Answer:

Opportunity

Explanation:

In the SWOT analysis, external events are classified as either Opportunities or Threats, while internal events are classified as either Strenghts or Weaknesses.

In this case, we find that Blockchain is a technology that is external to IBM, and that IBM has the technological capita, and know-how, to enter this market and develop its own version of Blockchain. For this reason, the growth of Blockchain technology represents an opportunity for IBM.

When a tariff is imposed, there is always an additional loss. One loss occurs when consumers purchase fewer units of the good be
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is Production loss.

Explanation:

The quantifiable cost associated with the interruption of the operation of a pump is low when compared to the cost throughout its useful life in an installation carried out in a commercial building. However, the loss of comfort suffered by users of the building makes it advisable to have a spare pump.

Unlike what happens in production processes, stopping a pump from a commercial building almost never results in a loss of production. On the contrary, the interruption is usually translated into a loss of comfort. However, the immeasurable costs associated with downtime may be even higher if, for example, hotel guests run out of water. Therefore, it is always advisable to install a replacement pump to prevent comfort losses caused by an unexpected failure in the pumping system. The communication capabilities of electronically controlled pumps E help minimize downtime because replacement and repair work can be completed more quickly in the event of a breakdown. A backup pump is used to prevent downtime and consequent loss of comfort in the event of a breakdown.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

$1.40 per share

Explanation:

The computation of the diluted earning per share is shown below:

Diluted earning per share = Net income ÷ weighted number of shares

where,

Net income is $300,000

And, the weighted number of shares is

= 200,000 shares + (45,000 options - 45,000 options × $10 ÷ $15

= 200,000 shares + (45,000 options - 30,000 options)

= 200,000 shares + 15,000

= 215,000 shares

So, the diluted per share is

= $300,000 ÷ 215,000 shares

= $1.40 per share

A company has revenues of $100 during Year 1. Each year their profit is 20% of revenue. Revenue is growing 15% per year. How muc
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

$406.07

Explanation:

Revenue for year 1 = $100

Profit = 20%

Growth rate of revenue, = 15% per year = 0.15

Now,

year 1 is the base year thus, take it as n = 0

Revenue for the year = $100 × ( 1 + r )ⁿ

Profit = 20% of [$100 × ( 1 + r )ⁿ]

Year       n              Revenue               Profit

  1           0            $100( 1 + r )⁰            $20

  2          1            $100( 1 + r )¹             $23

  3          2            $100( 1 + r )²            $26.45

  4          3            $100( 1 + r )³            $30.4175

  5          4            $100( 1 + r )⁴            $34.98

  6          5            $100( 1 + r )⁵            $40.227

  7          6            $100( 1 + r )⁶            $46.261

  8          7            $100( 1 + r )⁷            $53.2004

  9          8            $100( 1 + r )⁸            $61.1804

  10         9            $100( 1 + r )⁹            $70.357

   Hence,

Total profit for the year 1 - 10 = $406.07
