Examine the quarterly sales data in a little different way. Contruct two pie charts, one for sales in 2012 and the other for sal
julsineya [31]

Answer:

sales are becoming less seasonal

Explanation:

besides constructing a pie chart, we can also answer this question by percentages (which is more exact).

2012:

total sales = $69,338

Q1 sales = $10,613 / $69,338 = 15.31%

Q2 sales = $6,424 / $69,338 = 9.26%

Q3 sales = $19,283 / $69,338 = 27.81%

Q4 sales = $33,019 / $69,338 = 47.68%

2013:

total sales = $142,238

Q1 sales = $30,342 / $142,238 = 21.33%

Q2 sales = $33,867 / $142,238 = 23.81%

Q3 sales = $34,246 / $142,238 = 24.08%

Q4 sales = $43,783 / $142,238 = 30.78%

During 2012, almost 50% of total sales happened during Q4, something similar to selling toys which are extremely seasonal due to Christmas.

During 2013, this changed since Q4 sales only represent 30% of total sales. Sales increased during Q1 and Q2, and slightly decreased in Q3. They are much more similar now, since sales are almost evenly spread throughout the year.

In a Cobb–Douglas production function the marginal product of labor will increase if:
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Option "B" is the correct answer to the following statement.

Explanation:

The rise in the labor workforce would raise the productive output of capital in a specific Cobb – Douglas output method, and it will raise the actual rental price of resources.

The gross amount of capital would also rise in the output of Cobb-Douglas if the volume of labor grows.

Under this function, human capital will help in the production of the product, human capital and marginal production are directly proportionate to each other.
