Answer:

c) in the short run, a country can import more goods and services than it exports, but in the long run exports pay for imports.

Explanation:

In the short run when a country imports more goods than it exports it will have a balance of trade deficit. All nations are striving for balance of trade ( exports will pay for imports). Over time as trade balances the exports will meet up with imports.

STatiana [176]

leadershipCorrect/Complete Question:

Your company's HR director is a believer in trait theories of leadership. He believes that he can differentiate leaders from nonleaders by focusing on personal qualities and characteristics. The HR director plans to promote Lawrence, a highly extraverted manager with a great deal of ambition and energy to the position of VP, Manufacturing. He asks for your expertise in helping him to apply trait theory to leadership selection within your company. The director believes that because of his innate characteristics, Lawrence will be highly effective at helping the company achieve its production goals. You advise the director against basing his decision purely on traits because ________.

A) research has identified emotional stability as the strongest predictor of leadership effectiveness

B) studies have found that the Big Five traits are difficult to identify in leaders

C) studies have shown that traits are poor predictors of leadership effectiveness

D) research has found that conscientiousness is a better predictor of effectiveness than extraversion

E) research has shown that effective managers are often unlikely to become effective leaders

Answer:

C, studies have shown that traits are poor predictors of leadership effectiveness

Explanation:

As much as traits can help predict leaders from non leaders, it is not adequate to distinguish the effectiveness or lack of it as a leader.

In the case of the above question, it is proper to advise the HR against making Lawrence a VP for manufacturing becase just his traits won't be enough to efficiently discharge his duties in that role.

Cheers. i hope this helps

A sophisticated  sales test might involve manipulating an advertising variable like schedule or copy through cable systems, and observing the affects on purchasing at local supermarkets.

What is advertising variable?

  • Although advertising expenditures can change greatly, they are not regarded as variable costs.
  • Instead, marketing costs are fixed, meaning they don't change based on how many goods or services you offer to customers.

Why is marketing considered a variable cost?

  • Businesses may set aside a specific amount for advertising within their fixed marketing budget, despite having a fixed budget for marketing.
  • Advertising is therefore a current expense rather than a fixed one. Therefore, whether it be print or online, businesses must spend money on advertising.

You bought four put options (each on 100 shares) on EZ stock with an exercise price of $35 per share and an option price of $1.3
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

-$ 540

Explanation:

Put Option - provides right to sell share at exercise price on expiry.

As it is an Right not Obligation, Thus, buyer will exercise the right only if he is gaining at expiry and he will gain only if exercise price is higher than spot price at expiry

In this case Exercise Price ($ 35) is lower than the spot price ( $ 36.25) at expiry. Thus he will not execrise the option.

He will lose all what he spend in buying option that is $ 1.35 per share

Thus,

Net profit or loss on this investment = 4 Options * 100 Shares each * Loss of $ 1.35 per Share

Net profit or loss on this investment = 4 * 100 * (-1.35)

Net profit or loss on this investment = -$ 540

Assume you are the new Product Manager in our Amazon Prime business and are in charge of Pricing. The VP would like to lower the
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Provided in Explanation

Explanation:

This is a very general question however I’ll try to answer it to the best of my knowledge.

If I use my own assumptions then these will be the Projections:

Selling Price         $79.99  Selling Price         $69.99

Cost of Sales/unit $40.00  Cost of Sales/unit $40.00

Expenses/unit $15.00  Expenses/unit $15.00

   

Demand @ $79.99 1000 Demand @ $69.99 1200

   

Sales         $79,990.00  Sales         $83,988.00

Cost of Sales $40,000.00  Cost of Sales $48,000.00

Expenses $15,000.00  Expenses $18,000.00

Profit        $24,990.00        Profit         $17,988.00

The final decision however relies on the Price Elasticity of the Product. If the Product is Price elastic then lowering the Price will lead to a significant rise in Demand. However if the Product is Price inelastic then lowering the Price will not lead to a significant rise in Demand and thus profit margins will be lowered. If the Product is Price inelastic then it is better to increase prices in order to gain more profits. In the case of Unit Elasticity the change in Demand will be at the same proportion as price change so it won’t be of any use to change the Price.
