Answer: 4. unrealistic performance goals.

Explanation:

Unipeg Corporation has a standardized performance target across the globe which is high enough on its own without having to account for environmental constraints.

This is very unrealistic because different environments have different constraints that can either increase or decrease sales.

Say for instance Unipeg is engaged in the sale of trendy women clothing including mini skirts, sleeveless tops, crop tops etc but has a presence in Iran or Saudi Arabia. The sales there cannot be expected to match up to sales in Japan or Brazil for instance and to expect such is unrealistic.

Penalizing the Employees for these shortfalls has led to them falsifying data and that is down to the unrealistic nature of Unipeg's designs.

If a portfolio had a return of 8%, the risk-free asset return was 3%, and the standard deviation of the portfolio's excess retur
atroni [7]

Answer: 25%

Explanation:

The Sharpe Ratio will be calculated by using the formula:

= (​Rp​−Rf)/σp

​​where,

Rp ​= return of portfolio = 0.08

Rf​ = risk-free rate = 0.03

σp​ = standard deviation of portfolio’s excess return​ = 0.20

Therefore, Sharpe Ratio will be:

= (​Rp​−Rf)/σp

= (0.08 - 0.03)/0.20

= 0.05/0.20

= 0.25 or 25%

The Sharpe ratio is 25%.

Price elasticity for a good depends on the share of a consumer's budget spent on a good. Other things being equal, which of the
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Monthly Cell Phone Bill

Explanation:

Other things being equal, the higher the price of a good relative to a consumer's income, the greater the price elasticity of demand. Hence, the price elasticity of demand for low-priced items, such as thumbtacks and fish food, tends to be lower than the price elasticity of demand for relatively expensive items, such as monthly cell phone bill, that represent a more significant fraction of a consumer's annual income.

Be sure to consider not just the price, however, but also the overall portion of a consumer's annual income spent on an item. For example, one latte costs only $3.00, but for daily coffee drinkers the annual expense could be around $1,000. The elasticity of demand for lattes is therefore likely to be higher than that for other low-priced items (such as thumbtacks) that may need to be purchased only a few times annually.

azamat

Question Completion:

Assume that the price per ton of oranges in the international market is $810 and equilibrium is established at the price of $900 for 120 tons.

Answer:

If Bangladesh is open to international trade in oranges without any restrictions, it will ____import____ tons of oranges. Suppose the Bangladeshi government wants to reduce imports to exactly 120 tons of oranges to help domestic producers. A tariff of ____$90____ per ton will achieve this.  A tariff set at this level would raise $___10,800______ in revenue for the Bangladeshi government.

Explanation:

A tariff of $90 per ton will raise the price of a ton of oranges to $900 ($810 per ton as indicated on the question).  When the price is raised to $900 in the domestic market, the quantity demanded will equalize with the quantity supplied at 120 tons.
