Answer:

The correct answer is E. One example of an agency relationship is the one between stockholders and managers..

Explanation:

Agency theory is a business technique by which a person or company (the principal) asks another person (the agent) to perform a certain job on their behalf. For an agency relationship to exist, the agent must be authorized by the principal to sign, modify or cancel contracts with third parties on behalf of the principal.

In a way, it is a measure of business representation with perfectly legal validity by which it is compatible to act by separating the property of the company and its control or management on multiple occasions, thanks to the fact that the agreement, despite being carried out by the agent, will have legal and real validity as if the principal had done it in the first person.For example, there are companies that for different reasons benefit more from having an external company for the transport of their goods instead of doing that task for themselves.

Another common example of this type of agency relationship is that maintained by the shareholders of a company and its managers.

Markland First National Bank of Rolla utilizes Kanban techniques in its check processing facility. The fol-lowing information is

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

the current daily demand of the check processing facility is 8000 units, and a 16 containers is required.

Explanation:

Solution

Given that,

(A) The calculation of delay demand is as follows:

K = (+_) (1 +) C

K = is the number of containers

d = the average delay demand

w = the waiting time per average per unit

p = the average processing time per unit

C = Container quantity

α = safe guard policy variable

Now,

The average processing time = 2/24 * 60 =0.0167

The average waiting time is = 2/24 =0.083

The required number of container = 20 = (0.083 + 0.0167 ) (1 + 0.25) /50

which is

20 * 50 = (0.1) (1.25)

Thus,

1000 / 0.125 = 8000

Now,

The average daily demand is 8000

The next step is to find out how many containers would be needed.

Now,

If there is no waste, it is = 0

The required number of containers will be =

K = 8000 ( 0.083 + 0.0167) ( 1 + 0 )/ 50

= 8000/5= 16 Containers

Nichols Inc. is considering a project that has the following cash flow data. What is the project's IRR? Note that a project's IR

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a. 9.43%

Explanation:

IRR is the rate of return that makes initial investment equal to present value of cash inflows

Initial investment = Annuity*[1 - 1 /(1 + r)^n] /r

1250 = 325 * [1 - 1 / (1 + r)^5] /r

Using trial and error method, i.e., after trying various values for R, lets try R as 9.43%

1250 = 325 * [1 - 1 / (1 + 0.0943)5] /0.0943

1250 = 325 * 3.846639

1250 = 1,250

Therefore, The project IRR is 9.43%

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

(a) (i) Define the term "Green Revolution" as used during the period 1945 to 1985.

The use of modern agricultural techniques became widespread around many regions in the world. This led to higher yields through the use of fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified seeds and mechanical machinery.

(ii) Explain the principal agricultural practices/technologies associated with the green revolution.

extensive use of fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified seeds and mechanical machinery.

(iii) Name TWO regions, in different parts of the world, where the green revolution has had a significant impact on crop yields.

In North America, Mexican food production increased and they stopped importing food. Although currently that has reversed, and it is importing even more food than before.
In Brazil, agricultural production increased dramatically. Both total farmed area and yields have continued to increase in the past years becoming a threat to the amazon basin.

(b) Identify and discuss TWO social, political, or cultural conditions necessary for the success of the agricultural practices/technologies of the green revolution.

Emigration from rural areas to urban areas which resulted in a rapid expansion of urban centers. Since less labor was needed in farms, many people left rural areas due to lack of jobs.
People started accepting genetically modified crops, which were not well accepted at first. A lot of money was invested in research and development of new seeds, fertilizers and pesticides.

(c) Identify and discuss TWO significant economic or ecological factors that may limit the long-term success of the agricultural practices/technologies of the green revolution.

Many new agricultural techniques have resulted in a decrease of soil fertility. In many places crops cannot grow unless a lot of fertilizer is used.
Countries were the green revolution was originally successful, like Mexico (where it started), have reduced the total area dedicated to crops. As the yields increased, the price of food started to decrease and many small farms could not keep operating.
