Answer:
1) B) I'll be sharing some special sales tips with you tomorrow that will make your job easier.
2) B) Your goal for this month is to sell 10% more lattes, and you will receive a reward if you reach it.
3) C) Two days off with pay
Explanation:
1) The <em>E->P expectancy</em> is related to the concept of investing effort into something that you know will lead to the desired performance. It is the part of the expectancy theory that is not related to rewards.
In this example. the goal (task) is to increase sales. The E->P expectancy is the probability that Ethan's efforts will result in the desired performance (increased sales). By giving sales tips to Ethan, he will get more self-esteem and know-how and believe that his effort will in fact result in the desired outcome.
Although this is an overlooked part of the expectancy theory sometimes, it is crucial. Despite the appeal of a particular reward, an employee may not get increased motivation if he/she thinks that the task itself cannot be completed.
2) The <em>P->O expectancy</em> is related to rewards, and it states that employees will get motivated if the desired performance will result in a reward. In this case, Emma's putting the goal (10% increased sales) in direct relation with a reward.
3) Since the Motivation Report states that Ethan is motivated by time off, two days off with pay is the most appealing reward for him. The money bonus is more appropriate for Jon, while a choice of work assignments is better for Blair.
Answer: That CPU capacity will double every 2 years.
Explanations:
Moore's law states that transistor capacity doubles in dense integrated circuits every two years, and the law has been true for over 50 years. Consequently, the semiconductor has used this law as a guide for product planning.
Because of nanotechnology, this law may remain valid for many more years.
However, because the cost of production has been increasing, the law is not expected to continue indefinitely.
Answer:
The answer will be A
Explanation:
As the social security contributions and benefits remain the same in proportion, personal and national income will remain the same.
As disposable income is defined as personal income-personal taxes, and the personal income taxes fall by 500 million (included in the contibutions), this would mean that the disposable income increases.
Answer:
Intrinsic value of the stock = $46.67
Explanation:
D1 = $7
Required return = 30%
Growth rate = 15%
Intrinsic value of the stock = D1 / (Required return - Growth rate)
Intrinsic value of the stock = $7/(0.3 - 0.15)
Intrinsic value of the stock = $7 / 0.15
Intrinsic value of the stock = $46.67
Answer:
Option (c) : $80,000
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
A B
Sales price $12 $22
Less: Variable cost $10 $10
Contribution per unit $2 $10
Time required in hours 0.25 0.50
Contribution per hour $8 $20
Rank 2 1
Company should produce only product B to maximize the contribution.
Total contribution = $20 × 4,000
= $80,000
