Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

A rule for maximizing utility  is that if an individual wants to maximize total utility, for every dollar that is spent, he/she should spend it on the commodity that yields the greatest marginal utility per dollar of expenditure.

In the scenario presented above, we can see that the marginal utilities per dollar for both commodities that Jane consumes are equal, therefore she can neither increase or decrease spending on any particular commodity in order to increase or decrease its marginal utility, this is because she gets an equal amount of marginal utility from both commodities.

Therefore, with the same amount of money, Jane cannot increase utility.

Critics of the North American Free Trade Agreement argued that opening our borders to free trade with Mexico would result in U.S
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The criticism is true to a certain degree, and unjustified to another degree.

Explanation:

It is true in the sense that the U.S. has indeed lost a lot of manufacturing to Mexico, simply because Mexico has far lower labor costs, and U.S. manufacturers have decided to take advantage of that by taking their plants to Mexican states.

It is also true that Mexico has been running a trade surplus with the United States in recent years, mainly because of the large manufacturing sector that Mexico has been developing.

On the other hand, the criticism is unjustified because neither a trade deficit nor the moving of manufacturing to Mexico mean that the United States as a whole is in worst condition than before NAFTA. In fact, most economists agree that free trade is a good thing for the economy as a whole, and that most people benefit from the lower costs and specialization that trade brings about.

The problem lies then, in the people who lose their jobs: formerly unionized manufacturing workers from the Rust Belt, for example. These people need to be helped with government assitance, both in terms of welfare, and training, so that they can find new jobs and make ends meet in the meanwhile.

The formula for highest is =MAX(F15,F16).

The formula for lowest is =MIN(G15,G16).

In MS Excel, on the left hand side below the tool bar there is a small box which tells the cell name where the cursor is clicked, the name of the cell can be changed from here easily, click on the desired cell and then by clicking on the box you can enter the name of the cell. After a cell is renamed the formula can be written by simply putting the name of the cell instead of the original e.g. E13

The formula for average is =AVERAGE(E15,E16).

The formula for highest is =MAX(F15,F16).

The formula for lowest is =MIN(G15,G16).

The cells provided in the formula above is just an example and more than two cells can be selected.

Ross has decided that he wants to build enough retirement wealth that, if invested at 6 percent per year, will provide him with
Masja [62]

Answer:

Monthly savings= $3,584.42

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Ross has decided that he wants to build enough retirement wealth that, if invested at 6 percent per year, will provide him with $4,600 of monthly income for 30 years. To date, he has saved nothing, but he still has 20 years until he retires.

First, we need to find the final value.

FV= (4,600*12)*30= $1,656,000

Now, we can calculate the monthly deposit:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

i= 0.06/12= 0.005

n= 20*12= 240

A= (1,656,000*0.005)/[(1.005^240)-1]= 8,280/ 2.31= $3,584.42

Who was your most difficult customer?
jeka57 [31]

Answer: when I was working at AXA as a Financial Advisor, my most difficult clients or customers are the SKEPTICAL CUSTOMERS ( their ask much questions and always doubt everything you say).

one of the days I never meet a clients need, was the day a client wants to liquidate his money market investment ( it's a fixed account where clients deposit money and expect good returns or interest when ever they want to cash out the money). The clients wants his money immediately, but at that moment we had some Network issue, and claims has to be posted before liquidation can be done. I called the head office to inform them the issue on ground, as they work to rectify it, I took the client to our lounge room, I bought him ice cream and cake, we ate together and I cracked some jokes, we laughed together as we wait for the Network issue to be resolved,

Customers satisfaction is actually difficult when it comes to large number, I always have a note book, to write down appointment and discussions with customers, so it will be easy for me to satisfy everyone according to what we have discussed earlier. When I have much work to do per hour, I have to inform them on how each issue will be treated accordingly, as their patiently wait.

The last time I apologized to someone was few hours ago, I mistakenly stepped on someone's foot in a public transport, I just have to apologize immediately.
