Answer:

a. continue with the project provided that the additional solar electricity is worth more than $10 million.

Explanation:

It is provided that after cost overruns of the project is $10 million, which can never be recovered, thus, it is a kind of sunk cost.

Sunk cost is the cost which is made previously, and now in no manner will affect the decision, as cannot be recovered.

Therefore, such cost is ignored.

Further provided additional cost will be $12 million, therefore, now the society shall make a rational choice whether to continue the project providing solar electricity of $10 million, as in case of amount of solar energy is $32 million or $22 million, then the choice is obvious to accept,

Rational choice will be for solar electricity worth $10 million.

Therefore, correct statement is

a. continue with the project provided that the additional solar electricity is worth more than $10 million.

Answer:

compromise

Explanation:

Compromise as a conflict resolution strategy is one that involves finding acceptable reasons such that all the parties involved in the conflict have their concerns satisfied partly.

The project manager saying "You both will have to give up something to solve this problem" means that both parties involved in the conflict will have to come to an agreement that suits or benefits both parties.

Cheers.

Accounts receivable in an existing business:
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": are rarely worth their face value.

Explanation:

Accounts receivables are notes issued to customers after selling them a product or rendering services on credit. The repayment term may vary from 30, 60 or 90 days. If an account receivable is not paid after that period it could be considered as an uncollectible account which implies the company will incur losses.

<em>Accounts receivable are hardly ever accepted at face value (real value of the moment of the purchase) because companies add the interest rate that is to be charged for the sale on the account.</em>
