Answer:

Monopoly

A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopolistic competition has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.

Critically analyze the difference and points of convergence between floor inspection and functional inspection
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Please refer to the below;

Explanation:

Difference between Floor inspection and Functional inspection.

• Floor inspection is usually conducted in a production environment. It involves checking of materials while processing in the machine by inspectors. Rather than checking the materials in the machine at the beginning of production, floor inspection checks the materials while in process inorder to ensure that the defected ones are quickly detected and expunged. It also ensure that the equipments used in processing are properly functioning.

• Functional inspection is an inspection that checks the overall function of a product rather than what makes up the component parts. For instance the load capacity and speed of a vehicle can be checked for optimal performance whereas individual parts that make up the vehicle are not checked, yet bring out satisfactory performance when combined together. This form of inspection is concerned with verification of final output and does not provide details about different sections instead provides a wider understanding of comfort that emanate from inspecting same item.

Points of Convergence between Floor inspection and Functional inspection.

• The key objective of both floor and functional inspection is quality output having reviewed and examined their expectations.

• Both floor and functional inspection work to prevent defective product from flowing down the successive operations and avoid loss to the company

• Both floor and functional inspection aim at meeting customers requirements, wants and needs.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

17%

Explanation:

If a company issued a short-term note payable to a bank with a stated 12 percent rate of interest and in addition the bank charged a .5% loan origination fee and remitted the balance to the company. The effective interest rate paid by the company in this transaction would be 17%

The effective annual interest rate is <u>the interest rate that is actually earned or paid on an investment, loan</u> or other financial product.

Hence, since the company is both paying the initial 5% and the later 12%, effectively the company is paying 17% on the note payable.

Why might a person assume the Mr. White could be doing well financially
defon

\huge\color{purple}{\mathbb{ANSWER:}}

Mr. White was the third and final owner of the talisman in W. W. Jacobs' short story "The Monkey's Paw." He plucked it from the fireplace when the previous owner, Sergeant Major Morris, tossed it there to burn and end the chain of misfortune that came with it. He is motivated mostly by curiosity, since he seems happy with his life and is financially secure.

Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. "I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said slowly. "It seems to me I've got all I want."

Mila [183]

Answer:

the average unit cost:  $7.917

Explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

<em>In its first month of operations, McLanie Company made three purchases of merchandise in the following sequence: (1) 300 units at $6, (2) 400 units at $8, and (3) 500 units at $9. Assuming there are 200 units on hand at the end of the period. Calculate average unit cost. (Round answers to 3 decimal places, e.g. 5.125.)</em>

My answer:

Given:

  • 1) 300 units at $6, (2) 400 units at $8, and (3) 500 units at $9.

<=> Total units = 300 + 400 + 500 = 1200 units

<=> Total cost: 300*$6 + 400*$8 + 500*$9

= $1,800 + $3,200 + $4,500

= $9500

  • As we know that, the average unit cost:

= Total cost / total units

=$9,500 ÷ 1,200 = $7.917

Hope it will find you well.
