Answer:
After 100 years, real GDP per person in Alpha is <u>4 TIMES</u> smaller than real GDP per person in Omega.
Explanation:
Current real GDP per capita in Alpha = $2,000
in 100 years, the real GDP per capita in Alpha = $2,000 x (1 + 1.5%)¹⁰⁰ = $5,848.87
Current real GDP per capita in Omega = $2,000
in 100 years, the real GDP per capita in Omega = $2,000 x (1 + 2.5%)¹⁰⁰ = $23,627.43
Alpha's real GDP per capita is 4 times smaller than Omega's = $23,627.43 / $5,848.87 = 4.04 times
*I used the future value formula: FV = PV (1 + r)ⁿ
Answer:
C) unstructured interviews
Explanation:
An unstructured interview is generally more informal and doesn't follow a defined structure, pattern or script. Generally the interviewer is allowed to determine how many questions he/she will ask to the candidate depending on the answers given previously. The interviewer might also decide to use other types of methods, like completing a process or solving a problem which varies from one candidate to another.
Answer:
ROI = net profit / total investment
1. What is the current return on investment (ROI) being realized by your division
- ROI = $625,000 / $4,150,000 = 15.06%
2. What would happen to the near-term ROI of your division after adding the effect of the new investment?
- ROI = ($625,000 + $50,000) / ($4,150,000 + $550,000) = 14.36%
If you carry out the new project the ROI of your division will decrease.
3. As manager of this division, given your incentive compensation plan, would you be motivated to make the new investment?
- Even though the new project's return (9.1%) is considered acceptable by upper management, you will probably reject it since it will decrease your division's total ROI. When managers are assigned bonuses based on certain achievements, reducing your profitability ratio will probably result in no bonus.
