Answer:

6 pounds of dried apples and 14 pounds of dried apricots

Explanation:

A = dried apples

B = dried apricots

1.3A + 1.6B = 1.51 x 20 = 30.2

A + B = 20

A = 20 - B

Replace A:

1.3(20 - B) + 1.6B = 30.2

26 - 1.3B + 1.6B = 30.2

0.3B = 30.2 - 26 = 4.2

B = 4.2 / 0.3 = 14

A = 6

Discuss about Financial System and its impact on the strategic Financial Management <br><br>​
klio [65]

Answer:

The modern Financial System is based on a central bank that controls the monetary base (but not the money supply), and in fractional reserve banking. The implicaton of this, is that banks loan out some of the money that they obtain as deposits, and in this process they create money.

Explanation:

The Financial System is influenced by this process of money creation, because when the money that circulates in the economy (the money supply) changes, interest rates also change.

Interest rates are the price of investment, and the most important indicator that a financial manager has to take into account when making a financing decision.

Financial managers must also take into account the different types of financial institutions that exist, from hedge funds, to commercial banks, to cooperatives, and the different types of securities, from stocks, to bonds, to derivatives and futures.

givi [52]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": payment plans.

Explanation:

<em>Highly ethical organizations</em> are those with a well-established <em>Code of Ethics </em>that comprises its <em>corporate credos and values.</em> Within a company, the idea of having "<em>heroes</em>" also helps to spread good practices since they are taken as <em>role models </em>so other employees tend to follow their example. Managers must be aware of the ethical behavior of employees to correct or eliminate any existing threat.

Thus, <em>having different payment plans are not considered in the setting of a corporation's Code of Ethics. </em>
