C. The company’s prospectus
Answer:
Hugh's statement is an attempt to reduce his frustration about buying the product at a more expensive price.
Explanation:
Human beings always try to find a reason to justify their actions, even if that particular action was a bad one.
Hugh bought a calculator for $125 from one store and the next week, he saw the same calculator being advertised for a significantly lower amount. He felt cheated and he immediately blamed himself for being cheated when there was a better deal out there. As a way to make himself feel better about the ordeal, he tells himself that the product quality from the second store is always known to be of an inferior quality.
This is a defence mechanism to cover or try to hide our frustrations and anger at things not going our way so we invent something that will make us immediately feel better about ourselves and our decision.
Answer: $4,800
Explanation:
First find the Annual holding cost:
= Average inventory * Cost of holding a unit
= 500/2 * 1 * 12 months
= $3,000
Then find the Annual ordering cost:
= Expected units to be sold/ Units ordered * Ordering cost
= 9,000/500 * 100
= $1,800
Annual Inventory cost = Annual holding cost + Annual ordering cost
= 3,000 + 1,800
= $4,800
In swimming competition, the height and the length of limbs of the competitors matter because they determine how quickly they can move through the water and the number of turns they will need to do before reaching the finishing line. Men are naturally at advantage because they are usually taller and have longer legs and arms which help them to be quicker inside the water. This is a classic examples of gender difference in sport. Beth needs to put in additional works toward the competition in order to be able to finish early more than her competitors despite the fact that she has shorter arms and legs. Continuous training will help her to develop her muscle mass and help her to exert the necessary energy she needs get to the finish line on time.
