Answer:

Largest possible total contribution margin = $127,800

Explanation:

<em>Whenever a company is faced with a limiting factor i.e a resource in short supply, the company should allocate the resource to the product with he highest contribution per unit of the scare resource</em>

The highest contribution from the 4,200 machine hours could be determined as follows:

Step 1 : Contribution per hour

Contribution per machine hour = contribution per unit/ machine hour

                                                Product L         Product C

                                                      $                             $

Contribution                               24                           18      

Machine hour                             3                              2

Contribution per hour             8/ hr                           9/hr

Ranking                                       2nd                         1st

Product C would be produced using the entire machine hours. Doing so would generate the highest contribution possible.

Contribution = contribution per hour ×   machine hours

                     =       9 ×  14,200 = $127,800

Largest possible total contribution margin = $127,800

The relationship between an employer and an employee can be thought of in terms of a(n) __________, a description of what an emp
myrzilka [38]

The answer is psychological contract.

A broken psychological contract may occur when an employee believes that working extra would be naturally rewarded. This, however, may not be business policy. If the person is salaried, they may not be compensated for the extra hours worked.

Daily acts and remarks made in the workplace, as well as how they are interpreted by all parties involved, have an impact on the contract.

`

In other words, it is a promise developed via regular workplace encounters in which the organization learns what is expected of each employee.

Psychological contracts evolve and adapt to the organizational working culture over time. However, they are generally difficult to change and can differ across individual party members and whole organizations.

Discuss whether or not consumers benefit more from a market economic system or a mixed economic system. *
storchak [24]

Answer:

compared to a mixed economy, a market economy tends to benefit the consumers.

This is mainly because the government intervention and restrictions are minimum in a market economy, compared to a mixed economy in which the government plays a major part as an economic agent and a regulator.

A free market system's main aim is to enhance  the competitions and the freedom of choice for the consumers.

However, in the real world scenarios, pure free market systems are difficult to be seen and most of the time, the economies are Mixed economies.

Even in USA's economy 40% of the economy consists of the government agencies and activities.

This is mainly due to the economic malpractices by the producers and corporations.
