Answer:
1) B) I'll be sharing some special sales tips with you tomorrow that will make your job easier.
2) B) Your goal for this month is to sell 10% more lattes, and you will receive a reward if you reach it.
3) C) Two days off with pay
Explanation:
1) The <em>E->P expectancy</em> is related to the concept of investing effort into something that you know will lead to the desired performance. It is the part of the expectancy theory that is not related to rewards.
In this example. the goal (task) is to increase sales. The E->P expectancy is the probability that Ethan's efforts will result in the desired performance (increased sales). By giving sales tips to Ethan, he will get more self-esteem and know-how and believe that his effort will in fact result in the desired outcome.
Although this is an overlooked part of the expectancy theory sometimes, it is crucial. Despite the appeal of a particular reward, an employee may not get increased motivation if he/she thinks that the task itself cannot be completed.
2) The <em>P->O expectancy</em> is related to rewards, and it states that employees will get motivated if the desired performance will result in a reward. In this case, Emma's putting the goal (10% increased sales) in direct relation with a reward.
3) Since the Motivation Report states that Ethan is motivated by time off, two days off with pay is the most appealing reward for him. The money bonus is more appropriate for Jon, while a choice of work assignments is better for Blair.
Answer:
85.71%
Explanation:
The computation of the utilization rate is shown below:
Utilization rate = (Actual output ÷ Desired output) × 100
where,
Actual output = 6,000 hammers
Desired output = 7,000 hammers
So, the utilization rate is
= (6,000 hammers ÷ 7,000 hammers) × 100
= 85.71%
By dividing the actual output by the desired output we can get the utilization rate
Answer:
r = 0.235 or 23.5%
Explanation:
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
r = 0.06 + 2.5 * 0.07
r = 0.235 or 23.5%

Answer:
It will take 98 months to pay-off the loan
Explanation:
We need to solve for time (n) in a given annuity:
C $60.00
time n
rate 0.011583333 (0.139 annual / 12 months)
PV $3,500.0000
now, we use logarithmics properties to solve for n:
-n = -97.77655542
n = 97.77 = 98
