Explanation:
Bank reserves are compulsory deposits by the banks that they are required to not loan out( they are kept in the vault). Therefore, when a local bank decides to convert some of its U.S. Treasury securities into cash, this is an increase in assets. Since the cash is held in its vault, reserves will increase, liabilities will not be affected and owner’s equity will also not be affected. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
Answer:
✔ Asking employees questions helps develop their critical thinking skills.
✘ Asking employees questions boosts their morale by helping them feel like experts, even though they’re not.
✘ Asking employees questions enhances their sense that the manager is the only person they should be in dialogue with, so they start talking less to each other.
✔ Asking employees how to solve problems empowers them to arrive at solutions to which they’re committed.
Explanation:
A manager who asks questions with a sincere interest in the answers is engaging in dialogue similar to a “regular” back-and-forth conversation, and this authenticity builds trust and promotes the open exchange of ideas. Another key benefit is that having employees think about questions, rather than just telling them information or telling them what to do, engages their critical thinking skills—which are key skills for organizational success. Also, when employees are asked how to solve problems, they are likely to have more buy-in to the solution they arrive at than to a solution imposed on them. Many people are motivated by feeling as though their ideas make a positive difference.
Lower-level employees are often the experts in operational details and often have more direct contact with customers than higher-level managers, so they have tremendous expertise that can and should be tapped. Asking employees questions begins an organizational dialogue that can lead to a decentralized communication network, in which employees freely exchange ideas with one another and not just with their manager.
Answer:
6%
Explanation:
As per given data
Quarter Real GDP ($billions) Long-Run Trend of Real GDP ($billions)
1 4,000 4,000
2 4,160 4,120
3 4,326 4,244
4 4,413 4,371
5 4,501 4,502
6 4,591 4,637
7 4,499 4,776
8 4,409 4,919
9 4,673 5,067
10 4,954 5,219
11 5,252 5,376
12 5,376 5,537
Growth of GDP = (DGP of Current/recent period - GDP of Prior period) / DGP of Prior period
In this question prior period is quarter 10 and current /recent period is quarter 11.
So, formula will be
Growth of GDP = (DGP of quarter 11 - GDP of quarter 10) / GDP of quarter 10
As we need to calculate the real GDP growth the formula will be as follow
Growth of real GDP = (Real DGP of quarter 11 - Real GDP of quarter 10) / Real GDP of quarter 10
Growth of real GDP = ($5,252 billion - $4,954 billion) / $4,954 billion
Growth of real GDP = $298 billion / $4,954 billion
Growth of real GDP = 6.02% = 6%
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
The above is false because sales people are supposed to build and maintain long term relationships with their customers by listening to and assessing their needs and not teaching their customers. Sales people create a concerted effort towards solving those needs experienced by their customers.
A salesperson represent the image of the company he or she is selling for, hence must be professional and well trained because the company gets profit through his interactions with the customers. This means that before the company gets profit, customers must be satisfied because these salespeople act as critical link between the company and its customers.
