Answer:

Uncertainty Avoidance

Explanation:

The term uncertainty avoidance was coined by a man named, Geert Hofstede to explain the extent to which people are willing to remain in a given situation so as to <em>avoid uncomfortable circumstances</em><em>.</em> It reflects the extent to which people are unwilling to take risks. A low uncertainty avoidance index simply means that the people who have just been studied are willing to accommodate ambiguity and take risks. A high uncertainty avoidance on the other hand means that the people are more comfortable in their given positions and are unwilling to take risks.  

So, in the employee situation, the degree to which employees are threatened by ambiguity is known as uncertainty avoidance.

Jacoby Company received an offer from an exporter for 26,200 units of product at $18 per unit. The acceptance of the offer will
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The change in revenue (differential revenue from the acceptance of the offer) will be $ 471600

Explanation:

The revenue represents the total sales of the product, regardless of the costs, then If the company produced initially Q units the initial revenue will be

Initial Revenue=total sales= P₁*Q₁

- Since the offer does not alter the domestic sales prices P₁ , the price P₁ remains constant.

- Since the sales does not affect normal production , the quantity sold to the domestic market Q₁ is also not affected ( i don't need to resign units to the domestic market to sell to the exporter)

then

New revenue= Revenue from the exporter + Revenue from the domestic market = Revenue from the exporter + Initial revenue

where Revenue from the exporter=P₂*Q₂ , P₂= price sold to the exporter and Q₂= units sold to the exporter

therefore the change in revenue will be

Change in Revenue= New revenue - Initial Revenue =   Revenue from the exporter

Change in Revenue=P₂*Q₂=$18 /unit* 26200 unit = $ 471600

Note:

The profit represents the revenue, taking into account the costs. Then the change the initial profit will be

initial profit =  P₁*Q₁ - (CF+CV*Q₁)

the New profit

New profit = P₂*Q₂+ P₁*Q₁ - [CF+CV*(Q₂+Q₁)]

and the change in profit

change in profit= New profit - initial profit =   P₂*Q₂+ P₁*Q₁ - [CF+CV*(Q₂+Q₁)] -[P₁*Q₁ - (CF+CV*Q₁)]= P₂*Q₂ - CV*Q₂ = (P₂- CV)*Q₂ = ($18 /unit-  $12 /unit)* 26200 unit = $ 156000

Over the past year, productivity grew 2%, capital grew 1%, and labor grew 1%. If the elasticities of output with respect to capi
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The output growth rate is 3%.

Explanation:

Use the growth accounting equation as follow

ΔA% = ΔY% - αΔK% - βΔL%

Where

∆A = change in productivity = 2%

∆K = growth in capital =

∆L = growth in labor =

α = elasticity of capital = 0.2

β = elasticity of labor = 0.8

∆Y = change in output = ?

Placing values in the formula

2% = ΔY% - ( 0.2 x 1% ) – ( 0.8 x 1% )

2% = ΔY% - 1%

ΔY% = 2% + 1%

ΔY% = 3%

Hence, the output growth rate is 3%.
