The concept of creating safer and more efficient equipment is called ergonomics

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Ergonomics is the process of designing or arranging workplaces, products and systems therefore they fit the people who use them. Ergonomics also can roughly be defined as the study of people in their working environment

Ergonomics is making a job to fit the worker so the work is safer and more efficient. By implement ergonomic solutions we can make employees more comfortable and increase productivity. Ergonomics is important because if it is not applied when you’re doing a job and your body is stressed, your musculoskeletal system is affected and its will harm your body.

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) itself are conditions that affect your body’s muscles, joints, tendons.

The advantages of ergonomics are: Increased savings (Fewer injuries, More productive and sustainable employees, Fewer workers’ compensation claims), Fewer employees experiencing pain (reduce the risk factors that lead to discomfort), Increased productivity (reduce the primary risk factors for MSDs), Increased morale (can make employees feel valued) and Reduced absenteeism (healthy and pain-free workers )

Workplace ergonomics is the science of designing the workplace, and keeping in mind about the capabilities and limitations of the worker.

You are 30 years old today and are considering studying for an MBA. You just received your annual salary of $50,000 and expect i

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Yes, you should take the MBA because the NPV of taking the MBA is positive.

Explanation:

the total economic costs of taking the MBA program include the lost wages + the costs of taking the MBA and any interest you could have earned by investing it on something else = ($50,000 x 1.03) + ($50,000 x 1.03²) + (2 x $30,000 x 1.08) = $51,500 + $53,045 + $64,800 = $169,345

the present value of your total economic costs:

$51,500/1.08 + $53,045/1.08² + $32,400/1.08 + $32,400/1.08² = $47,685.19 + $45,477.54 + $30,000 + $27,777.78 = $150,940.51

if you continued to work, your salary at year 3 would be $54,636.35 and it would continue to increase by 3% every year. The salary that you can earn with an MBA is $80,000 and it will grow by 4% per year. I used an excel spreadsheet to calculate future salaries and the differential amount between them. Then I calculated the PV at the beginning of year 3 of the differential income.

The PV of the differential income today = $560,281.31 /1.08³ = $444,769.38

the NPV of taking an MBA = $444,769.38 - $150,940.51 = $293,828.87

Your company has just taken out a 1-year installment loan for $82,500 at a nominal rate of 12.0% but with equal end-of-month pay

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

89.63% of 2nd month payment will go towards the payment of principal.

Explanation:

Loan Payament per month = r ( PV ) / 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n

r = rate per period = 12% per year = 1% per month

n = number months = 12 months

PV = present value of all payments = $82,500

P = payment per month = ?

P = 1% ( $82,500 ) / 1 - ( 1 + 1% )^-12

P = $7,330 per month

Month Payments Principal Interest Balance

1 -7330 -6505 -825 75995

2 -7330 -6570 -760 69,425

Percentage of Principal Payment = Principal payment / totla monthly payment = $6,570 / $7,330 = 0.8963 = 89.63%

Juliette [100K]

Answer: $13000

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that Paula receives a nonliquidating distribution from Pell Corporation. Paula’s basis for her Pell stock is $10,000 and in exchange for her stock, Paula receives real estate with an $8,000 basis and a $15,000 fair market value that is subject to a $2,000 mortgage.

The amount of Paula’s basis in the real estate she received will be the net fair market value of the real Estate. It should be noted that this is the difference between the market value and the mortgage amount. This will be:

= $15,000 - $2,000

= $13,000
