Answer:
The fraud was discovered Option D: The operations manager found a check made payable to Phillips while searching Phillips' desk for some accounting records.
Explanation:
In the given case study, Ernie Phillips had got a job as a 'controller'. He had started writing checks to himself other than the payroll checks.
This fraud can be discovered when the operations manager found a check on Phillips desk which was payable to himself and it was other than the payroll check. Thus, Option D is the statement as an answer.
Cancelled checks do not have to do anything with the fraud, as per Option A, because cancelled checks are never cleared in the bank. The receiver doesn't usually receive a call before check clearance. So, Option B is also incorrect. No error was there in the check as stated in Option C.
Answer:
pat should drive if saving half an hour is worth $0.50 or more
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the additional cost generated by producing an additional unit of output.
Marginal cost of taking the bus = 1 / 2 = 0.50
Marginal utility is the additional utility derived from consuming one more unit of a good
Marginal utility per good = marginal utility / price of the good
Pat should take the action that would yield him the highest utility given the marginal cost
So,pat should drive if saving half an hour is worth $0.50 or more
Answer:
C) 0.9.
Explanation:
The calculation of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:
Price elasticity of demand is
= (Change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (Change in price ÷ average of price)
where,
q1 = 11
q2 = 9
p1 = $100
p2 = $125
So,
= {(9 - 11) ÷ (9 + 11) ÷ 2} ÷ {($125 - $100) ÷ ($125 + $100) ÷ 2 }
= {-2 ÷ 10} ÷ {25 ÷ 112.5 }
= -0.9
= 0.9
I believe the answer is d. I hope it was right and I helped!
