Answer:

(A) Current period productivity= 4 units/hr

Previous period productivity= 3.833units/hr

(B) increase in productivity by 4.356 percent

Explanation:

A manager checkedthe rate of production and found out that a worker produced 160 units while working for 40 hours

In the previous week the same worker produced 138 units while working for 36 hours

(A) The current period productivity can be calculated as follows

= 160 units/40 hours

= 4 units/hr

The previous period productivity can be calculated as follows

= 138 units / 36 hours

= 3.833 units/hr

(B) The productivity growth can be calculated as follows

= current period productivity - previous period productivity / previous period productivity

= 4-3.833/3.833

= 0.167/3.833

= 0.04356 × 100

= 4.356 percent

Hence there was an increase in workers productivity by 4.356 percent

Active trading in markets and competition among securities analysts helps ensure that: I. Security prices approach informational
Anika [276]

Answer:

The answer is: All the options are correct (I, II and III)

Explanation:

The larger the number of individuals (e.g. securities analysts, investors) who are informed about the price system of securities, the prices of securities will approach informational efficiency.

When the system approaches informational efficiency, you can determine which securities are riskier than others. Therefore you can price riskier securities so that they offer higher expected returns.

The other positive effect of informational efficacy is that investors can determine which securities are undervalued or overvalued.

sweet [91]

Answer:

The planned purchases are given as  $34,500 while the value of OTB is $28,900

Explanation:

The Planned purchases is given as

Planned Sales + Planned Markdowns + Planned End of Month Inventory - Planned Beginning of Month Inventory = Planned Purchases

So here the planned sales are 25000

The planned Reductions are 1500

The End of Month inventory is 88000

The Beginning of Month Inventory is 80000 So the value is given as

25000+1500+88000-80000= Planned Purchases

Planned Purchases =34500

The OTB is given as

OTB=Planned Purchases-Commitment

OTB=34500-5600

OTB=28900
