Answer:

the correct option is A) According to Levitt, Technology drives the world toward a converging commonalty.

Explanation:

Levitt's Thesis states that "a dominant force drives the world towards a converging commonality, allowing international businesses to become global by standardizing their product and service offering".

One of the main forces he identified was technology.

It has become very evident that Technology is an essential force that drives the modern form of business globalization because technology has helped overcome major barriers to trade in the international scene by introducing standardized processes and global quality assurance.  

It has also eliminated delays in information exchange, created a virtual market and ease of interaction between countries making international business processes cost effective and efficient.

Answer:

The best revision for the following sentence is:

B) We have identified a problem with our expense sheet, but we will solve it.

Explanation:

In e-mail, letters, messages, memos, and other business documents intended for a busy audience who appreciates getting the information they need quickly and easily, replacing a phrases with a word  in a formal tone, detracting from adding meaning: "we have identified" instead of: "I am sending" or "we need to inform you", keeping the sentence just as it is with certain rhythm and concise.

Otherwise in option 1. I am sending you this letter to inform you that we have experienced an unexpected surprise within our expense sheet, but we are positively certain we will solve it.

The sentence has a redundant pair:  "send" and "inform", it is “wordy,” and includes irrelevant “fillers” as "unexpected" that makes it lack of conciseness in the substantive information, not getting to the point promptly. I also includes passive voice which is not a grammatical error, but it often leads to using more words than necessary frustrating or confusing the audience; and it has prepositional phrases overuse: "that", within", "but" making this sentence clunky and unclear.

In option A) We need to inform you that we have experienced an unexpected surprise with our expense sheet, but we are midway to an end result.

The sentence has unnecessary modifiers: "unexpected" and "end", and passive voice again.

In option C) I am sending you this letter to inform you that we have a problem with our expense sheet, but we are positively certain we have a solution.

The sentence has unnecessary modifier: "positively".

Alameda Tile sells products to many people remodeling their homes and thinks that it could profitably offer courses on tile inst
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Alameda Tile

a. The enrollment to enable Alameda Tile to break even = 500 students.

b. To make an operating profit of $80,000, number of students

= 750 students

c. With projected enrollment for the year of 800 students:

1. Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($320 * 800) - $160,000

= $96,000

2. a) Operating Profit, if the tuition per student decreased by 10%.

New selling price = $720  which is $800 * (1 - 10%)

Variable cost             480

Contribution           $240

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($240 * 800) - $160,000

= $32,000

2. b) Operating Profit, if the tuition per student increased by 20%.

New selling price = $960  which is $800 * (1 + 20%)

Variable cost             480

Contribution           $480

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($480 * 800) - $160,000

= $224,000

3. a) Operating Profit, if variable costs per student decreased by 10%.

Selling price =         $800

Variable cost             432     $480 * (1 - 10%)

Contribution           $368

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($368 * 800) - $160,000

= $134,400

3. b) Operating Profit, if variable costs per student increased by 20%.

Selling price =         $800

Variable cost             576     $480 * (1 + 20%)

Contribution           $224

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($224 * 800) - $160,000

= $19,200

4. Operating profit, if fixed costs reduced by 10% and variable cost increased by 10%:

Selling price =         $800

Variable cost             528     $480 * (1 + 10%)

Contribution           $272

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($272 * 800) - $144,000 ($160,000 * (1 - 10%)

= $73,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Tentative Price and Cost Characteristics:

Tuition $ 800 per student

Variable costs (tiles, supplies, and so on) 480 per student

Fixed costs (advertising, salaries, and so on) 160,000 per year

Per unit       Tentative

Selling price = $800

Variable cost    480

Contribution  $320

b) Computation of break-even point:

To break-even with fixed cost of $160,000, sales unit will be equal to:

Fixed cost/Contribution per unit = $160,000/$320 = 500 students

c) Fixed cost + Target Profit /Contribution per unit:

= ($160,000 + $80,000)/$320

= $240,000/320

= 750 students

Economists generally argue that:
djverab [1.8K]

Answer: A. costs of moderate inflation are nearly zero whereas high inflation is quite costly.

Explanation:

Economists generally believe that moderate inflation is actually good for the economy as prices need to increase in a healthy manner overtime in order to drive consumption. This means that to them, the cost of moderate inflation is nearly zero.

This is a sharp contrast to high inflation which most economists generally believe to be costly as it reduces the savings of people as well as their real wages and welfare.
