Wang Distributors has an annual demand for an airport metal detector of 1,400 units. The cost of a typical detector to Wang is $

400. Carrying cost is estimated to be 20% of the unit costs, and the ordering is $25 per order. If Ping Wang, the owner, orders in quantities of 300 or more, he can get a 5% discount on the cost of the detectors. Should Wang take the quantity discount?

Answer:

Wang should take the quantity discount

Explanation:

Total minimum cost for both cases i.e. with and without discount is evaluated.

1. Without the discount

Demand - 1,400 units

Ordering cost - $25 per order

Cost of detector- $400

Carrying cost - 20%

Applying EOQ formula: √ (2*1,400*25)/(400*20%) = 29.580

Total cost = (400*1400) + (1400*25*2/29.580) = 562,366

2. With discount

Demand - 1,400 units

Ordering cost - $25 per order

Cost of detector i.e. 400 x 20%- $380

Carrying cost - 20%

Applying EOQ formula: √ (2*1,400*25)/(380*20%) = 30.3488

Applying variables to obtain total cost as in 1 above = 543,516.67

Therefore, since total cost is lower after the discount, Wang should take the quantity discount.

How has Chinese economic growth benefited the Australian economy?
Radda [10]

Answer:

First, rising wages and consumer demand will increase demand for more sophisticated manufactured goods (where Australia has some niches of excellence, for example, in medical devices) and for services such as tourism (where China is already an important market).

Answer:

D. Will the Jury award be worth it?

Explanation:

Jones asking himself if whistle blowing is the only way to stop unethical behavior and wrong doing before making decision whether or not to whistleblow is important, as if there are alternative measures to be taken that would mitigate those actions, it might be better to take those alternatives.

Same thing with whether he has documentary evidence to back up his accusatory statements and the reason for whistleblowing.

But the one thing that shouldn't have bearing on his decision is if the Jury award would be worth it. Whether or not there's an award for whistleblowing shouldn't be the determinant or driving factor that decides whether or not he should whistleblow. Its unethical to consider the monetary aspect or award gotten from whistleblowing.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Our western civilization is leaning towards empowering people, specially women and minorities. Men and women are considered equal, and neither of them will accept an authoritarian leader.

Authoritarian leaders are self centered and try to focus everything on them. They don't like to accept suggestions or ideas from their subordinates and dislike creativity. Even benevolent autocratic behavior is bad, it is less bad than other types of autocrats, but still bad. Benevolent autocrats try to inspire and guide their subordinates, of course, all under his/her wing.

On the other hand, a democratic leadership style that fosters employee participation in the decision making processes is easily accepted by most employees nowadays. In our western culture, we believe in democracy and any gain made that increases our rights and well beings in our work, school, or society in general is considered positive. While any behavior that goes against our rights or democratic beliefs will be disliked.

Colt1911 [192]

A bond is a sort of security used in finance where the issuer owes the holder a debt and is required, depending on the terms, to repay the principal and interest on the bond at the maturity date.

<h3>What is Bond?</h3>

In exchange for regular interest payments, a bondholder loans money to a business or the government for a predetermined length of time. When the bond matures, the bond's issuer pays the investor their money back. A bond is a sort of security used in finance where the issuer owes the holder a debt and is required, depending on the terms, to repay the principal and interest on the bond at the maturity date.

Bonds can be classified into five categories: corporate, municipal, agency, savings, and Treasury. Each sort of bond has its own vendors, goals, purchasers, and risk-to-return ratios. Bond-based instruments, such as bond mutual funds, can also be purchased if you want to profit from bonds.

One of the key components of the American economic system is interest rates. They have an impact on borrowing costs, savings yields, and are a significant contributor to the overall return on many assets. Additionally, certain interest rates offer information about upcoming economic and financial market activities.
