Answer:

  • <u><em>D. It has both good and bad effects, but we can't always predict what those are.</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Explanation:

Of course,  ethics mandates that the target of science and <em>new technology </em>should always pursue the good for humans; nevertheless, since time immemorial man has developed technology to make war. Thus, definetely, the first statement <em>"A It always does good for human"</em> is false.

Some other negative effects of <em>new technology</em>, like cars and nuclear power, have been harmful to the environment, but you cannot tell that this has always been so. Technology has also been developed to help the environment. For instance, panels to use solar energy do not harm the environment and seek to reduce fuel burning to help the environment. Thus, option <em>B, "It always ends up doing harm to the environment"</em> is false too.

Some of the damage that new technology can produce are not predicted both because the technology is new and because it may be used with different goals to those it was developed. This explains why option <em>C, It has many bad effects</em>, is false, and option <em>D, "It has both good and bad effects, but we can't always predict what those are", </em>is true.

Answer:

The fixed costs per unit when 20,000 units are produced are $6.05 per unit.

Explanation:

Fixed costs per unit can be determined by using the following formula:

Fixed costs per unit = Total fixed costs/ number of units are produced

In a company, Total fixed costs do not depend on the level of activity (Fixed costs do not change).

In the company, Total fixed cost = $11 x 11,000 = $121,000

When 20,000 units are produced, Fixed costs per unit = $121,000/20,000 = $6.05 per unit.

Answer:

<em>Explained below !</em>

Explanation:

<em>The major cause for the failure of the product was</em> its absence of a product protocol that directly explains the way through which it will satisfy the customers needs and wants.

The company should have re-checked the product before it was globalized all over, the mistake that was made by the company stood up as a reason of the products failure.
