Answer: broad span of control

Explanation: Reorganizing and eliminating layers of management in order to remain profitable often results in a broad span of control. When layers of management are eliminated, organizations tend to get flatter (a flat organization consists of fewer layers of management), spans of control (which are the areas of activity and number of functions, these managers are responsible for) get wider, and the remaining managers usually empower employees to make more decisions due to wider spans of control.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. Profit is the financial gain from business activity minus expenses.

Explanation:

For example a company whose business activity is selling chairs has sold 10 chairs in a month at 10 dollars each which it has bought in 6 dollars (per chair). The company has incurred 5 dollars as admin expenses and had paid 10 dollars to commercial bank as interest. So what is company profit?

Calculation.

The profit will be 25$ as shown below.

Sales                     (10*10) 100

Purchase               (10*6)  (60)

Admin expense                 (5)

Financial expense             (10)

Profit                                   25

P = A/I =15,000÷0.05=300,000

The amount that would need to have been deposited 25 years ago is
P=A÷(1+r)^t
P=300,000÷(1+0.05)^(25)

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n=1 (monopoly) we have Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}

Explanation:

In the case of a homogeneous-good Cournot model we have that firm i will solve the following profit maximizing problem

Max_{q_i} \,\, \Pi_i=(a-b(\sum_{i=1}^n q_i)-m)q_i

from the FPC we have that

a-b\sum_{i=1}^n q_i -m -b q_i=0

q_i=\frac{a-b \sum_{i=2}^n q_i-m}{2b}

since all firms are homogeneous this means that q_i=q \forall i

then q=\frac{a-b (n-1) q-m}{2b}=\frac{a-m}{(n+1)b}

the industry output is then

Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n=1 (monopoly) we have Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}
