Answer:

x1 = 4891.294

Explanation:

given data

mean μ =  $5,793

standard deviation  σ =  $439

solution

we know here that

P(x < x1 ) = 0.02     .................1

so

P(\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma } < \frac{x1-\mu }{\sigma }) = 0.02

so

P(z < \frac{x1-\mu }{\sigma }) = 0.02

\frac{x1-\mu }{\sigma }  = invNorm(0.02)

so

x1 = μ + σ × invNorm(0.02)    .....................2

we use here table for invNorm(0.02) and put value in eq 2

x1 = 5793 + 439 × (-2.054 )

x1 = 4891.294

Answer:

The impacts of the fur trade on society in terms of economics, culture, technology, nature, and the government changed over the time.

Rockefeller never act unethically by the standards of his day or today´s.

There is nocontradiction between his personal and business ethics.

Explanation:

The fur trade was a vast commercial enterprise, which was at its peak for nearly 250 years, from the early 17th to the mid-19th centuries, sustained to satisfy the demand in an intensely competitive trade which opened exploration and settlement, financing missionary work, established social, economic and colonial relationships between Europeans and Indigenous people.

Changing cultural in the fashion industry, has had a drastic evolution over the years, when a woman in the first half of the twentieth century , might be very proud to wear a fox stole with its head and feet intact but today, it would consider  that an ethical faux pas.

Ethics has become a major consideration for young people in their selection of work and career, who demand enshrined values in their business  model, a difference, contributing with their core values, conscience, and personality not just profit.By the standards of his day Rockefeller, a faithful, balanced and devout Christian, was not being unethical as he always followed his-time regulations and laws, although nowadays they are more severe.  He compensated all the things he did, if wrong, with his contributions to help people cope with any damage done. There is no contradiction behe did as he had been taught when he was younger that he should separate business from pleasure.

Glascro Company manufactures skis. The management accountant wants to calculate the fixed and variable costs associated with the
Ber [7]

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

We know that

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost

From the data given, we can calculate the variable cost using the high-low technique.

Variable cost per unit

=\frac{Total cost at highest level-Total cost at lowest level }{Highest level - Lowest level} \\\\=\frac{16,000-10,000}{1,000-600 } \\

=$15

Lease cost = FC + $15(Machine hours)

Lease cost -$15(Machine hours) = FC

Case,

i) 800 machine hours,

FC = Lease cost - $15(Machine hours)

     = $16,000 -$15(1000) = $1,000
