Answer:

C. An open system: Changes in the task environment affect the general environment, and changes in the general environment affect the task environment.

Explanation:

Suppose that the general enviroment is the whole office building, and the task enviroment is your cubicle, and the four other cubicles surrounding you.

If the task enviroment in your area becomes dirty and unpleasant, the working conditions of you and your four colleagues will deteriorate, probably causing loses in productivity, affecting the company's productivity as a whole. Besides, if the task enviroment is not cleaned soon, the dirt will spread to other areas inside the building, affecting the general enviroment.

The general enviroment affects more easily the task enviroment. Simply imagine if the HVAC system of the office building fails: your task enviroment will not have heating or cooling and working conditions will become difficult.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a. 4.92 years

b. NPV = $26,770.20

c. 1.0837

d. IRR = 12.26%

e. 15.6%

the project should be accepted

Explanation:

Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows

Payback period = Amount invested / cash flow = $320,000 / $65,000 = 4.92 years

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

NPV and IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-320,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = $65,000

I = 10%

NPV = $26,770.20

IRR = 12.26%

profitability index = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment) = 1 + ($26,770.20 / $320,000 ) = 1.0837

The project should be accepted because the NPV and profitability index are positive. the IRR is greater than the discount rate. this means that the project is profitable. Accounting rate of return = Average net income / Average book value

Average book value = (cost of equipment - salvage value) / 2 = $320,000 / 2 = $160,000

$25,000 / $160,000 = 0.156 = 15.6%

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

Full settlement generally means DISCOUNT ALLOWED.

Firstly , Read out the question and try to understand. It says we purchased some stuffs of Rs 30000 from the sansee stores and we payed Rs 28000 in full settlement which implies that we received the discount of Rs 30000-28000 i.e Rs 2000.

You must have known the rules for debit and credit. As we know In case of personal account , Debit : The receiver , We have sansee stores as the receiver so we placed it in debit side.

Remember: When the question says that the cash is payed through cheque , you should always consider cheque as a bank. Now , In the case of personal account , Credit : The giver. Who's the giver? Of course , bank! So , we placed it in credit side.

Now , In case of nominal account , Credit : the incomes or gains . The question says we received the discount so obviously it's not expenses. So, We placed discount received in credit side. You must have studied that Every debit should have equal credit. And we're done!

- Hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions regarding my answer and also don't hesitate to reach out to me if you need any other help! :)

Molodets [167]

Answer:

the marginal cost curve is upward sloping.

Explanation:

Utility can be defined as any satisfaction or benefits a customer derives from the use of a product or service.

This ultimately implies that, any satisfaction or benefits a customer derives from the use of a product or service is generally referred to as a utility.

Basically, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.

For example, buying a candy stick and eating it may satisfy your cravings but eating another one (an additional or extra unit) wouldn't give you as much satisfaction as the first due to diminishing marginal utility.

In Economics, the law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

Marginal cost can be defined as the additional or extra cost that is being incurred by a company as a result of the production of an additional unit of a product or service.

Generally, marginal cost can be calculated by dividing the change in production costs by the change in level of output or quantity. A marginal cost curve is upward sloping because of the law of diminishing returns.
