In your own words.<br><br> Why is it important to the business to motivate employees?..

Alexeev081 [22]

This is mainly opinionated, and since I'm young I may be wrong.

I say it's good to motivate them because then they will do a better job at their task and will make you seem like a good boss/person, especially if it's a decent pay that will keep them being able to live. With the motivation, they might even remember more things (Such as: If you work at a gas station, you remember to upsell people when a deal is going on, whereas unmotivated people forget or just don't want to do it and be lazy). It's the same effect of giving a kid a piece of candy for being good, doing chores, or getting a harder question right.

Bond A and Bond B both have 16 years to maturity and a face value of $1,000. Bond A has a 2.50% coupon while Bond B has a 5.5% c

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Bond's A price will decrease by 27.09%

Bond's B price will decrease by 24.25%

Explanation:

Bond's A current price: should be 1,000, since he market price = coupon rate

Bond's B current price: using an excel spreadsheet we can calculate the net resent value: =NPV(2.5%,55... fifteen times,1055) = $1,391.65

If the market rate increases to 5%

Bond's A current price: using an excel spreadsheet we can calculate the net resent value: =NPV(5%,25... fifteen times,1025) = $729.06

Bond's B current price: using an excel spreadsheet we can calculate the net resent value: =NPV(5%,55... fifteen times,1055) = $1,054.19

Bond's A price will decrease by: [($729.06 - $1,000) / $1,000] x 100 = -27.09%

Bond's B price will decrease by: [($1,054.19 - $1,391.65) / $1,391.65] x 100 = -24.25%

Completed Per Day

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The correct option is A, Samantha weed and Adam will rake because these are the goods each has a comparative advantage in.

Explanation:

The opportunity formula comes handy in this case, which is given below:

opportunity cost formula=what one sacrifices/what one gains

If Samantha were to weed flower beds, opportunity cost is computed thus:

Opportunity cost of Samantha weeding flower beds=8/4= 2 bags of leaves raked

The opportunity of Adam weeding flower beds=25/5 =5 bags of leaves raked.

In a nutshell ,if Samantha weeds flowers they would lose 2 bags of leaves raked while if Adam were to do so same, they would lose 5 bags of leaves raked, conclusively Samantha should weed flower beds since she has lower opportunity, higher comparative advantage

Twenty years ago, you began investing $250 a month. because your investments earned an average of 8 percent a year, your investm

DaniilM [7]

You invest $250/mo. over 12 months that equals $3,000 invested per year.
$250*12=$3,000/per year invested
$3,000 per year for 20 years equals $60,000 invested.
$3,000*20=$60,000 invested
8% of $60,000 is $4,800/per year.
0.08*$60,000=$4,800
$4,800 per year for 20 years equals $96,000 dollars earned on investments over 20 years.
