The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following,

The human resource functions that are likely to be affected by this change are Resource Management, Personal Data Management, Training, and Performance Management.

Human Resource Management helps the organization carry out this change successfully, explaining how these modifications can benefit the employees and the entire organization. HR has to use the proper means of internal communication to explain in advance the kinds of oof changes that are coming. This will prevent fear and anxiety, and eliminate rumors about the situation of the employees in the organization.

HR has to be careful in confirming that nobody is going to be fired by the arrival of new technologies. Then, HR has to explain in detail the many benefits in planning, scheduling, organizing, inventory, and many other benefits for each department. If employees do not feel threatened by this new technology they would welcome changes that allow them to do their work more productively.

R= 3.74%

Nominal rate = 3.74%*2 = 7.49%

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

$25,400

Explanation:

Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.

The movement in the retained earnings balance may be expressed as

Opening balance + net income - cash dividend paid = closing retained earnings balance

Cash dividend declared - Cash dividend paid =  Cash dividend payable

$49,000 - Cash dividend paid = $23,600

Cash dividend paid = $49,000 - $23,600

= $25,400
