Answer: The options are given below:

A. a diversity-oriented employer

B. a wide span of control

C. the glass ceiling effect

D. the black swan effect

E. an affirmative action

The correct option is C. The Glass Ceiling Effect

Explanation: The glass ceiling is a term used in organizations, it is a metaphor that is used to refer to an invisible and artificial barrier that prevents women and minority groups from being promoted to top managerial and executive level positions within an organization.

The scenario presented above is a perfect example of the glass ceiling effect, this is because, though Brenda is qualified for the promotion, she is denied it regardless, because "that's just the way things are". As you can see, the reason for the denial of her promotion is not a professional issue, just a tradition to always suppress the advancement of certain categories of people.

Answer:

C) The glass ceiling effect

Explanation:

First of all, the glass ceiling effect is illegal and is prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. The glass ceiling effect refers to the resistance that exists in some private companies to let women or minorities advance in the company's hierarchy. Generally promotions favor white men and the careers of Brenda and others unfairly suffer due to this practice.

It was very common during the 1970s and 1980s in American corporations, but the Civil Rights Act of 1991 enabled employees to sue their employers and not just get hired back or receive lost wages. Since employees can sue now for much larger sums of money, things have gotten fairer.

Rudik [331]

Answer: $92,880

Explanation:

The Gross Profit can be calculated by simply removing the cost from the sales amount.

It is stated that the additional processing will yield 10,000 bags of Premium Green and 3,600 bags of Green Deluxe, which can be sold for $7.55 and $5.55 per bag.

Sales figure is therefore,

= 75,500 + 19,980

= $95,480

Subtracting the cost to get,

= 95,480 - 2,600

= $92,880

The total gross profit would is $92,880.

Suppose that students at Big University buy season football tickets at the beginning of the fall semester. Everyone expects that
Elena L [17]

Answer:

A) The current supply will shift to the left

Explanation:

The supply curve shifts to the left when the total quantity supplied decreases, which results in a price increase at any given quantity.

If everyone expects that the football team will have a great season, the quantity demanded for tickets will increase, which will increase their price. But the suppliers will also hold to their tickets until a day or two before the games to increase expectations and fans' anxieties. That way the price will increase even more, and they will make a higher profit.
