Answer: The answer is workers intentionally reduce their productivity.

Explanation:

A slow down refers to an industrial act in which employees carry out their duties but lower or reduce productivity. It is used as an alternative to a strike because it is less dangerous, less disruptive and less expensive for the union and workers. It is a way of putting pressure on management rather than embarking on strike.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Total maintenance costs = $1,750,000 + $125X,

where X = Number of Heart Stents

Production = 25,000 stents last year.

Total maintenance costs = $1,750,000 + $125 * 25,000

= $1,750,000 + $3,125,000

fenix001 [56]

Answer: $32.70

Explanation:

According to the dividend discount model, the value of the stock today is the present value of the dividends to be paid plus the present value of the value of the dividend from when the company starts maintaining a stable growth rate which in this question in year 2.

= (Year 1 Dividend / ( 1 + r)) + (Year 2 Dividend / ( 1 + r)²) + (value at year 2 / ( r - g))

Value at year 2 = Year 3 dividend / ( required return - growth rate)

= ( Year 2 dividend * (1 + g)) / ( required return - growth rate)

= (2.46* ( 1 + 0.039)) / ( 0.113 - 0.039)

= $34.54

Value today = (Year 1 Dividend / ( 1 + r)) + (Year 2 Dividend / ( 1 + r)²) + (value at year 2 / ( r - g))

= 3.15/1.113 + 2.46/1.113² + 34.54/1.113²

= 2.83 + 1.99 + 27.88

= $32.70

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: Railways - the first industrial revolution, the Internet - the second, the technological - the oboe, the steam engine - the beginning, the telegraph - the first, the Feedback loops - second, The flying shuttle the first, The possibility of traveling from coast to coast in the US in under a wee - the first.

Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution brought about textural changes in people's lives, in everyday life, in the economy, in production. It went through several stages and always brought with it certain technological advances that made life easier for people. We link railways and the development of rail transport to the first industrial revolution. With steam technology, the first trains were launched and later this technology spread to the whole world. The emergence of the Internet is tied to the second half of the 20th century. It is a technology that has completely transformed the world, and without which life, today is almost impossible. When it comes to the technological revolution, it is still happening today. In this context, we bind it to both stages of the revolution. The advent of steamboats has been part of the technological revolution since the beginning of the 19th century, just like the advent of the Internet in the second half of the 20th century. The steam engine is part of the first technological revolution. Thanks to James Watts, transportation of people and goods was much faster and easier. The telegraph is part of the first technological revolution. The development of electricity has formed the basis for the electric telegraph. In 1832 Samuel Morse succeeded in developing the first stable and straightforward electrical messaging system, and in the following year received a patent for the invention.

The first real electric telegraph connected London and Birmingham and was built in 1838. The first operational amplifier to match its name was created by electronic tubing and built-in Bell's laboratories, United States, during 1941. This is a technology that we connect to backlinks and is part of another technological revolution. The invention of hydrogen, invented by the English physicist Henry Cavendish in 1767, solved the question of balloon filling. After many attempts by French physicist Jacques Charles, using a new invention to dissolve the rubber, he constructed a 380 m3 balloon with a bulletproof, hydrogen-filled shell that had a gas vent. The first steamboat to make a profit on sailing was built in 1807 (and patented in 1809) by the American Robert Fulton. However, the new boats were built even before the end of the 18th century.
