Answer:

The total surplus from Andrew's sale to Nick is $35.

Explanation:

The total surplus is the sum of producer surplus and consumer surplus.

The consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay for a product and the price he/she actually has to pay.

While producer surplus is the difference between the minimum price a producer is willing to accept for a product and the price he/she actually gets.

Consumer surplus for Nick

= $80 - $60

= $20

Producer surplus for Andrew

= $60 - $45

= $15

Total surplus from generated from Andrew's sale to Nick

= $20 + $15

= $35

Independent surveys suggest that companies cannot easily quantify the effects of diversity. How would you suggest that Alliant m
nata0808 [166]

How would you suggest that Alliant measure the effects of a diverse workforce?

Different background and more diversity can contribute for new strategies and innovation for the company. The effects of diversity can be directly quantified after hiring more diverse people into a determined sector and by comparing the profits before and after hiring. In other words, the UX of a product made by a company mostly with individuals from a social group A cannot easily design a product which a group B can identify themselves.

For example, the design of a woman intimate personal care products made exclusively by man might originate products which aren't that good as designed products made by a diverse group man and woman.

If a company ignored workforce diversity, how might it be affected?

The company can stuck into a non-creative solution and/or stays in sector without innovation. A company without innovation might be fragile to the competition companies.

1) 10,000 miles

Insurance= 1,100

Garage= 600

Tax= 280

Variable costs= 0.14*10,000= 1,400

Total= $3,380

Cost per mile= 3380/10000= $0.338

2) The only relevant cost is the variable operating cost per mile. The other costs will exist whether she uses the car or not.
