Imagine that to preserve the traditional way of life in small fishing villages, a government decides to impose a price floor tha
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

As a result of the price floor, price would increase. As a result, quantity demanded will decrease and the quantity supplied would increase.

Supply would exceed demand and as a result there would be an excess supply of fish.  

As an alternative to the price floor, the government can subsidise the cost of fishing. This would reduce the cost of producing fish

Why do employees who participate in planning change efforts tend to have more positive opinions about the change
dusya [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:

a) They have the opportunity to reject the proposed change.

b) They will have the opportunity to know more than others about the change.

c) They will be able to convince customers the change was the right thing to do.

d) They will feel a sense of ownership of planned change and are more likely to be on board.  

And the correct answer is the option D: They will feel a sense of ownership of planned change and are more likely to be on board.

Explanation:

To begin with, it will be more acceptable for an employee of a company or a member of a group to agree with a change if that person was involved in the planning of the change. That means that he will feel that he is part of the solution and therefore part of the team because his ideas were listened and maybe he contributed with something. That is why that members who participate in the planning of a change will always be more positive about the final outcome due to the fact that they were there during the process of deciding that outcome and that will make them feel integrity related to the work and to the team as well.

Chik’s Chickens has accounts receivable of $6,333. Sales for the year were $9,800. What is its average collection period?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The answer is 235 days

Explanation:

Average collection period can also be called Days' outstanding period. And it is the number of days it takes a business to collect its money or receivables from the goods or services sold on credit.

Days' reveivables period or Average collection period = 365 days / reveivables turnover.

Receivables turnover = Sales/ average receivable

$9,800/$6,333

= 1.55

Average collection period=

365 days/1.55

=235 days
