Why did a division of labor occur when people started to produce a surplus of food
Aneli [31]
Simple answer is efficiency.

More output can be produced if labour specialised and focused on a particular activity.

One due to the time saved from switching tasks and secondly getting better (and faster) at what they do.

This leads to two outcomes.
1. Lower average costs of production
2. Greater output.

If you invest P dollars and you want the investment to grow to A dollars in t years, the interest rate that must be earned if in
hoa [83]

Answer: 18.92%

Explanation:

The formula to find the compound amount :-

A=P(1+r)^t, where P is the Principal amount, r is the rate of interest and t is the time period.

Given : P= $1500

A = $6000

Time = 8 years

Then 6000=1500(1+r)^8

i.e. (1+r)^8=\dfrac{6000}{1500}=4

i

Taking natural log on both sides , we get

\Rightarrow\ 8\ln(1+r)=\ln(4)\\\\\Rightarrow\ \log(1+r)=\dfrac{\log4}{8}=\dfrac{1.38629436112}{8}=0.17328679514\\\\\Rightrarrow\ 1+r=e^{0.17328679514}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1+r=1.189207115\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=1.189207115-1=0.189207115\\\\\Rightarrow\ r\approx0.1892\approx18.92\%

natulia [17]

Answer:

b. the budget is adjusted to the actual activity for the period.

Explanation:

A flexible budget performance report is a comparison between actual costs and revenues, and the budgeted income and expenses at the end of a period, based on actual performance.  The report shows the difference between the actual results and the estimated numbers.  Management uses the report to determine if the company's results were in line with management expectations.
