Explanation:
Personally, I believe that GM is an extremely spoiled child that refuses to assume responsibility for its continuous and never ending mistakes. GM has either filed for bankruptcy or threatened to do so twice in the last 30 years or so, and every time the US government has to bail them out. But GM keeps doing things wrong.
It doesn't matter if you like their cars or not, GM is terribly managed. No other company in US history has received so much financial aid from the government and continued to lose money and work inefficiently. The problem is that whenever things go wrong, stockholders lose their money but the executives keep getting tens of millions of dollars. If a company is managed in such a disastrous way, their top management shouldn't get paid that much.
A car factory costs a lot of money, and not using it efficiently is outrageous considering GM's history. If they had never received a cent from the government, then its only their problem. But the government lost $11.2 billion on GM's last bailout. During the 1980s GM lobbied fro the government to impose import quotas on Japanese cars because they were better cars and GM couldn't compete against them. So whenever they do things wrong, big brother has to help them. During the last couple of years GM had to sell most of its foreign operations in order to get cash, and you generally do not make money by selling your assets.
Answer:
The answer is: $100,000
Explanation:
Under LIFO (last in, first out) costing method, we use the oldest costs are used to determine the ending inventory:
We were given the following data:
- Jan. 1: 8,000 purchased at $11 per unit
- June 19: 13,000 purchased at $12 per unit
- Nov. 8: 5,000 purchased at $13 per unit
If the ending inventory had 9,000 units, then its total cost is:
Ending inventory = (8,000 units x $11 per unit) + (1,000 units x $12 per unit)
Ending inventory = $88,000 + $12,000 = $100,000
Answer: eventually rise and fall to match upward or downward changes in the price level.
Explanation:
Long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve simply shows the long-term output for a country. In the long-run, it should be noted that the aggregate supply curve is vertical, which shows that the changes in the aggregate demand will only result in a temporary change with regards to the total output of the economy.
The aggregate supply curve of an economy assumes that the wages and other resource prices eventually rise and fall to match upward or downward changes in the price level.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
Answer:
b. Dogs
Explanation:
The BCG matrix is used to analyse the performance of an organization's product in terms of the market growth and market share. Going by the BCG matrix, there are 4 types of products based on the measurement criteria mentioned earlier. These are Star, Cash cow, Question mark and Dogs.
Stars are high performers with high market growth and high market share. Cash cows have high market share but low market growth. Question marks are products with high market growth but low market share. Dogs are the poor performing products with low market share and low growth rate. Hence the division as identified by General Motors for closure is in the division of Dogs.
Option b
