A worker, who is typical in all respects, works for a wage of $30,000 per year in a perfectly safe occupation. Another typical w

orker does a job requiring exactly the same skills as the first worker, but in a risky occupation with a known death probability of 1 in 1,000 per year, and receives a wage of $36,000 per year. What value of a human life for workers with these characteristics should a cost-benefit analyst use?

Answer:

$6,000,000

Explanation:

Change in risk = 0 in 1,000 to 1 in 1,000 = 0 to 0.001 = +0.001

Change in wage = $30,000 to $36,000 = +$6,000

Therefore:

wage/risk = 6,000/0.001

= $6 million or $6,000,0000

The value of a human life for workers with these characteristics should a cost-benefit analyst use is $6,000,000 because workers are willing to receive an extra $6,000 for a 1 in 1,000 increase in risk of death, implying a value of life of $6 million)Value of human life for workers with these characteristics = $6 million .

In order words the workers require $6,000 to accept a death risk of .001. The value of life implied by this is $6,000/.001 = $6,000,000.

Darrin’s employees are highly skilled, so he allows them free rein to do their jobs.
Oxana [17]

Answer::Leader-Member exchange , Out group members

Explanation:Leader-Member exchange theory is a relationship based theory of leadership  that exists between the leading managers and their n employees  together with their  interaction  with each other leading to a productive  workplace environment for both individuals.

The  created relationship can either succeed   when there is trust and mutual respect leading to effective employees  or  fail by producing  undesired result in terms of a hostile relationship leading to low efficiency and productivity from employees

According to the leader member exchange theory, leaders tend to  create  different relationships with followers by forming two groups----- in group members  and out group members

of which the outgroup members are  given less responsibilities with less attention and work outside  the leaders inner circle of communication and therefore are less likely to engage in organizational citizenship than other employees.

A manufacturer of handcrafted wine racks has determined that the cost to produce x units per month is given by upper c equals 0.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The cost per month is increasing at a rate $365.

Explanation:

Differentiation Formula

  • \frac{d}{dx}(x^n)= nx^{n-1}  
  • \frac{d}{dx}(a)=0             [ where a is a constant]
  • \frac{d}{dx}(ax^n)=a \frac{d}{dx}(x^n)= anx^{n-1}

Given that,

A manufacturer of handcrafted wine racks has determined that the cost to produce x units per month is given by

c=0.2x^2+10,000.

Again given that,

the rate of changing production is 13 unit per month

i.e \frac{dx}{dt}=13

To find the cost per month, we need to find out the value \frac{dc}{dt} when production is changing at the rate 13 units per month and the production is 70 units.

c=0.2x^2+10,000

Differentiating with respect to t

\frac{d}{dt}(c)=\frac{d}{dt}(0.2x^2)+\frac{d}{dx}(10,000)

\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.2\frac{d}{dt}(x^2)+\frac{d}{dx}(10,000)

\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.2\times 2x^{2-1}\frac{dx}{dt}+0

\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.4x\frac{dx}{dt}

Plugging \frac{dx}{dt}=13

\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.4x\times 13

\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=5.2x

\frac{dc}{dt}|_{x=70}=5.2\times 70 [ plugging x=70]

            =364

[ The unit of c is not given. Assume that the unit of c is dollar.]

The cost per month is increasing at a rate $365.

What are the three basic questions faced by every economy
Likurg_2 [28]

The three basic questions asked are:

1. What goods and services should be produced?

This is asked because the economy wants to produce what the consumers want or else the resources aren't being used efficiently since resources are scarce.

2. How should we produce them?

This is asked because the producers don't want to spend unnecessary time or money on production, so they must choose wisely what method of production is best for their company and consumers.

3. Who are the consumers?

This is asked because the producers want to make sure that they are targeting the right people with advertising or selling.

Hope this helped!
