Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Return on the stock = (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (capital gain ÷ investment )

= (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (Final price of the stock - initial price of the stock) ÷ Investment

10 = (1 ÷ 20) × 100 + ((final price - 20) ÷ 20) × 100

10 = 5 + 5 × ( final price - 20)

Final price = 21

Therefore, the stock price should increase by [(21 - 20) ÷ 20] × 100

                                                                            = 5%

If W. Edwards Deming was your management consultant, he would emphasize
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Letter A. <u>Quality through constant innovation and quality assurance training.</u>

Explanation:

Alternative A is correct, as W. Edwards Deming was a pioneer scholar in the application of organizational quality management.

He was responsible for creating the 14 points, which are principles for management that will help the organization to achieve total quality. He was also responsible for popularizing the PDCA Cycle (PLAN, DO, CHECK, ACT), which is a strategic tool widely used worldwide to ensure continuous improvement and the quality of processes and products.

  • PLAN:  define objectives, methods and resources.
  • DO: Perform, educate and train.
  • CHECK: Measure and evaluate
  • ACT:  act correctly.

Continuous improvement can be achieved through the correct and targeted use of the PDCA cycle towards organizational objectives. For Deming, without continuous improvement, there is no survival of the organization in the market, so he argues that continuous improvement must be implemented in all phases of the project, to achieve the benefits of continuous improvement of processes, increased productivity and reduced costs.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

          \large\boxed{\large\boxed{\$ 13,200}}

Explanation:

This is an algebra question about fractions.

You need to find 3/10 of the income, and the income is $44,000.

You must muliply the fraction 3/10 by the $44,000 income.

To multily one fraction by a whole number you convert the whole number to a fraction with denominator 1. Then multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator. This is how:

                     \dfrac{3}{10}\times \dfrac{\$ 44,000}{1}=\dfrac{3\times \$ 44,000}{10}=\\\\\\=\dfrac{\$ 132,000}{10}=\$ 13,200

John Jones owns and manages a café in Collegetown whose annual revenue is $5,000. Annual expenses are as follows:
OleMash [197]

Answer:

a.) $750

b.) Yes, the café is making an economic profit of $25 per year.

Yes, he should stay in the café business.

c.) No, the café is making an economic loss of $75 per year

No, he should not stay in the café business.

d.)$3,250

e.) $250

Explanation:

a) John's accounting profit is his revenue minus his explicit costs:$5,000 - $4,250 = $750

b) In this case, John's opportunity cost of running the café is $725 per year ($1,000 − $275 = $725). Thus, the café is making an economic profit of $25 per year ($5,000 − $4,250 − $725 = $25). Since the café is earning an economic profit, John should stay in the café business.

c) In this case, John's opportunity cost of running the cafe is $825 per year ($1,100 − $275 = $825). Thus, the cafe is earning an economic loss of $75 per year ($5,000 − $4,250 − $825 = −$75). Since the café is earning an economic loss, John should not stay in the café business.

d) John's accounting profit equals his revenue minus his explicit costs. If he doesn't need a loan, then his explicit costs equal $3,250. So, his accounting profit equals $1,750 (= $5,000 − $3,250).

e) To earn a normal profit, the café would have to cover all its implicit and explicit costs. The opportunity cost of John's time is $1,000 per year while the café's accounting profit is only $750 per year. Thus, the café would have to earn additional revenues of $250 per year in order for John to make a normal profit.
