Answer:

0.5% increase

Explanation:

the price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price. It measures how the quantity demanded changes in response to a 1% increase in price.

The price elasticity of supply (PES) = % change in quantity supplied / % change in price. It measures how the quantity supplied changes in response to a 1% increase in price.

In this case the demand increases, which should result from a decrease in price, but in order to satisfy the demand, the supply must increase and to do so, it will increase only by 1 / (1 + 1) = 1/2 of the original change in quantity demanded = 0.5%

<span>Foreign firms should seek this sorts of alliances, because making them is a good way to obtain knowledge of local markets; contrast this to a foreign firm attempting to start up a branch on their own, perhaps in the form of a greenfield venture. They would potentially have to figure out local market conditions from scratch, whereas a local company would potentially have years of successful experience and knowledge already at their fingertips.</span>

Six sigma is a philosophy and set of methods companies use to eliminate defects in their products and processes<span>. It also seeks to reduce variation in the processes that lead to product defects. It measures quality, process for Continuous Improvement and enabler for culture change so culturally six sigma means companies must learn how to be nearly flawless in executing key processes and achieving business imperatives. Quantitatively six sigma means the average process generates no more than 3.4 defects per million. Therefore, based on the figures given above the defects per million opportunities (DPMO) is 15, 333 and the defective rate us 1.533% and the passed rate is 98.467%.</span>

A company had average total assets of $955,000. Its gross sales were $1,108,000 and its net sales were $940,000. The company's t
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

It is 0.98

Explanation:

Total Assets Turnover Ratio(TATR) =   <u>   Net Sales                </u>      

                                                            Average Total Assets

Net Assets =Gross Sales-Trade discounts-Sales tax-Sales return

TATR = 940,000/955,000 = 0.98 times

It is the ratio of a company's net sales to its average assets employed.

It is a ratio that tells how efficient the company is using its assets to generate its revenue.

The drawback of this ratio is that, if the divisional manager performance is based on this, it may sometimes leads to short-term view of performance. This  may then encourage dysfunctional behaviour which may include refusal to replace an old assets with lower based value which when replace may reduce this ratio because of the higher based value of the new assets while sales still remain the same

Building Restoration, Inc. (BRI), enters into a contract to refurbish an old train depot for CasualDining, Inc., to open as Eat
maksim [4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Substancial performance is a terminology used in contract law. It actually means the degree of performance of a contract work which is not completely or fully finished,but is so nearly equivalent that it would be unfair to deny the contractor the payment agreed upon in the contract. The owner has a right to recover whatever damages he has incurred by reason of the contractor's failure to render full and complete performance.

Building Restoration must have at least substantially performed the it's side of a bargain before they can call on the CasualDining,Inc to perform the their side of the bargain e.g. by paying an agreed amount. What actually constitute substantial performance depends on the circumstances.

A 37-year old individual purchases a life insurance policy of $95,000 for an annual payment of $250. based on a insurance report
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:Expected value = - 94661.45

Explanation:

The Policy pay out is $95000 ,if a client is in life threatening accident insurance company will loose $95000, if the client is not in a life threatening accident the insurance company will gain $250

Probability (Client is in a threatening accident) = 0.999063

Probability (not in a life threatening accident)= 1 - 0.999063 = 0000937

Insurance Premium = $250

Insurance Payout = $95000

expected value = 0.999063 x (- (95000 - 250)) + 0.000937 x (250)

expected value = 0.999063 x (-94750) + 0.000937 x (250)

expected value = - 94661.21925 + 0.23425 = - 94661.44675

expected value = - 94661.45
