Answer:

Letter A. Quality through constant innovation and quality assurance training.

Explanation:

Alternative A is correct, as W. Edwards Deming was a pioneer scholar in the application of organizational quality management.

He was responsible for creating the 14 points, which are principles for management that will help the organization to achieve total quality. He was also responsible for popularizing the PDCA Cycle (PLAN, DO, CHECK, ACT), which is a strategic tool widely used worldwide to ensure continuous improvement and the quality of processes and products.

PLAN: define objectives, methods and resources.
DO: Perform, educate and train.
CHECK: Measure and evaluate
ACT: act correctly.

Continuous improvement can be achieved through the correct and targeted use of the PDCA cycle towards organizational objectives. For Deming, without continuous improvement, there is no survival of the organization in the market, so he argues that continuous improvement must be implemented in all phases of the project, to achieve the benefits of continuous improvement of processes, increased productivity and reduced costs.

Joanne and ed greenwood built a new barn with an attached arena. to finance the loan, they paid $1,307 interest on $45,000 at 4.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: The loan was taken for 265 days.

We arrive at the answer as follows:

First we find the ratio of interest paid to the total loan amount to determine the interest rate:

Interest paid = $1,307

Loan Amount = $45,000

$\frac{Int paid}{Loan amount} = \frac{1307}{45000} = 0.029044444$

Since the interest rate calculated above is less than the annual interest rate at 4%, we conclude that the loan taken was for a period of less than one year.

We can determine the period for which the loan was taken as follows:

Let 'x' be the time for which the loan was taken.

We need to solve for x in the proportion below

0.04 : 365 :: 0.029044444:x

Solving we get,

$\frac{0.04}{365} = \frac{0.029044444}{x}$

$x = \frac{0.029044444 * 365}{0.04}$

$x = 265.0305556$
