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.

Consider a firm with a daily demand of 100​ units, a production rate per day of 500​ units, a setup cost of​ $200, and an annual
podryga [215]

Answer: 980

Explanation:

The number of units of inventory that the storage area must be able to​ hold will be calculated as:

Demand = 100 × 300 = 30000

Production rate per day = 500

Setup cost = $200

Annual holding cost = $10

We then use the economic order quantity formula to solve and the answer will be gotten as 1225

The maximum inventory will now be:

= EQQ × (1-d/p)

= 1225 × (1-100/500)

= 1225 × ( 1 - 0.2)

= 1225 × 0.8

= 980

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The statement is false. The largest component of GDP is private consumption, or simply: consumption.

Explanation:

Consumption includes all purchases of goods and services made by individuals and households except for the purchase of new houses (these are considered investments).

In the U.S., consumption accounts for around 70% of GDP. This is why some economists say that the U.S. is a consumer-based economy.
