Answer:

The answer is D. Open communication is key in building lasting relationships whether in business or in personal relationships.

Explanation:

For two companies to maintain a strategic relationship, there must be open communication.  Whitney displayed correct understanding of this ingredient for strategic relationships.

That was why she was open enough to work out a more amicable relationship with Rodney.  She discussed her sales goals and new ideas for the business.  On Rodney's part, he showed no interest.  He was not ready to discuss his own sales goals.

Rodney lost a golden opportunity offered by Whitney by opening up communication.  He should have embraced the chance to bring up his concerns and discuss his goals openly, unless he is hiding something.  He could be deliberately overcharging on price.  These comments remain mere guesses as Rodney failed to open up.

Novosadov [1.4K]
The consumer surplus associated with the consumption of furniture increases. Wood is an input in the production of furniture therefore it constitutes the cost of production, the decrease in the price of wood would therefore mean a decrease in the production cost. A decrease in the cost of production in turn causes a decrease in the buying price of furniture and therefore, consumer surplus increases.

Lake Charles Seafood makes 550 wooden packing boxes for fresh seafood per​ day, working in two​ 10-hour shifts. Due to increased
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a. Before the change in work rules, the company's productivity per day

= 550 packing boxes / 20 hours = 27.5 packing boxes per hour

b. Based on the changes made, the percent increase in productivity

productivity after the change = 700 packing boxes / 24 hours = 29.17 packing boxes per hour

productivity change = (29.17 - 27.5) / 27.5 = 6.07%

c. If production is increased to boxes per day (with the three 8-hour shifts), the new productivity equals

700 packing boxes per day (prior productivity of 550 packing boxes per day, which represents a 27.27% increase)

productivity = output / unit of time
