Give (2) examples how we deal with "Scarcity"

Business
1 answer:

Answer:

Either increasing supply or lowering demand

Explanation:

increasing supply:

e.g. when less developed countries (LDCs) experience a famine or drought, other countries can supply food and/or water to them

lowering demand:

finding alternative solutions of the product (that have the same effect as the original product) or reducing the reasons for why there is a high demand

- e.g. crops not growing well due to weather/crop disease going around -> find a crop that is more resistant to the disease (reducing reasons for demand)

- e.g. rice field has an infestation -> not yielding enough rice to feed the population -> population feels hungry and other foods cannot help them feel full/sustain them -> find another crop to substitute, like yam or potatoes that are equally filling (alternative solutions)

but these two are pretty much the same so

also please note I don't take any courses on supply and demand other than geography so I might be completely wrong

What is the bullwhip effect and how does it relate to lack of coordination in a supply chain?
rewona [7]

Answer:

The bullwhip effect happens when retailers or other members of the supply chain overestimate a sudden increase in demand, and this causes a chain reaction in all the other participants of the supply chain that start requesting higher quantities of goods or materials for production. E.g. the fidget spinner was a very popular fad and its producers probably didn't anticipate how large the demand would be. Once the product became extremely popular, everyone wanted to sell fidget spinners. This caused an increase in the order quantities of all the supply chain. Once the fad faded out, all this momentum stopped and many stores, distributors, wholesalers, and even factories were left with huge unsold stocks of fidget spinners.

When the supply chain is well coordinated, there is little chance for some retailers or distributors to over react and want more product just in case. If your supply is guaranteed, then it would take some extraordinary increase in demand to make you want to increase your purchase orders. But if your supply chain is not well coordinated, you might fear that you will lose a lot of sales and other competitors will make them. Then you get anxious and start ordering large quantities.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. True

Separation of record keeping for assets from custody over assets in custody over assets reduces theft and fraud . except in a case of collusion.

Fraud and theft of assets can be easily perpetrated and covered up when an individual combines the role.

2. False

Internal control focuses more on the internal operation of an organization rather than the external. Even though it can still be of impact in checking the excesses of external parties like the government agencies , but that is not its primary objective

3.True

Internal control's main objectives can be best accomplished when there is an operational system with managerial policies that protect waste , fraud and theft , being the major factors targeted to control

4.False

Separating the responsibility for a transaction between two or more individuals or departments is a major way of preventing creation of fictitious invoices and payment as it could have easily be detected if different individuals are involved in approval and payment of invoices.

Logan, a 50 percent shareholder in Military Gear Inc. (MG), is comparing the tax consequences of losses from C corporations with
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

$9,840

Explanation:

In this question, we have to take the difference between the payment for S corporation and the C corporation

If Military Gear Inc is a C corporation, then the payment would be

= Ordinary income × marginal tax rate

= $84,000 × 24%

= $20,160

And, if Military Gear Inc is a S corporation, then the payment would be

= (Ordinary income - net effect) ×  marginal tax rate

= ($84,000 - $41,000) × 24%

= $43,000 × 24%

= $10,320

The net effect would be

= $159,000 - $118,000

= $41,000

The net payment would be

= $20,160 - $10,320

= $9,840
