Answer:
The answer is: She used the justice approach, realizing that the greater good is served because people learn to help each other in their own interest.
Explanation:
Justice approach: an ethical decision is a decision that distributes benefits and costs (or punishments) among those involved in a fair, equitable, and impartial way.
Paula used this approach because she believed the agents had acted improperly and that they were harming the US Secret Service.
I consider any organization a team, so in order for it to work well its members must be respected both by their peers and by the other teams´ members. If you consider the various types of activities this specific agency carries out, other not so friendly "teams" (other secret services or even terrorists) could use this type of information to damage or compromise those activities. So the well being of all the country was being jeopardized by a group of bad agents.
Answer:
Sell the parts without any processing because the profit is higher ($20,000 vs $15,000)
Explanation:
they have two options:
- option A, sell the parts as they are and make $20,000 in profits (= $120,000 - $100,000).
- option B, further process the parts by spending $75,000 and sell them for $190,000, and make only $15,000 in profits (= $190,000 - $100,000 - $75,000).
The best option is A, to sell the parts without any processing because the profit is higher and they do not have to spend more money.
Answer: The correct answer is "b. production and distribution processes becoming obsolete.".
Explanation: The typical risks of a cost leadership strategy include production and distribution processes becoming obsolete because to maintain cost leadership, the production and distribution processes must always be in constant observation to modify if necessary in order to maintain competitiveness and not remain stuck attached to a production and distribution model that as a consequence of innovations in the competition may become obsolete.
Answer:
Task a:
The answer is $24,500.
Task b:
The answer is 17%
Explanation:
<h2>Task a:</h2><h3>What is the maximum amount of new capital that can be raised at the LOWEST component cost of EQUITY?</h3><h3>Solution:</h3>
We already know the following:
Projected net income = $21,000
Payout ratio = 30%
Retention ratio = 70%
Debt share = 40%
Equity share = 60%
Maximum amount of capital to be raised at the lowest component cost of equity = Projected net income ×
= $21,000 × 
= $24,500
<h3>Answer:</h3>
The maximum amount of new capital that can be raised at the lowest component of equity is $24,500.
<h2>Task b:</h2><h3>What is the component cost of equity by selling new common stock?</h3><h3>Solution:</h3>
k(e) (component cost of external equity) = [Dividend (D0)(1 + growth) / stock price(1 - flotation cost)] + growth
Formula:
k(e) = 
+ 0.05
Where
Do = $2.00
G = 0.05
P = $21/88
= ($2.00(1 + 0.05) / $21.88(1-.20)) + 0.05
= ($2.10/$21.88(1-.20)) + 0.05
= ($2.10/$21.88(0.80) + 0.05
= 0.17 or 17%
<h3>Answer: </h3>
The component cost of equity by selling new common stock = 17%
477,202 are the projected sales after year 10.
