Answer:
Two activities scheduled to be carried out in parallel and using the same scarce resource are independent.
Explanation:
An Israeli physicist named, Eliyahu M. Goldratt developed the Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) and introduced it in his book "Critical Chain" in 1997.
The CCPM is a project management methodology used by managers to better manage a project. The CCPM ensures that the project plan is feasible and immune from any uncertainty or statistical fluctuations.
In the CCPM activity network, there are no milestones and all non-critical activities are performed as late as possible.
CCPM adopts the use of drum buffers, so as to ensure extra safety is applied to a project immediately before using constrained resource.
According to Goldratt, two activities scheduled to be carried out in parallel and using the same scarce resource are independent.
Answer:
$225,400
Explanation:
The computation of total contribution margin under variable costing is shown below:-
Sales (4900 × $88) $431,200
Less:Variable cost
Direct material (4900 × $12) ($58,800)
Direct labor (4900 × 23) ($112,700)
Variable manufacturing overhead
(4900 × 2) ($9,800)
Variable selling and administrative
expenses (4900 × $5) ($24,500)
Total variable expenses ($205,800)
Contribution margin $225,400
Therefore the total contribution margin under variable costing is $225,400

Options:
a. There must be at least two parties.
b. Each party is free to accept or reject the exchange offer.
c. Each party believes it is appropriate or desirable to deal with the other party.
d. Each party has something that might be of value to the other party.
Answer:
c. Each party believes it is appropriate or desirable to deal with the other party.
Explanation:
Criteria C is the criteria that will most directly relate to Deon's cancellation of the sponsorships. Business deals and relationships cannot be established or allowed to subsist when it becomes inappropriate or undesirable to deal with the other party because of controversial activities. This is more so when the activities involve political and social justice beliefs and differences. Ordinarily, business partners should not allow such personal prejudices to becloud their relationships. The best approach, therefore, is for business partners to keep their political and social justice beliefs personal and not make them public issues.
Answer:
It means that the marginal cost of going to the movies is less than the marginal benefit of going to the movies.
Explanation:
If the student chooses to go to the movies, it means that he thinks he has less to lose when he foregoes studying for a test. Even though logically it may appear that the latter would be a better option, according to him, the 2 or so hours at the movies would provide an extra value like if he went with a family member who he cares about. That probably beats the cost of staying up late to revise for the test.
