Bette and Jamal are partners at a management consulting firm.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Jamal

Explanation:

Given that

Number of required slides = 50 slides

Creating slides Per hour = 15 slides

Bill amount per hour = $750

So by considering the above information, Bette's opportunity cost of creating slides would be

= Bill amount per hour ÷ creating slides per hour

= $750 ÷ 15 per hour

= $50

For making 50 slides, the opportunity cost would be

= $50 × 50 slides

= $2,500

And, Jamal opportunity cost is 30% lower, so it would be  

= $50 - $50 × 30%

= $50 - $15

= $35

And, the billing rate is 25% higher, so it would be

= $750 + $750 × 25%

= $750 + $187.50

= $937.50

So in one hour, it would be

= $937.50 ÷ 35 slides

= 26 slides

Based on the creating slides, the Jamal gains a competitive advantage over Bette

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

You will have 200 shares of stock, and the stock will trade at or near $60 a share.

Explanation:

When a company declares a 2-for-1 stock split, its shares' value is cut by half, while the number of stocks of each share holder doubles.

If, before the split, the stock had a value of $120 per share, after the stock split it will sell for close to $60 a share.

If you previously had a position of 100 shares of Troll Brothers' stock, after the 2-for-1 split you will have 200 shares.

Therefore, you will have 200 shares of stock, and the stock will trade at or near $60 a share.
