Answer:

Outside vendors specializing in all aspects of benefits administration would provide improved support to the firm's employees.

Explanation:

Shared services HR teams provide specialized support of day-to-day transactional HR activities to the company's employees by focusing on using centralized call centers and outsourcing arrangements with vendors (like benefits providers). By utilizing HR shared services, Whitman and the other managers can now devote more time to other HR matters while improving benefits enrollment and coverage by deferring those questions to benefits specialists.

If the price of Good Y falls from $10 to $8, and the quantity supplied of it falls from 1,000 units to 600 units, the price elas
dexar [7]

Answer:

Price elasticity of supply = 2.25

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply is defined as the degree to which quantity of a product supplied is sensitive to changes in price.

In a competitive market when the price of a good increases its supply also increases. This is because suppliers want to make more profit from the higher product price.

Price elasticity of supply = %∆ Quantity ÷ %∆ price

Price elasticity of supply = {(600 - 1000) ÷ (1000 + 600)/2}/ {(8 - 10) ÷ (10+8)/2}

Price elasticity of supply = -0.5 ÷ -0.2222

Price elasticity of supply = 2.25
