Answer: Option E
Explanation:
A. Poor quality inventory will not be sold leading to excess of it thus it is a reason.
B. Large set up times will lead to loosing of customers, thus, reason for excess inventory.
C. Unreliable equipment urges for overproduction while the equipment is working efficiently thus it is a reason for excess inventory.
D. Poor employee relationships effects organisation process which might lead to delay in sales thus, a reason for excess inventory.
E. Workers union establishes efficiency in the work performance of labor, thus, it is not a reason in excess inventory.
Answer:
D. Should Shut Down
Explanation:
A perfect competition firm is at profit maximising equilibrium where : Marginal Revenue [Price] = Marginal Cost .
If MR > MC : Firm's additional production is profitable, it tends to increase production. If MR < MC : Firm's additional production is loss making, it tends to decrease production.
However, If firm's Price i.e MR < Average Variable Cost : The firm's per unit price is even unable to cover it's per unit average variable cost. This situation is referred to as 'Shut Down' point & firm should close down its production in the case.
Given : MR = P = 3 ; MC = 4 ; AVC = 3.5 . The firm's price P (3) is not only lesser by its Marginal Cost MC (4), to decrease production ; but also lesser than its Average Variable Cost AVC (3.5) . So, the firm should shut down.
Answer:
B) raise costs and increase demand for its product
Explanation:
A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms operating in an industry. The firms sell differentiated goods and set the market price for their goods and services.
Monopolistic competition engage in advertisement to increase the awareness for their goods.
If advertising is successful , it increases the demand for their goods and services.
Advertising also increases the cost of production.

Temperature danger zone is defined as the specified range of temperature at which micro organisms grow rapidly in food. The danger zone ranges from 40F to 140F. To keep food out of danger zone, cold food must be kept at or below 40F while hot food must be kept at or above 140F. From the question given above, three of the food fall in the temperature danger zone, but cottage cheese is still safe at 40F because of the fermentation process by which it was made and shell egg is still safe at 43F because it has shell to protect it. Thus, the correct answer is POTATO SALAD AT 46F.
