agasfer [191]

Manager who subscribe to Theory X believe that people are naturally lazy and uncooperative and therefore must either be rewarded or punished to be made productive to achieve the target.

Theory X and theory y are two theories of human motivation and management created by Douglas McGregor based on the works of Abraham Maslow and demonstrate opposing models of workforce motivation. Theory X works on the assumption that the typical worker is unambitious, selfish, uncooperative and avoids responsibility, unintelligent, lazy, and that their main motivation is a steady income.

Managers who employ these assumptions tend to use a reward/punishment system as a motivator and expect increased efficiency with a hands-on approach. Under this type of management, individuals are more likely to directly receive a negative or positive outcome and are considered to be most effective in a workforce with low-performance motivation. A workplace that involves assembly lines or manual labor is ideal for this managerial style.

If produced by Method A, a product's initial capital cost will be $100,000, its annual operating cost will be $20,000, and its s

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The correct answer is Method A should be selected.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Method A Method B

Initial capital cost= $1,00,000 $1,50,000

Operating cost= $20,000 $1,00,000

Salvage value= $20,000 $50,000

Present worth = -Initial capital cost - Operating cost × [( 1 + i)^n - i÷1 (1+i)^n] + Salvage value × 1÷(1+i)^n

Method A = -$100,000 - $20,000 × [(1 + 0.15)^3 - 1÷0.15 (1 + 0.15)^3] + $20,000 *(1 ÷ (1+0.15)^3

= -$100,000 - $20,000 × [1.520875 - 1 ÷ 0.228131] + $20,000 × (1 ÷ 1.520875)

= -$100,000 - $20,000 × 2.283225 + $20,000 × 0.6575

= -$100,000 - $45,664.5 + $13,150.324

= -$132,513.68

Method B = -$150,000 - $100,000 × [(1 + 0.15)^3 - 1 ÷ 0.15 (1 + 0.15)^3] + $50,000 × (1 ÷ (1 + 0.15)^3

= - $150,000 - $100,000 × [1.520875 - 1 ÷ 0.228131 ] + $50,000 × ( 1 ÷ 1.520875 )

= - $150,000 - $100,000 × 2.283225 + $50,000 × 0.6575

= - $150,000 - $228,322.5 + $32,875

= - $345,447

According to the analysis Method A will be selected because it’s show low negativity.

Semmy [17]

Studies indicate that the price elasticity of demand for beer is about 0.9. A government policy aimed at reducing beer consumption changed the price of a case of beer from $10 to $20. According to the midpoint method, the government policy should have reduced beer consumption by (c) 60%.

Explanation:

The Price elasticity of demand (PED or Ed) is defined as a measure used in economics to show the relation or elasticity of the quantity demanded of a good or service to increase in its price when only the price changes.

The price elasticity of demand is calculated as the percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price.

Studies indicate that the price elasticity of demand for beer is about 0.9. A government policy aimed at reducing beer consumption changed the price of a case of beer from $10 to $20. According to the midpoint method, the government policy should have reduced beer consumption by (c) 60%.
