Until now, only injectable vaccines against influenza have been available. Parents are reluctant to subject children to the pain

of injections, but adults, who are at risk of serious complications from influenza, are commonly vaccinated. A new influenza vaccine, administered painlessly in a nasal spray, is effective for children. However, since children seldom develop serious complications from influenza, no significant public health benefit would result from widespread vaccination of children using the nasal spray. Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?A. Any person who has received the injectable vaccine can safely receive the nasal-spray vaccine as Well B. The new vaccine uses the same mechanism to ward off influenza as jnjectable vaccines do. C. The injectable vaccine is affordable for all adults. D. Adults do not contract influenza primarily from children who have influenza. E. The nasal spray vaccine is not effective when administered to adults.

Answer:

D) Adults do not contract influenza primarily from children who have influenza.

Explanation:

The conclusion from this argument is that there is no health benefit for the nasal spray vaccine since it was designed to be administered to children, but children rarely get influenza.

The only assumption that strengthens this conclusion is that children do not pass influenza to adults.

  • If this is true, plus the fact that children rarely get influenza, then why would anyone need an influenza vaccine for children.
  • If this assumption was false and children passed influenza to adults, then the conclusion would be wrong because a vaccine would be necessary to prevent children from passing influenza.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

a. $6,763.40

Explanation:

The computation of the selling price is shown below:

But before that the predetermined overhead rate is

For machining

= ($102000 ÷ 17,000) + $1.70

= $7.7 per machine hour

For fabrication

= ($61200 ÷ 6000) + $4.10

= $14.30 per labour hour

Now the selling price is

Direct material ($720 + $380) $1,100

Direct labor ($900 + $1,500) $2,400

Machining department overhead (7.7 × 80) $616

Fabrication department overhead (50 × 14.3) $715

Total manufacturing cost $4,831

Markup 40% $1,932.40

Selling price $6,763.40

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

There are similarities in the way businesses are run, but the management and influencing capacity on both are completely different.

Though during the founding days both the organizations, IKEA and Walmart operated under direct influence of the founders.

Also,  power and responsibility is more shared, though there would be some adaptation and conflict changes that is expected, but it is differently structured than Walmart and would not suffer much.

Explanation:

Solution:

Now,

There are similarities in the way businesses are run, but the management and influencing capacity on both are completely different.

Though during the founding days both the organizations, IKEA and Walmart operated under direct influence of the founders.

Where as Walmart still had a lot of key decisions directly made through the founders,

  • Key global expansion
  • Key local management

Everything was micro managed from the HQ through Sam.

But after the few years of success, the model of IKEA remained same but they went to several countries and became more regional.

Global decisions were made from The HQ under the direct supervision of Ingvar  But all the key regional war was given to a CEO, who had all the decisions to make.

This way there was a lot of power sharing and responsibility distributed. In case of any problem, HQ has interruptions to make it correct.

This implies power and responsibility is more shared, though there would be some issues and adaptation changes that is expected, but it is differently structured than Walmart and would not suffer that much.

Therefore, No the effect would not be similar to that of Walmart leadership transition.

Equity will also be overstated because bad debts is an expense that is sent to the Income statement. If this expense is not deducted, the net income will be larger than it should be and when added to Equity it will overstate it.
