Answer:

(a) 2

(b) 2.25

(c) 12.5%

Explanation:

To solve this question we need to remember that

Total \, Productivity = \frac{Total\,Ouput}{Total \, Man \, Hours}

(a) 10 persons produce 160 valves in 8 hours, this implies a productivity of 2=160/(8x10)

(b) 2.25= 180/(8x10)

(c) Percentage change is given by (2.25-2)/2=.125

vovikov84 [41]
Ian is a uniquely good position here: the truth happens to be one of the best explanations he could possibly give. The fact that he quit his job to look after his sick mother, assuming that his former employer has positive things to say about him, is a solid reflection of his character and a sign that he was out of the job market not due to a lack of options, but a need to take care of a sick family member.
Ian should tell the truth, and explain the decision thoroughly to demonstrate the kind of person he is to the prospective employer, and what his priorities are.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: 48000

Explanation:

The Expenditure Approach is a method of measuring GDP by calculating all spending throughout the economy including consumer consumption, investing, government spending, and net exports. This method calculates what a country produces, assuming that the finished goods and services of a country equals the amount spent in the country for that period.

<u>The formula is: </u>

GDP=C+I+G+/-NX

GDP: Gross Domestic Product

(C) consumer spending – this is the amount that all consumers spend on goods and services for personal use.

(I) investment – this is the amount that businesses or owners spend to invest in new equipment or expansions.

(G) government spending – this includes spending on new infrastructure like bridges and roads.

(NX) net exports – this includes spending on a country’s exports minus its spending on imports.

AddedGDP= 56000-8000

AddedGDP= 48000
