Degger [83]

Answer:

a) attached below.

b) for $x < $5000 will cause taking the drug to be part of the Nash equilibrium

c) will make the athletes feel better because the value their payoff will increase

Explanation:

a) 2 * 2 payoff matrix describing the decision faced by the athletes

attached below

when both players take the drug the payoff for each player = $5000 - x

when neither player takes the drug the payoff for each player = $5000

When only one player takes the drug his payoff = $10000 - x

b) If we consider the value of $x to be involved in the Nash equilibrium then

; $5000 - $x > 0 becomes the best response

hence for $x < $5000 will cause taking the drug to be part of the Nash equilibrium

c) Lowering the negative effect of the drug ( i.e. when the value of x is reduced )

will make the athletes feel better because the value their payoff will increase

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The cost of equipment = $127,650

Explanation:

According to International Accounting Standards (IAS) 16, property plants and equipment, the cost of land includes all of the cost necessary to bring and make it ready for the intended use.

These costs include purchase cost, fees and commission associated with the purchase transaction.

Here in this question the installation charges, sales taxes and the cost of concrete slab all fall within the definition of IAS 16

The quotation 4/10, n/30 implies that if payment is made within =10 days, Crane would get 4% off the initial purchase price.

Since the payment was made within the discounted period, the net purchase price would be

Purchase price = 120,000 - (4%× 120,000)= 115,200

The cost of equipment = 115,200 +4,750 + 2,100 + 5600= 127650

The cost of equipment = $127,650

why do companies have middle management instead of just having senior management that retains all power in the organization?

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Small companies don't have middle management, so it is entirely appropriate for senior management to implement strategy and guide employees directly.

The purpose of management is nothing to do with power, but rather to create, plan and execute the vision and strategy of the organization through the workforce and technology.
