The correct answer is B. Urbanization lowers the peak discharge of streams and decreases the lag time after a rainstorm.
Answer:
Diminishing marginal product of labor.
Explanation:
Remembering the law of diminishing marginal product which states that by additing unit of labour, while keeping other factors constant would over time lead to lesser output of labour.
Thus one may expect a sports team who continues to add players (additional unit of labour) to its roster above the minimum in the field would eventually not lead to increase efficiency in the field since other factors are kept constant such as increase training for players.
Answer: Positive.
Explanation:
Suppose there are two related goods, i.e, Good A and Good B.
Cross price elasticity of demand refers to the responsiveness of demand for Good A if there is a change in the price of its related good, i.e, Good B.
Now, we are talking about gasoline and public transportation, suppose if there is increase in the price of gasoline then it will be costlier for the people to drive their own cars, as a result demand for public transportation increases.
There is a positive relationship between the gasoline and public transportation.
Hence, cross-price elasticity of demand between gasoline and public transportation is Positive.
Answer:
"Perhaps we should explore which stakeholders would stand to win or lose from such a decision."
Explanation:
An ethical decision is one that is aimed towards generating trust from other parties. It shows responsibility, fairness, and caring towards a person.
In this scenario your manager suggests you postpone processing any existing claims in the 4th quarter until the new fiscal year (some claims are as high as $150,000).
The best ethical response will be - Perhaps we should explore which stakeholders would stand to win or lose from such a decision.
This will result in self reflection about who will be affected by the decision. The consideration will not be just the immediate 4th quarter impact of postponing the warranty claims.
This is the most ethical decision among the options.
