Answer:

Depreciation & amortization = $1 million

Explanation:

The EBITDA is the earning of the company before interest, tax and depreciation and amortization deduction.

To calculate the Net Income from EBITDA, we subtract the charges for depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes.

Thus, net income is,

Net income = EBITDA - Depreciation & amortization - Interest - Tax

The tax is deducted from EBT which is earnings before tax. It is calculated by deducting the depreciation & amortization and interest from EBITDA. Thus, after deducting tax from EBT, we get net income. We can say that if tax is 40% it means that tax is 40% of EBT and net income is the remaining 60% of EBT.

Thus, if 60% of EBT is 1.5 million, then total EBT is,

EBT = 1.5 / 0.6  = $2.5 million

So, tax is = 2.5 * 0.4 = $1 million

Plugging in the values available in the net income formula,

1.5 = 5.5 - Depreciation & amortization - 2 - 1

1.5 + Depreciation & amortization  =  5.5 - 3

Depreciation & amortization = 2.5 - 1.5

Depreciation & amortization = $1 million

Answer:

The question lacks answers:

<em>a. overcoming reservations </em>

<em>b. generating and qualifying leads </em>

<em>c. the presentation </em>

<em>d. the preapproach </em>

<em>e. follow-up</em>

The answer is: a. overcoming reservations

The answer can be formulated as - handling objections

Explanation:

The sales presentation process usually follows the sequence:

<em>generating and qualifying leads  -> the preapproach  -> the presentation  -> overcoming reservations  -> closing -> follow-up</em>

The part of overcoming reservations is one of the most critical parts of the sales process, as it includes the addressing of the potential concerns a lead may have. This is the part when most salespeople end the whole process, as they are mostly not prepared to argument their sales pitch.

In this example, Patrick is confident and persistent in his efforts to emphasize the benefits of the system, even though the client expressed some concern about it. Patrick successfully overcame the client's reservations by explaining the benefits further.

Wage contracts, efficiency wages, and the minimum wage are explanations for why:
hjlf

Answer:

B. Wages tend to be inflexible downward

Explanation:

Wages are flexible if they react to changes in demand and supply. Profitability determines demand and supply level for wages.  Flexibility in wages means that If the economy is performing well, companies should compensate their employees better.

Wage inflexibility implies that wages will not respond to changes in demand and supply. Wages do not rise or fall if the marginal productivity of labor increases or decreases.  Wage contracts are agreements that tend to set compensation for workers regardless of their output.  Minimum wage is a regulatory requirement that demands workers not to be paid below a set rate. Wage efficiency recommends higher than market rate compensation to motivate productivity.

The three factors do not advocate for wages to be pegged on productivity.
