Answer: NO. His approach to motivating employees is NOT ETHICAL.

Ethical is relating to the accepted principles of right and wrong, especially those of some organization or profession.

In any Organisation or morally, lying is wrong. Being ethical means conforming to accepted moral standards. Morally, lying is wrong. That's exactly what Tom Klem has done here.

Why are financial intermediaries willing to engage in information collection activities when investors in financial instruments
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

C. Banks make private​ loans; their conclusions on who is creditworthy are not made public.

Explanation:

Investors in financial instruments who engage in information collection face a free-rider problem, which means other investors may be able to benefit from their information without paying for it.

Individual investors, therefore, have inadequate incentives to devote resources to gather information about borrowers who issue securities.

Jan's Bakery is considering a merger with Tina's Cookies. Jan's total operating costs of producing services are $300,000 for a s
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Jan's Bakery and Tina Cookies

Total Average Cost for the merged firm

= ($300,000 + $75,000)/2

= $187,500

Explanation:

The total average cost for Jan's Bakery and Tina's Cookies is the average of their total operating costs.  This is obtained by adding $300,000 to $75,000 and then dividing by 2.

Though, in practical terms, the presence of some synergies will cut some of the operating costs off, especially such costs as rent, advertising, and some other administrative costs.  Some selling costs will also be eliminated when the merger goes through.

Why does an oligopoly only work if there are high barriers to entry in a market?
erastovalidia [21]
An oligopoly is the limitation of competition. If you can keep competitors out of the marketplace, you have more of a chance to make a profit. If you are in a business with a very high capital outlay or you have an extremely well trained labor force that your competitors can't match then you have effectively created or have created for you a very high barrier. Hence an oligopoly.

Universal Exports is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $8, $4, $2, and $2. Afterwards the compan
omeli [17]

Answer:

$23.25

Explanation:

the maximum that you would be willing to pay for a stock of Universal today can be determined using the multistage dividend discount model

The first step is to find the present value of the dividends over the next four years :

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 = $8

Cash flow in year 2 = $4

Cash flow in year 3 = $2

Cash flow in year 4 = $2

I = 15%

Present value = $12.44

Next we would find the present value of the perpetual growth of dividend

($2 x 1.04 ) / 0.15 - 0.04 = 18.91

the present value of this amount = $18.91 / = $10.81

Maximum value = $12.44 + $10.81 = $23.25

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute
