Answer:
The long and short-term consequences of not promoting equality or working to reduce poverty are:
1. the poverty gap widens, causing many more of the population to become poor while a few become richer.
2. extreme poverty becomes the norm, thereby hampering societal progress.
3. discrimination and social classes become oppressive.
Explanation:
Economic equality describes a situation that ensures that every individual in a society has an equal economic opportunity to make the most of their lives and talents by having some access to resources. Equality reduces discrimination among certain groups of the population, especially those with protected characteristics such as race, disability, sex, and sexual orientation. It ensures the fair distribution of natural resources among the population, according to their individual needs and capacity. It does not mean sameness in social or economic status.
The importance and benefits of valuing and promoting cultural diversity in work with children and young people are the following:
1. It promotes equality with the rest of the cultures.
2. It creates awareness of the different cultures of other races. With the awareness, children would gain respect for other races.
3. It creates a positive working environment.
The decision to build the park or not would be based solely
on the cost – benefit relationship of this project. Since there is no other
factor considered in this problem, you only need to see if the benefit of
constructing the park would exceed its cost. In this problem, the cost to
construct the park is $20,000 while the marginal benefit would be $24,000
($8,000 x 3 families that can benefit from this project). Therefore, you can
say that the benefit has exceeded its cost. As a conclusion, the neighborhood
park should be built because it benefits the families living in that area more
than its cost.
Answer: uses a behavior pattern classification for costs rather than a functional cost classification approach.
Explanation:
The behavioral pattern of a cost refers to its relationship with the volume of production or sales. Costs that change along with the volume of production or sales are termed "variable costs" and costs that do not change are termed "fixed costs".
The Contribution Margin income statement classifies costs by whether they are variable or fixed which is why it is said that the format uses a behavioral for cost classification pattern not a functional one.
