Answer:

The correct answer is:

executive salaries, utilities and insurance (C.)

Explanation:

Indirect costs are  costs that are not directly attributable objectively to a good, project, facility or service. Indirect costs are either fixed or variable. Fixed indirect costs are costs that do not change as the units/volumes of production  change, while variable indirect costs are costs that change with change in production units. Indirect cost can also be classified as either recurring or fixed. Recurring indirect costs are those that are repeated in nature, example is salaries of laborers, while fixed indirect can be cost of transportation. In this example, executive salaries, utilities and insurance are not directly attributable to a specific project at hand; the executives do not partake in the project hands-on, insurance and utilities such as electricity rent are not project-specific and it is financially infeasible to do so.

On the other hand, direct costs are costs that are directly attributable to the object, and it is financially feasible to do so, hence travel cost, labor, consultant and subcontractors costs, and material costs are all directly linked to the project (object).

Can an individual's financial situation change his or her views of what is
lesantik [10]
Yes. Once someone is in a difficult financial situation, they may have to give up some wants and desires in place of things they need. If money is tight, they should rather use what money they have to pay pills and buy food, and not purchase items they want like toys or videogames. When faced with a bad financial situation, an individual is forced to separate what they believe is a want and a need, and choose between the two.

It is estimated that firms lose ___________ annually in productivity, absenteeism, and employee turnover due to caring for aging
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

$11 billion annually.

Explanation:

Firms carried out assessments based on their daily activities as well as employee assessment.

Employees in firms are assessed based on their productivity level, rate at which they are absent from work as well as their turnover rate in the firm.

Low productivity can be defined as a decrease in the production capacity of a firm due to the inefficiency of workers.

Absenteeism can be defined as when a person is not present at work. This may be due to genuine or deliberate reasons.

Employee turnover can be defined as the number of employees who leave a firm and are replaced with new employees.

Low productivity, consistent absenteeism and employee turnover rates are said to cause firms to lose a lot of money due to:

a. Payment of salary for absent workers

b. Having to find replacement for absent staffs.

c. Low productivity due to lack of or absent staffs.

It is estimated that firms lose $11 billion annually in productivity, absenteeism, and employee turnover due to caring for aging parents.
