As part of the process, the HR department's first step should be to identify that the sales representatives need technical training. It was said in the statement above that most of the new workers have a poor performance although they have a vast experience in sales. Most probably, it would be because they are unfamiliar with the products of the said company and they would lack the technical knowledge needed to do their job well. As an HR staff, you should be able to see that these employees would need some kind of training and education about the products of the company.
Answer: The correct answer is "C. produce because revenue of $1 comma 000 is greater than fixed costs.".
Explanation: The firm should produce because the revenue of 1000 is enough to cover the fixed costs and part of the variables (1000 - 800 - 600 = (-400)) so that the loss is less than if it stopped producing despite the avoidable costs (800 - 350 = 450) since if it stopped producing it would have a loss of $ 450 and producing it would have a loss of $ 400.
Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>1. The slope is negative</u>
- <u>2. The demand decreases when the prices increase.</u>
Explanation:
<em>Describe the slope of the demand curve?</em>
<em>The slope of the demand curve</em> is negative.
The demand curve is graphed on a coordinate plane with the price in the horizontal axis (typically the x-axis) and the demand on the vertical axis (y-axis).
Thus, the slope will be the rate of change of the demand over the change on the price.
Mathematically:

Since, as you move from left to right, on the x-axis, the prices increase, and the demand (on the y-axis) lowers, the change in demand is negative and the change in the prices is positive, resulting in a negative slope.
This is seen graphycally because the demand curve is decreasing (downward-sloping).
<em>How does the slope reflect the law of demand?</em>
The slope reflects perfectly <em>the law of demand</em> because the law of demand states that, since the resources are scarce, when the prices incrases the quantities demanded decrease.
I believe the answer is: A. Cars typically lose the most value in the first year after purchase
As the miles usage in cars increase, the quality of the machine tend to deteriorate, which would lead to the decrease in the cars' value. On top of that, the new model that given by car companies tend to possess better technology/design. On average, cars tend to lose 15 - 25 % in value during the first year.
