Answer:

  • a. Population proportion = 0.40
  • b. Sample proportion = 0.35

Explanation:

Question wants to know the population proportion and the sample proportion.

a. Population proportion:

The population in this case is the U.S. workers employed as purchasing managers. The proportion that we are interested in is the 40% that are female.

Population proportion is therefore 0.40.

b. The sample proportion uses the sample details not the population details:

= Number of females employed as Purchasing managers in sample / Number of Purchasing managers in sample

= 70 / 200

= 0.35

Sophie [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (B).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Total cost = $8,600

Total units = 400 Units

Direct labor hour per unit = 5

Variable cost = $1.50

So, we can calculate the fixed cost by using following formula:

Fixed cost = Total cost - Total Direct labor cost

Where, Total direct labor cost = $1.50 × 5 × 400 = $3,000

By putting the value in the formula, we get

Fixed cost = $8,600 - $3,000

= $5,600

What piece of U.S legislation acts as the primary authority on collective bargaining
kramer
The main body of law governing collective bargaining is the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). It is also referred to as the Wagner Act. It explicitly grants employees the right to collectively bargain and join trade unions. The NLRA was originally enacted by Congress in 1935 under its power to regulate interstate commerce under the Commerce Clause in Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution. It applies to most private non-agricultural employees and employers engaged in some aspect of interstate commerce. Decisions and regulations of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which was established by the NLRA, greatly supplement and define the provisions of the act.

The NLRA establishes procedures for the selection of a labor organization to represent a unit of employees in collective bargaining. The act prohibits employers from interfering with this selection. The NLRA requires the employer to bargain with the appointed representative of its employees. It does not require either side to agree to a proposal or make concessions but does establish procedural guidelines on good faith bargaining. Proposals which would violate the NLRA or other laws may not be subject to collective bargaining. The NLRA also establishes regulations on what tactics (e.g. strikes, lock-outs, picketing) each side may employ to further their bargaining objectives.

State laws further regulate collective bargaining and make collective agreements enforceable under state law. They may also provide guidelines for those employers and employees not covered by the NLRA, such as agricultural laborers.
