Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Fixed cost is

= $500,000 + $1,000,000

= $1,500,000

And, the marginal cost is

= $0.25 + $0.10

= $0.35 per paer

Now

as we know that

AFC = FC ÷ Q

Now for At 1,000,000 papers,

AFC is

= 1,500,000 ÷ 1,000,000

= $1.50/mo

At 800,000 , it would be

AFC = 1,500,000 ÷ 800,000

= $1.875/mo

MC = $0.35 per paper  and the same is not changed

Now for break even, the average total cost is

ATC = AFC + AVC

ATC = FC ÷ Q + VC ÷ Q

VC = MC × Q

ATC = FC ÷ Q + MC

ATC = FC ÷ Q + 0.35

At Q = 1,000,000,

ATC = 1.50 + 0.35

ATC = $1.85

At Q = 800,000 , it would be

ATC = 1.875 + 0.35

=  $2.225

As it can be seen that

The AFC changes from 1.50 to 1.875 which shows an increment of 0.375.

The MC remains constant or same  at 0.35 as the printing and delivery costs per paper are remain same

And, The minimum amount that we must charge to break even rises i.e. from 1.85 to 2.225. That is a rise of 0.375

There is conflict and distrust in the team. Glen, the team leader, doesn't think the team members are working enough. The team members, on the other hand, don't think Glen trusts them to do their jobs. You want to resolve this conflict and make sure it doesn't happen again-<u>This can be achieved by using Conflict Management technique</u>

Explanation:

<u>Conflict in the workplace is inevitable and is a painful reality and is the major reason   for poor productivity and frustration among the employees.If conflict is managed in a proper way it can lead to increase in employees productivity.The strategist that can be used are:-</u>

<u>1) Understand the situation. </u>

Understanding/listening  both the side of the story before resolving the conflict is very important

<u>2) Acknowledge the problem. </u>

Acknowledging the frustration and concerns of the employees is an important step in resolving the conflict. what might seems to be a small problem to an employee may be a big problem for another person

<u> 3)Be patient while making decision. </u>

Information evaluation require time.Do not take any decision related to conflict management quickly,try to understand and resolve the situation.

<u>4)Avoid using coercion and intimidation. </u>

Emotional outbursts or coercing people may stop the problem temporarily, but do not fool yourself into thinking it is a long-term solution. Odds are the problem will resurface. At that point not only will you have the initial problem to deal with, but also the angry feelings that have festered below the surface during the interim.

<u>5) Focus on the problem, not the individual. </u>

Most people are known to be a  “problematic individual” during their work but one must avoid their  own pre-conceived notion or attitude about individuals and should focus on problem resolution.

<u>6) Establish guidelines. </u>

setting guidelines before the meeting

<u>7) Keep the communication open. </u>

Allow both the parties to keep their points on the conflict and then try to identify the real cause of conflict.

<u> 8. Act decisively. </u>

Communicating  to all the parties involved, and reviewed all the circumstances, and then take  your decision and act. Don’t leave the issue in limbo.

makkiz [27]

The Second reason they are willing to pay so much less or lower is because the expected value will rarely reach over $10 because player would have to make it to the 5th flip in order to recoup their investment in which most of the players are unwilling and ready to take that risk.
