Answer:

A. actually reduces the percentage of union membership.

Explanation:

Remember, the term privatizaton simply refers to a transfer of ownership of public sectors like an energy company owned by the government to private individuals.

We can say this because Public sector jobs are often seen as less profit-oriented, but as welfare focused jobs. Thus, in most economies when privatization occurs, management tends to reduce the percentage of union membership by employing certain tactics.

Operating Leverage Beck Inc. and Bryant Inc. have the following operating data: Beck Inc. Bryant Inc. Sales $1,250,000 $2,000,00

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

1. a. For Beck Inc = $5

b. For Bryant Inc. = 2.5

2. For Beck Inc = $100,000

For Bryant Inc. = $150,000

Explanation:

The computation of given question is shown below:-

a. Operating leverage = Contribution ÷ Net income

For Beck Inc

= $500,000 ÷ $100,000

= $5

For Bryant Inc.

= $750,000 ÷ $300,000

= $2.5

2. Operating income = Current Earning before interest and tax × Percentage increase in profit

For computing the operating income first we need to compute the increase in profit.

Increase in profit = Operating leverage × Percentage

For Beck Inc. = $5 × 20%

= 100%

now we put into formula

= $1,00,000 × 100.00%

= $100,000

For Bryant Inc. = $2.5 × 20%

= 50%

now we put into formula

= $3,00,000 × 50%

= $150,000

The average temperature in san francisco, california, for december, january, and february is 11°c (52°f). during the same three-

IRINA_888 [86]

Heating Degree Days

In comparison to San Francisco, Richmond, Virginia has a higher high temperature and a lower low temperature. And San Francisco has a more steadily averaged temperature for both highs and lows throughout the year, less extreme variation.

And although the average winter temperatures discussed in the question is significantly lower for Richmond, the issue with having similar amounts of heating degree days, relates to the outside air temperature falling below 65 degree Fahrenheit.

A heating degree day corresponds to the time when it is necessary to heat a building due to the outside air temperature falling below this threshold - the level or number of 65 degrees.

Though seasonal differences exist for both San Francisco and Richmond, as presented by the winter average differences, both of these cities fall below the 65 degree Fahrenheit level or Heating Degree Days at a similar rate, but San Francisco is not as much. Both cities transition to above this temperature during the warmer months, San Francisco by a smaller amount than Richmond, but like Richmond, still above the 65 degree level.
