Answer:

Break-even point for the manual process= 281.11 unit

Explanation:

<em>Break-even point is the level of activity at which a firm must operate such that its total revenue will equal its total costs. At this point, the company makes no profit or loss because the total contribution exactly equals the total fixed costs</em>.

Break even point in units is calculated using this formula:  

Break even point in units = Total general fixed cost/ (selling price - Variable cost)

Break-even point for the manual process:

Break-even point in units = $26,380/(99- 5.16) = 281.11 units

Break-even point for the manual process= 281.11 units

True or False: With the export subsidy, domestic producers will sell steel to domestic consumers and sell the rest abroad.
Bess [88]

The answer to the question of whether the export subsidy would make domestic producers sell steel to domestic consumers and sell the rest abroad is:

  • False because the domestic producers would not want to sell at a lesser price than what they would have sold abroad.

<h3>What is Export Subsidy?</h3>

This refers to the government policy which is meant to discourage export of goods with the aim of regulating the economy which usually leads to the increase in the amount of customer surplus in the market.

With this in mind, we can see that the export subsidy has to do with the increase in domestic price whereby there is a higher cost for exports for producers.

It has been said that incentive plans work only for a relatively short time. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Why o
VashaNatasha [74]
<span>The correct answer is that it depends on the specifics of the incentive plan. A general incentive plan that is not linked directly to productivity will typically become old news to staff within a few years. What was once an incentive will become familiar and may be viewed as an entitlement as staff start looking for the eternal "what's next?". An incentive directly linked to some kind of productivity (e.g. hours worked) will have a far longer shelf life (though this will, of course, vary by employee). In this scenario the ongoing incentive remains year over year (e.g. the hours of overtime worked in the previous year will have no bearing on the current year so if you want a similar result you will need to maintain your effort whereas if you want a better result you will have to increase your effort). All incentive plans, however, are subject to the rules of diminishing marginal utility to the employees and will diminish over time as the employee either becomes comfortable at a certain productivity level or becomes disenchanted by other factors. In summation: an incentive plan, if designed properly, can work for a relatively long period of years though results may vary by employee as everyone is motivated by different things (though providing an alternative incentive to money may somewhat mitigate this additional potential problem).</span>
