Answer: Both Arianna and Alexander

Explanation: This is a general partnership. In a general partnership, all partners are personally liable for all business debts. They do not need to have any agreement to be partners or register their partnership formally to enter into a general partnership. The fact that they share an office, have a joint sign and an account is sufficient to establish this form of partnership.

Also, in a general partnership, each partner is held severally liable, that is if  one of them is liable to pay a business debt and cannot afford to pay, the other partner has to.

salantis [7]

Answer:

Johnson Stores

Staffing Budget for Holidays:

a. The amount to budget for additional sales clerks for the holiday season is:

= $24,192.

b. The additional profit generated if a staff is added for the increased sale is:

= $1,209.60.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Number of sales clerk required for each $12,000 in daily sales = 1

Average sales increase = $96,000

Number of sales clerk required for the $96,000 sales increase = 8 ($96,000/$12,000)

Number of shopping days from Black Friday to Christmas Eve = 27

Sales clerk works a shift per day = 8 hours

Wages per hour = $14

Total hours to be worked by the additional sales clerk = 8 * 27 * 8 = 1,728

Total wages = 1,728 * $14 = $24,192

Average gross profit on sales = 40%

Total gross profit on sales = $24,192 * 40% = $9,676.80

Additional gross profit generated by adding a staff = $1,209.60 ($9,676.80/8)

The demand for plumbers is the same in country A and country B, but the plumbers in country A earn less than the plumbers in cou
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:The supply of plumbers in country A is greater than the supply of plumbers in country B.

Explanation:

The state of demand and supply of labour has a great effect on wages of workers. If the supply of plumbers is grater than the number s of households demanding plumbering services the wages for the plumbers will fall because more plumbers are available for the few works available and this is the situation why plumbers in country A earn less than B though the demand in both countries are the same but they do not vary in the same proportion with their demands.

The supply of plumbers in B is not greater than A and this why B earn more. Productivity refers to measuring the level of outputs in relation to the inputs such labour, capital in production and this does not have impact on wages compare to demand and supply of labour but it's impact is on production.
