Answer:
Paul is NOT maximizing his utility.
Explanation:
Given:
MU
= Marginal utility from DVDs = 21
MU
= Marginal utility from books = 4
P = Price of DVDS = $11
P = Price of books = $1
Under the utility maximization theory for two or more goods, utility is said to be maximized by a consumer when the ratios of the marginal utility to price per unit of each good are equal to each other. For this question, this implies that when we have:
MU / P = MU / P ………………………….. (1)
Therefore, we have:
MU / P = 21 / 11 = 1.91
MU / P = 4 / 1 = 4
Since 1.91 = MU / P < MU / P = 4, this implies that these conditions are NOT consistent with equation (1). Therefore, Paul is NOT maximizing his utility.
In order to maximize his utility, Paul should consume more DVDs and consume less books until these conditions are consistent with equation (1).
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "E": anchoring and adjustment heuristic.
Explanation:
Anchoring-and-Adjustment heuristics refers to estimations made by individuals according to certain information that come to their minds that are adjusted until an acceptable level of accuracy is reached. The latter is the cause of this practice to be inefficient because it is based on finding one optimal level of accuracy only without looking for others that could provide more proper results.
Answer:
D. Customers and suppliers willing to learn and evolve with new technology
Explanation:
In an implementation of any new IT system, the resistance to adoption from different stakeholders in the organizations is one of the most difficult challenges that is faced by the project managers. To overcome this resistance, the project manager needs to be accustomed to the basic principles of change management which involves:
1 - Designing incentive systems that forces all the stakeholders to adopt the new system.
2- Manage proper communication strategy that conveys the benefits of adopting the new system and conduct training for all the users.
However, there will still be resistance from certain suppliers and customers to the adoption of the new system. Which can lead to failed implementation of the system. However by doing the following, any organization can make sure that customers and suppliers quickly become an integral part of the IT system:
1- Take feedback from the customers and suppliers so that not only a more user friendly system can be designed, but also customers will be more invested as they feel they have been part of the decision making process.
2- Invite customers and suppliers to use the company resources to make themselves accustomed to the new system.
