Answer:

The need for organisations (which may be governmental or non-governmental) to improve the condition of living of people and protect their environment whilst they pursue increased profitability has been termed

The Triple Bottomline.

It is also referred to by economists as the 3P - People, Planet and Profit.

It speaks to the fact that other than the usual making financial success the sole metric of measurement by which organisations are evaluated, their impact on people and the environment should be considered as well.

In simple terms, a firm should be termed more successful than others if it's activities besides being profitable also impacts positively on people and protects if not improves the environment.

Cheers!

Fittoniya [83]

Given Information:

Site 1: x1 = 360 , y1 = 180

Site 2: x2 = 420 , y2 = 450

Site 3: x3 = 250 , y3 = 400

Solution:

Xa = 200, Ya = 200, Wa = 75

Xb = 100, Yb = 500, Wb = 105

Xc = 250, Yc = 600, Wc = 135

Xd = 500, Yd = 300, Wd = 60

If centre of gravity is (x,y)

then x = (200*75+100*105+250*135+500*60)/(75+105+135+60)

         x = 238

then y = (200*75+500*105+600*135+300*60)/(75+105+135+60)

         y = 444

Using centre-of-gravity method, location of distribution centre = (238,444)

Using rectilinear distance,

Load distance score of Site 1: 75*(abs(360-200)+abs(180-200))+105*(abs(360-100)+abs(180-500))+135*(abs(360-250)+abs(180-600))+60*(abs(360-500)+abs(180-300)) = 161550

Load distance score of Site 2: 75*(abs(420-200)+abs(450-200))+105*(abs(420-100)+abs(450-500))+135*(abs(420-250)+abs(450-600))+60*(abs(420-500)+abs(450-300)) = 131100

Load distance score of Site 3: 75*(abs(250-200)+abs(400-200))+105*(abs(250-100)+abs(400-500))+135*(abs(250-250)+abs(400-600))+60*(abs(250-500)+abs(400-300)) = 93000

Site 3 tends to be optimal as it offers a lower distance ranking.

Assume France and Mali can both produce grain and dates, and that the only limited resource is the farming labor force, meaning
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

In France:

Farmer can produce = 10 metric tons of grain or 5 metric tons of dates in a season

In Mali:

Farmer can produce = 10 metric tons of grain or 25 metric tons of dates.

(1) Mali has the absolute advantage in producing dates because Mali produces more metric tons of dates than France from the same level resources.

(2) No country has an absolute advantage in producing grain because same amount of grain were produced by both the countries with the same level of resources.

(3) Opportunity cost of dates in France = \frac{10}{5}

                                                                 = 2 grain

Opportunity cost of dates in Mali = \frac{10}{25}

                                                       = 0.4 grain  

Therefore, Mali's opportunity cost of producing dates is lower than France, so Mali has a comparative advantage in producing dates.

(4) Opportunity cost of grain in France =  \frac{5}{10}

                                                                = 0.5 dates

Opportunity cost of grain in Mali = \frac{25}{10}

                                                      = 2.5 dates

Therefore, France's opportunity cost of producing grains is lower than Mali, so France has a comparative advantage in producing grains.

A perfectly competitive firm will minimize its losses by shutting down when:
Archy [21]

Answer:

A perfectly competitive firm will minimize its losses by shutting down when: P < TFC at the profit-maximizing level of output. P < MC at the profit-maximizing level of output.

Explanation:

A firm will choose to implement a production shutdown when the revenue received from the sale of the goods or services produced cannot cover the variable costs of production. In this situation, a firm will lose more money when it produces goods than if it does not produce goods at all. Producing a lower output would only add to the financial losses, so a complete shutdown is required. If a firm decreased production it would still acquire variable costs not covered by revenue as well as fixed costs (costs inevitably incurred). By stopping production the firm only loses the fixed costs.

Offering to pay the passenger in front of you to keep her from reclining her airplane seat is an example of a Pigovian solution
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

a Coasian solution to an externality situation.

Explanation:

Basically. a Coasian solution to an externality situation occurs when the economic activities of one party results in a damage or cost to another party or their property. In this situation, the Coase Theorem which recommends two possible settlements may be applied. The first settlement is for the party causing the damage or imposing the cost to choose to give financial compensation to the affected party so that he can continue to impose the cost or cause the damage. The second settlement is for the affected party to pay the party causing the damage or imposing the cost so that he can stop causing the damage or imposing the cost.

From the question, the affected person chose the second possible settlement by offering to pay the passenger in front of him to keep her from reclining her airplane seat. It is therefore an example of a Coasian solution to an externality situation.
