Answer:

C. Fixed Interval

Explanation:

"Fixed Interval" is a type of <em>Reinforcement Schedule. </em>The "reward" in the situation above is the<em> salary given to the employees</em> during Wednesdays. As noticed, their productivity increases over the week, with the peak on Wednesday.  

The<u> "peak" of productivity</u> is the<u> exhibited behavior during pay day.</u> They try to work hard in order to receive a salary. <em>They become more inspired to work during the salary day.</em> It is followed by<em> </em><em>less productivity on Thursdays</em><em> </em>because they have already been rewarded.

Such reinforcement schedule is called the "fixed interval." This also means that their productivity will not increase if they will not be paid.

So, this explains the answer.

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

(A) 6%

(B) 20

Explanation:

The market capitalization rate for Admiral motors is 8%

= 8/100

= 0.08

The expected ROE is 10%

= 10/100

= 0.1

The expected EPS is $5

The Plowback ratio is 60%

= 60/100

= 0.6

(A) The growth rate can be calculated as follows

= Plowback ratio × ROE

= 0.6 × 0.1

= 0.06×100

= 6%

Hence the growth rate is 6%

(B) The P/E ratio can be calculated as follows

= 1-0.6/0.08-0.06

= 0.4/0.02

= 20

Hence the P/E ratio is 20
