Answer: D. During an economic downturn, a company changes its computer policy to only allow purchases of windows-based laptops and see profits go down. The company concludes that windows-based laptops cause profits to go down

Explanation:

In the other options, the new activity done by the company were definite causes of the effects that followed. A more efficient production process will cause gains in productivity. Coupons will bring in more sales and paying employees more will encourage them to engage in more sales.

Concluding that a computer type causes profits to go down however in a period where the economy as a whole is buying less, is simply correlation. In an economic downturn, people are buying less goods in general. The laptops will be no exception and it is not a reflection of people's preference or lack thereof of them.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Selling price per unit = $48

Desired profit margin on sales = 12.5%

Flyer’s current full cost for the product = $44 per unit

Profit = Selling price × profit margin

         = $48 × 12.5%

         = $6

Target cost of unit = Selling price - Profit

                               = $48 - $6

                               = $42

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

A- Group think

Explanation:

In group think, bad decisions are often made because, rather than consider other alternatives, a group of people agree to a decision suggested by, in most cases, the most superior party in the room.

This form of thinking hides true opinions of other members of the group and though the decision is agreed upon, they could truly not want to be a part of the process.

In this scenario, there is an agreement with the Senior Executive on the plan of action however, nobody is interested in taking up the responsibility to follow through with the plan. This indicates a level of disagreement of other members with the plan regardless of the initially stated agreement with the plan.
