Answer:

The mean income is the average income of all households in the country, while the median income divides the total into two groups, those who earn above the median and those who earn below the median (i.e. the median would be middle point.)

If income inequality has increased then the mean income should rise above the median income since it is affected by extremes, e.g. the 10% richest earn 9 times more income than the lower 90%.

Since we are not given the increase in income inequality, we can assign any positive slope to the mean income.

Suppose that the demand for my new book, Spatulas From Around the World, is such that the demand curve lies everywhere below the
dsp73

Answer:

C. Shut down the presses printing my book

Explanation:

Since the average variable cost of producing the book is above the demand curve, the best course of action is to shut down the printing (production) of more books. The author would lose less money by shutting down operations rather than continuing production at a variable cost higher than the demand he's receiving for the books.

In economics, when profit is less than the average variable cost, firms are advised to stop production in the short run and incur economic loss on fixed inputs. This is because with continued operations, total revenue would not only be lower than total cost, but rather, would also be less than total variable cost.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

involve the current receptionist in the decision process.

Explanation:

When changes are to be made that will affect an employee, the best way to reduce resistance to the change is to involve the employee in the decision-making process.

By involving the employee they will get to see the benefits of the new initiative and this will also convince them that it is for the good of the business and not a ploy to replace them.

Employees have a higher buying and will drive implementation more when they were part of the process for change.

Assume lawyer services are priced by the hour and elasticity of demand for a particular lawyer is 0.6. If she were to increase h
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

C. Fall, 30%, Rise

Explanation:

  • Price Elasticity of Demand is responsive change in demand, due to change in price.

P.Ed = % change in demand / % change in price.

Given : Price rise by 50% , P.Ed = 0.6

So, % change in demand = P.ed x % change in price

% change in demand = 0.6 (50)

% change in demand = 30%

Law of demand states negative relationship between price & demand, so P.ed is negative. Price rise 50% reduces demand by 30%.

  • P.Ed can be : Elastic ( > 1 ), or Inelastic ( < 1 ).  If P.Ed is Elastic, price & total revenue are inversely related. If P.Ed is Inelastic, price & total revenue are directly related.

So, Given PEd = 0.6 (i.e < 1 ) : Inelastic Demand implies price & total revenue are directly related related to each other. So, price fall lead to TR fall & price rise lead to TR rise.

According to the _____________ of Alderfer’s ERG theory, an already-satisfied lower-level need can become reactivated when a hig
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

regression theory

Explanation:

According to the <u>regression theory</u> of Alderfer’s ERG theory, an already-satisfied lower-level need can become reactivated when a higher-level need cannot be satisfied.

Alderfer proposed a regression theory to go along with the ERG theory, where he propounded that <u>when needs in a higher category are not met then individuals redouble the efforts invested in a lower category need.</u>

For example if self-actualization or self-esteem needs in the Maslow's hierarchy of needs are not met then individuals will invest more effort in the physiological and safety category in the hopes of achieving the higher need.
