Goryan [66]3 years ago

Answer: For this statement.

Explanation:

People will generally offer their loyalties to those who pay them the highest or who pay them at all and companies will typically be loyal to their country of origin.

What this means is that trade negotiators who work for lobbyists of foreign firms will typically want to advance the interests of the foreign firms when negotiating trade deals for the U.S. government.

This presents a problem because the foreign companies might want to negotiate a deal that favors their own countries over the United States so if trade negotiators that are on their side are the ones negotiating for the United States, the U.S. might not get a good enough deal.

Imagine for instance, a person negotiating a trade deal for the U.S. with China but the person works for lobbyists of Huawei. It is reasonable to assume that the person would want to advance the interests of China on behalf of Huawei. Restricting such a person from negotiating for the U.S. reduces such a possibility.

C. minimize non-selling time.

D. determine duration of sales calls.

E. provide salespeople with an opportunity to plan their own routes and schedules

Answer:

Option C. Minimizing non-selling time.

Explanation:

The reason is that sales reps must lower their non selling time as this makes them inefficient for the company and would also increase their loss of time and commission. So every sales representative acknowledges his primary goal to decrease the non selling time which means he is trying to make sale.

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

C : $3,000,000

Explanation:

The Levi Strauss has sold futures at the price of $0.83/lb. The spot price for cotton is $0.81/lb. The difference between spot and exchange price is 0.02/lb ($0.83/lb - $0.81/lb). On November 30, The future prices of cotton raised to 0.85/lb. The average spot of the inventory when purchased was 0.58/lb. To record the inventory in balance sheet we will use average spot plus difference of spot and exchange price $0.58/lb + $0.02/lb = $0.60/lb. The total amount which will be reported in balance sheet will be 200 futures contacts * 25,000lbs * $060/lb = $3,000,000.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The dam should be constructed. The investment discounted payback is 25 years.  

Explanation:

We have to make a cash flow for this case with the given data.  See the document attached.  

We consider an Initial cost of 30 millions in period 0,  then we have every periods benefit of 2.800.000 and 100000 direct cost.  

With those,  is obtained net cash flow for each year (period),  if we consider the given rate of interest, can be calculated the discounted cash flow

To know when this project covers all the investment,  we have to consider the cumulative discounted cash flow.  We have to see in the cash flow chart when the cumulative discounted cash flow break the 0 (became higher than 0).  

In this case ,  that will be at period 25. So we have to wait 25 years to recover the initial cost. Considering that the dam usually has a lifetime higher than that time,  the project at this scenario,  should be done.
