Answer:

e. All of the other choices

Explanation:

Product liability is the responsibility that a company bears for injury caused by its products as a result of a defect.

In this instance Musclematic, has known for the past year that this problem existed, but the company took no steps to warn people who owned or used these machines of the problem.

So for any injury users have they will be liable.

If Amanda files a lawsuit against Musclematic they will have to consider:

- How this litigation will affect its goodwill

- Whether or not a settlement with Amanda is a viable option

- Whether this suit will adversely affect other business relationships

- The costs associated with litigating this claim

This is because they will most likely lose the case.

Which dimension of empowerment would most likely be experienced by people who feel they have some active control over the enviro
Sindrei [870]

Dimension of employee empowerment experienced by people who feel they have some active control over the environment is Feeling of impact.

The process of giving employees in an organization the power, authority, responsibility, resources, and freedom to make decisions and solve work-related problems is known as empowerment. They are given sufficient authority and resources to take such initiatives and decisions.

Employee empowerment encourages them to reach their full potential. On the other hand, empowerment entails relinquishing control over employees and allowing each employee to make decisions, set goals, achieve results, and receive rewards. It entails preparing a person to manage on his or her own. It is a process that assists the right people at the right levels in making the right decision for the right reasons.

Feeling of impact - Empowered employees see themselves as active participants in the organization and believe they have influence over key strategic, administrative, and operational decisions.

zvonat [6]

Answer: Increase

Explanation:

According to the Law of Supply and Demand, If the demand for the good is higher than the supply, the price will be higher to reflect the relative scarcity and if the demand is lower than supply, the price will be lower to reflect the relative excess.

In this case the quantity demanded is higher than the quantity supplied so the price will have to increase to reflect the relative scarcity of the good.

In the base year in a small island macroeconomy, nominal GDP was $400m. In a later year when the general level of all prices was
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Both options C and D are correct.

Explanation:

Inflation refers to an increase in the general price level of goods and services overtime. Since it is conveyed in the question that the general price level in a later year became twice as high, inflation definitely occurred. Hence, option D is correct.

Nominal GDP is the value of the total output at current market prices. Real GDP adjusts that value for inflation. As prices double, nominal GDP ought to increase from $400m to $800m. However, it actually rose to $1000m. This additional increase of $200m shows that the real GDP has risen. However, the increase in real GDP is less than 100%. This implies option C is also correct.
