Lease Plan Effectively Manages Diversity

Business
1 answer:
mylen [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Lease Plan

1) The trend in gender diversity that appears to be most supported by the outcomes of Lease Plan's program changes is:

Increases in seats on boards of directors—in Fortune 550 firms up to 16.6 percent in 2013 from only 9.6 percent in 1995.

2. Thomas's generic action options for managing diversity that is most illustrated in the case is:

include/exclude

3. Based on the information in the case, the barriers and challenges to managing diversity that were identified in the text that appear to have been present at Lease Plan were:

a. an unsupportive or hostile work environment

b. inaccurate stereotypes

Explanation:

Thomas's include and exclude generic action option emphasizes that more diverse employees should be employed in addition to minority-owned companies being used as vendors.  This option makes it possible for embracing and practicing workplace diversity.  It creates an open-minded and supportive workplace, encouraging the sharing of information and the integration of behavior to accept and value human differences, thereby overcoming stereotypes.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

33.33%

Explanation:

Let weight of T-bill be x, therefore weight of stock will be 1-x

Portfolio = Weight of stock*Beta of stock + Weight of T-bills*Beta of T-bills

1 = (1-x)*1.5 + x*0

1 = 1.5 - 1.5x

x = 0.5/1.5

x = 0.3333

x = 33.33%

Therefore, the percentage of the portfolio invested in treasury bills is 33.33%.

Harwood Company uses a job-order costing system. Overhead costs are applied to jobs on the basis of machine-hours. At the beginn
NNADVOKAT [17]

Under- or Over-Applied Manufacturing Overhead:

Under- or Over-Applied Manufacturing Overhead refers to the balance in the manufacturing overhead control account after the actual overhead costs that were incurred and the applied overhead for the period has been recorded

1 .The appleid overhead is the predetermined rate of $2.40 per machine hour multiplied by the actual number of machine hours (75,000), so it is $180,000.

The applied overhead is debited to work-in-process inventory and credited to the manufacturing overhead account.

2. The underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year is the difference between the actual and applied overhead. We can show it in the T-account like this:

3. The company estimated its total overhead cost to be $192,000 and its total machine hours to be 80,000. The actual overhead cost was $184,000 and the actual machine hours were 75,000. We can see that the main reason why the manufacturing overhead was underapplied was the fact that it worked fewer machine hours than anticipated with a proportional decrease in the manufacturing overhead costs incurred. This is normal because an element of manufacturing overhead is fixed.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

 export               import                net export  

1. increases         unchanged         increases

2. unchanged       increases             decreases

3.  unchanged       increases             decreases

4. unchanged       increases             decreases

5. increases         unchanged         increases

Explanation:

export would comprise of goods and services produced in the US that are been sold to foreign countries

Import would comprise of foreign produced goods and services that are been sold in the US

Net export would increase when export occurs and decrease when import occurs

Net export = exports – imports

When the French historian visits the US museum and the European family visits Disney,  they are enjoying US services, thus export increases and net export increases

The purchase of books from Cambridge in UK, Panasonic camera and the visit to Japan constitutes import. These increases import and reduces net export

You are the curator of a museum. The museum is running short of funds, so you decide to increase revenue. What should you do to
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer and explanation:

Demand elasticity measures the changes in quantity demanded as the result of changes in price. Demand elasticity is calculated by dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the percentage change in price. If the result is equal or higher than one (1) the product is <em>elastic </em>but if the result is lower than 1 the product is <em>inelastic</em>.

In the case, <em>as the elasticity of demand of the museum ticket is 0.45 it means the museum tickets is inelastic. This scenario implies that in front of changes of price the quantity demanded will not change. Thus, as a curator of the museum you should </em><u><em>increase the museum ticket price to increase revenue</em></u><em>.</em>
