Answer:

The key economic idea being exemplified is c) People are rational

Explanation:

The economists’ assumption is that firms and consumers utilize all available information to attain their goals and weigh all costs and benefits of each action taken. Moreover, firms and consumers only choose an action if the benefits exceeds the costs.  Therefore, the action of manufacturing firms to move their operations from overseas back to the US due to the increased preference for US manufactured goods exemplifies that consumers and firms rely on all available information when pursuing their goals.

Define the concept management from functional perspective and clearly explain each of its
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Management refers to the ability or art of setting objectives, organizing, motivating the people resources, devising systems of measurement, and building human capacity towards the attainment of all organization objectives.

Explanation:

1. Defining Objectives: This flows down from the Founder and Chief Vision Officer. The objectives of an organization is the purpose for which an organization was set up. An example could be to give people living with a disability the opportunity to live inclusively, attaining their highest selves.

2. Organizing: When objectives are taken and put in form of goals, these goals are devolved through to management in the form of achievable tasks who then delegate them to staff. The process of ensuring that each staff know their tasks, who they are accountable to, and work together harmoniously is called Organising.

3. Motivating team: It is not enough to have human resources. It is critical that they be willing to work together, harmoniously and happily. This way, the company enjoys the highest performance possible.

4. Defining Performance Indicators

What is not measured can not be managed. Performance Indicators are systems of measurement that enable the organization to keep track of whether or not the goals are being met and in what measure they are.

5. Building Capacity

Organizations that build leaders the fastest are the ones that win. Building human capacity is the equivalent of upgrading machinery or opting for higher manufacturing technology in the industrial age. People are able to solve problems to the extend that they know how to. The more they know, the better and faster they are at solving such problems. Hence, increasing organizational competency and effectiveness.

4vir4ik [10]

Answer: Option (d)

Explanation:

Under this case the write off will be as follow:

                                                                      Debit         Credit

Allowance for doubtful accounts                25,200  

Accounts receivables                                                     25,200

Here, in this case the Allowance for the doubtful accounts and Accounts receivables are further decreased as the outcome of the transaction made. Thus, there will be no further effect on working capital. Therefore the $30,000 that is bad debt would then be stated as the credit to allowance account. This will then decrease the working capital by $30,000.
