Answer:

social loafing

Explanation:

Social loafing refers to a psychological phenomenon where people who participate in teams will not try their best in order to achieve the team's goals because he/she believes that other team members will do it, and they will either solve the problem or perform the required task. That way they will benefit from other people's work.

This is not something that only happens in businesses, we all have a classmate that doesn't participate in group assignments because he/she knows that the others will complete it and everyone will be graded equally based on the group's performance.

Answer:

A) the total units to be accounted for = 23,980 + 4,600 = 28,580 units

B) the total material equivalent units = 23,980 finished units + 4,600 = 28,580 units

Ben, a product manager at SunRise Juice Co., is having a hard time choosing the wording for a new ready-made fruit smoothie prod
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

  • I think Ben should encourage the Senior Management to call a multidisciplynary meeting and do some research.

Explanation:

<em>I think Ben is right</em>. Even though the statement is technically correct, it may mislead customers.

Customers may interpret the phrase "<em>no sugar added</em>" as if the product did not contain any sugar.

Thus, customers interested in drinking beverages without sugar at all might think  they are "safe" consuming the smoothie beverage, when in reallity each <em>smoothie's bottle contains sugar 35 g of naturally occurring sugars from the fruit.</em>

Customers deserve to be certain on what they are buying, thus the labels must be a sincere help for them, and not ambiguos at all.

This is a "gray zone" and an example of what in ethics is called a dilema.

I think the decision should be shared by a wider team and based on some research.

I think Ben should encourage the Senior Management to call a multidisciplynary meeting, where the subject is widely discussed. Also, I would suggest Ben to do some research, look for precedents about labeling  in the industry, and try to learn the opinion of the FDA about this sensitive matter.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is number "3": doesn't reduce quality or increase price.

Explanation:

Different groups of people within a market imply different needs and preferences pushing companies to diversify in order to fulfill them. Though, one of the main characteristics of that diversification must be accessibility. Companies expect to gain in sales thanks to the segmentation of the market but not necessarily by increasing the price of the new products being sold or decreasing their quality.
