Answer:

O Downsizing

Explanation:

A lay off happens when the employer has closed down, has changed locations, or when there is not sufficient work for all the employees. A layoff is not caused by an employee's fault.

Downsizing refers to scaling down of operation. When a company downsizes, some of the employees will be laid off. Theodosia should mention she was laid off in her next application. The potential employer will realize that she wasn't at fault at her previous workplace.

Answer: ∑Tₓ = 201.222

time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

Explanation:

Given that,

total time required to four units is 600 hours,

Learning curve applied is 75% and from the learning curve coefficient table, total time factor to complete four units at 75% learning curve is 2.946

∑Tₙ = T₁ × total time factor

{ ∑Tₙ is total time required to complete all the units which is 600 hrs, T₁ is Time for first unit, total time factor = 2.946 }

we substitute

∑T₄ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

600 = ∑T₁ × 2.946

∑T₁ = 600/2.946

∑T₁ = 203.666 minutes

Now to get the total time required to complete 6 units, we say:

∑T₆ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

Note that total time factor at this point changes;

( from the learning curve coefficient table, total time factor to complete 6 units at 75% learning curve is 3.934)

so we substitute

∑T₆ = 203.666 × 3.934

∑T₆ = 801.222

Now to find how long should it take them to finish the last two units, we say

∑Tₓ = ∑T₆ - ∑T₄

∑Tₓ = 801.222 - 600

∑Tₓ = 201.222

Therefore time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

True or false alcohol and drug abuse only affects intoxicated individuals

AURORKA [14]

<span>The answer would be false. Alcohol and Drug abuse certainly physically affects only the user, but when it comes to mental, emotional, and financial aspects alcohol and drug abusers affect the people around them, their families, and in extension, society also. That is why alcohol and drug abuse is considered a public health issue as it affects many people apart from the user himself/herself. </span>

Smiley Industrial Goods has $1,000 face value bonds on the market with semiannual interest payments, 13.5 years to maturity, and

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Annual Coupon rate = 66.56990711 / 1000 = 0.06656990711 or 6.656990711% rounded off to 6.66%

Option B is the correct answer

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = C

Total periods (n) = 13.5 * 2 = 27

r or YTM = 0.064 * 6/12 = 0.032 or 3.2%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

We will first calculate the value of semi coupon payment made by the bond.

1023 = C * [( 1 - (1+0.032)^-27) / 0.032] + 1000 / (1+0.032)^27

1023 = C * 17.8994796 + 427.2166529

1023 - 427.2166529 = C * 17.8994796

595.7833471 / 17.8994796 = C

C = 33.28495355 rounded off to 33.28

The annual coupon payment will be = 33.28495355 * 2 = 66.56990711 rounded off to 66.57

Annual Coupon rate = 66.56990711 / 1000 = 0.06656990711 or 6.656990711% rounded off to 6.66%

mylen [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The $10,000 is the face value of the bond. Using a financial calculator, input the following to calculate the price at a year before maturity; i.e. at year 9;

Time to maturity; N = 10 - 9 = 1

Annual interest rate; I/Y = 9%

Annual coupon payment; PMT = 0

Face value of the bond; FV = 10,000

then compute present value ; CPT PV = $9,174.31

Therefore, you will pay less than $10,000 for the bond and the price would be as above $9,174.31

valkas [14]

Answer:

he values your time

Explanation:

In this specific scenario, the executive assistant is expressing nonverbally that he values your time. This is expressed by him stopping what he was doing in order to pay attention to what you have to say to him when you enter the room. Since the work that he is doing (e-mailing clients) is incredibly important, the simple act of him stopping shows that your time is more important to him.
