Answer:

c. The wide latitude of these nondirective interviews can result in low reliability and often poor validity.

Explanation:

Lexie likes to do interviews, to candidates who apply for a job at her company, with indirect questions. She starts the interview, asking the candidate to talk about himself.

This question can be a bit of a question to ask in a job interview. This is because there is a huge range of possible answers for this, and the result can be generic or fanciful responses that do not reveal real things about the candidate, in addition to not showing how efficient he would be for the company.

Identify how to calculate nominal interest rates and real interest rates. Assume that you put $100 in the bank. Use numeric exam
Alik [6]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

To answer this question we will assume that the Nominal Interest rate is equal to 10% then we can be free to manipulate the Real Interest Rate.

Now the Real Interest Rate is the Nominal Interest Rate adjusted for inflation in the following manner,

Real interest rate= Nominal interest rate - inflation rate.

Let's go through 3 scenarios now.

1. REAL interest rate is positive.

If the Real Interest rate is positive, that would mean that Inflation rate is LESS than the Nominal Interest rate.

Assuming the inflation rate is 5% then that would mean that real interest rate is,

= 10% - 5%

= 5%.

Seeing as you have $100 in the bank. If using Nominal Rates alone you would have earned,

= 100 * (1+0.1)

= $110

However with a rate that caters for inflation (Real Interest Rate) you would earn only,

= 100 * (1 + 0.05)

= $105

2. REAL interest rate stays the same

If the Real Interest rate does not change, that would mean that Inflation rate is EQUAL to Nominal Interest rate.

Assuming the inflation rate is 10% then that would mean that real interest rate is,

= 10% - 10%

= 0% meaning that there was no change.

You have that same $100 in the bank. If using Nominal Rates alone you would have earned,

= 100 * (1+0.1)

= $110

However with a rate that caters for inflation (Real Interest Rate) you would earn only,

= 100 * (1 + 0.00)

= $100

Your money in the bank would in REAL TERMS not have changed because whatever profit you made was wiped out by inflation.

3. REAL interest rate is negative.

If the Real Interest rate is negative, that would sadly mean that Inflation rate is MORE than the Nominal Interest rate.

Assuming the inflation rate is 15% then that would mean that real interest rate is,

= 10% - 15%

= -5%.

Seeing as you have $100 in the bank. If using Nominal Rates alone you would have earned,

= 100 * (1+0.1)

= $110

However with a rate that caters for inflation (Real Interest Rate) you would earn only,

= 100 * (1 - 0.05)

= $95

If inflation were to be catered for, the value of your money has actually decreased from $100 to $95 because inflation rose at a faster rate than nominal inflation. This means that the money you had can buy only 95% of what it could before.

This is why the Real Interest Rate is Important. It shows you whether you are actually making a profit based on the rate at which prices are rising in the Economy. It is crucial that the Real Rate is calculated so that you get adequate compensation for your Investment.

The Porch Cushion Company manufactures foam cushions. The number of cushions to be produced in the upcoming three months follows
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: 25,200 pounds

Explanation:

Your question is incomplete as it lacked the first part. I attached a completion that I found.

The company has a policy that the ending inventory of foam each month must be equal to 30% of the following month's expected production needs.

This means that in August, the Opening inventory will be 30% of what was is needed in August and the Closing Inventory will be 30% of what is needed in September.

Remember that each cushion requires 2 pounds of foam as stuffing.

Pounds required in August

= 12,000 cushions * 2

= 24,000 pounds

Opening Stock

= 30% * (12,000 * 2)

= 7,200 pounds

Closing stock

= 30% * ( 14,000 * 2)

= 8,400 pounds.

Foam needed to be purchased in August = Pounds required tonbe produced + Closing Stock - Opening Stock

= 24,000 + 8,400 - 7,200

= 25,200

25,200 pounds of foam are what The Porch Cushion Company needs to purchase in August.
