Midwest Sales, Inc. has a stated written policy by which all similarly situated employees are to be paid the same salary. John D

oe (a male), a Senior Executive Vice President for Sales and Marketing for Midwest’s ZONE A, is paid $100,000 a year by Midwest. Jane Roe (a female), a Senior Executive Vice President for Sales and Marketing for Midwest’s ZONE B, is paid $95,000 a year by Midwest. Jane has worked for Midwest two years longer than John.

Answer:

b) The pay difference is unlawful, unless Midwest can establish some significant difference between Zone A and Zone B.

Explanation:

The equal Pay Act of 1963 states that men and women should earn the same salary for similar jobs, i.e. there should be no distinction of gender when establishing a person's salary.

The exception to this rule would be that the work carried out in Zone A is much more demanding, challenging, difficult, important or relevant than the work carried out in Zone B. E.g. Zone A represents 75% of total revenue, or includes very large cities.

<span>Normally if one tecnician takes 475 seconds to assemble one air rule smartphone. Then it would take. 20 technicians X secs to do the same So It would take 20 tecnicians X secs = (20 * 475) / 1 = 9500 secs. I. e it takes 20 technicians 9500 secs to manufacture a smartphone. But airrules uses 20 technicians to manufacture the same phone in only 30 secs. So its efficiency would be: Number of secs it takes the 20 techician to manufacture the phone * efficiency = Normal of hours it would usually take 20 techician to manufacture the phone. So we have 30 * X = 9500 X = 9500/30 = 316.777. So they are 316.667 times as efficient.</span>

a. Computation of Effective Interest Rate

Future Value = Present Value * (1 + r)^n

Future Value = $1460000

Present Value = $105

n = Number of Years = 116 Years

Future Value = Present Value * (1 + r)^n

1460000 = 105 * (1 + r)^116

13904.76 = (1 + r)^116

1.0857 = 1 + r

Effective Interest Rate = 8.57%

b.Future Value in the year 2050

Future Value = Present Value * (1 + r)^n

Present Value = $1460000

n = Number of Years = 35 Years

Future Value = Present Value * (1 + r)^n

Future Value = 1460000 * (1 + 0.0857)^35

Future Value = 1460000 * 17.7866

Future Value in the year 2050= $25968406.94.
