therefore, we can conclude from the two theories that, employees are not really motivated to perform well in the training program because they do not attached any value to the outcome of the training program.
