Answer:

Productivity Growth = 6.1%

Explanation:

Productivity Growth = Current Productivity - Previous Productivity/ Previous Productivity

Productivity Growth = 35-33/33=2/33= 0.0606 or 0.061*100= 6.1%

Productivity Ratio =  Output/ Input

Labor Productivity=  No of Units/ No of Employees

A preferable approach to productivity measurement is to record multiple physical measures that capture the most important determinants of a company's productivity.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Bond interest expense = $2,290

so correct option is b. $2,290

Explanation:

given data

Bond issued = $50,000

Interest rate  = 10%

interest semi-annually = 5%

time period = 5 year

to find out

amount of bond interest expense

solution

we get first Cash interest payment that is here

Cash interest payment = $50,000 × 5%

Cash interest payment = $2,500     ....................1

and Bond premium will be

Bond premium = $52,100 – $50,000

Bond premium = $2,100      .......................2

we know interest paid semi annually so time period will be  = 10

so Amortization of bond premium will be here as

Amortization of bond premium = \frac{2100}{10}

Amortization of bond premium = $210      .................3

so  Bond interest expense will be calculate as

Bond interest expense = Cash interest payment - Amortization of bond premium     .......................4

put here value

Bond interest expense = $2,500 - $210

Bond interest expense = $2,290

so correct option is b. $2,290

McDonald's is an excellent example of a firm that simultaneously employs both a product-differentiation and a cost-leadership st
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

Product differentiation is a competitive strategy that aims to make the consumer perceive the good or service offered by a company differently from those of the competition.

The cost leadership strategy is to find and maintain a low cost position compared to the competition, this will allow the company to obtain higher returns than the industry average.

There is a relationship between the cost leadership strategy and the possession of a high market share, this is because having a high market share allows the appearance of economies of scale and economies of experience, both contribute to reducing unit costs.
