Which of the following best describes the group development pattern known as punctuated equilibrium?

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The answer is B: At the midpoint of the project, members realize that their behavior pattern must change in order to complete the project on time.

Explanation:

Punctuated equilibrium is a concept in both biology and business where long periods of relative stability are often followed by growth spurts.

The punctuated-equilibrium model argues that groups usually move forward during bursts of change after going for long periods without change.

In the answer B, this concept is captured as group members of a project realise somewhere at the midpoint, that their behavior pattern must change in order to complete the project on time.

This shows that a period of relative stability was observed and then a short period of growth will be observed during the project lifecycle. This agrees with the development pattern known as punctuated equilibrium.

At the end of Year 2, retained earnings for the Baker Company was $3,350. Revenue earned by the company in Year 2 was $3,600, ex

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 is $2,950.

Explanation:

Given the following:

Retained earnings at the end of Year 2 = $3,350

Revenue earned by the company in Year 2 = $3,600

Expenses paid during the period = $1,900

Dividends paid during the period = $1,300

Retained earning for year 2 = Revenue earned by the company in Year 2 - Expenses paid during the period - Dividends paid during the period = $3,600 - $1,900 - $1,300 = $400

Retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 can be using the following formula:

Retained earnings at the end of Year 2 = Retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 + Retained earning for year 2 .......... (1)

Substituting the values into equation (1) and sole for Retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2, we have:

$3,350 = Retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 + $400

Retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 = $3,350 - $400 = $2,950

Therefore, retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 is $2,950.

You consider buying a share of stock at a price of $25. The stock is expected to pay a dividend of $1 next year, and your adviso

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

5%

Explanation:

stock's Alpha = R - Rf - beta (Rm - Rf)

R represents the stock's return = $6/$25 = 24%
Rf = 6%
Beta = 1.3
Rm = 16%

Alpha = 0.24 - 0.06 - 1.3 (0.1) = 0.24 - 0.06 - 0.13 = 0.24 - 0.19 = 0.05 = 5%

A stock's Alpha is basically the excess return that the stock yields compared to an specific benchmark, e.g. S&P 500, Dow Jones.
