iris [78.8K]

Answer: $651,000

Explanation:

From the above question, Apple's iPod carries a two-year warranty against manufacturer's defects.

warranty costs are expected to be approximately 3% of sales.

Doss [256]

Answer:

C. Separating Management from Ownership

Explanation:

What is Agency

The agency refers to contractural, quasi-contractual and non-contractual fiduciary relationships which represents two to three parties. The first is a person called the agent, the second is the principal and the final is a third party. Agency authorizes an agent to act on behalf of the principal and create binding relatinships with a third party.

Agency Conflict

Agency conflict represents a conflict of interest which is unavoidable in an agency relationship where one party is to act in the best interest of the other party. Specifically, in the business or corporate settings, the agency conflict arises when there is a conflict of interest between an organisation's management and the owners of the organisation.

The challenge is that management who is the agent is expected at all times to make decisions that will constantly maximize the wealth of the owners and at times, these decisions would conflict with management's ability to maximize its own wealth

Therefore, once the management of an organisation is separated from ownership especially in a Management/ shareholders relationship, an agency conflict could arise.

Between 2015 and 2016, the country of West Fredonia experienced a growth rate of -2.6%. If nominal GDP had increased by 3.5% and
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

5.5%

Explanation:

Nominal GDP = 3.5%

Economic growth rate = -2.6 %

population growth = 0.6%

To calculate the annual inflation rate :

Economic growth rate = Nominal GDP - %change in price - population growth

-2.6 = 3.5 - %change in price - 0.6  

Therefore the %change in price ( inflation rate ):

inflation rate = 3.5 + 2.6 - 0.6

                      = 3.5 + 2

                       = 5.5%

The inflation rate of a country measures the relative increase increase in the price of commodities without a relative increase in purchasing power
