Answer:
$102,080
Explanation:
Given that,
Service cost = $90,500
Interest rate = 9 %
Expected return on plan assets = $62,800
Prior service cost amortization = $10,300
Projected benefit obligation at January 1, 2017 = $712,900
Pension expense for the year 2017:
= Service cost + Interest cost - Expected return on plan assets + Prior service cost amortization
= $90,500 + ($712,900 × 9%) - $62,800 + $10,300
= $90,500 + $64,080 - $62,800 + $10,300
= $102,080
Answer:
d) decease in demand
Explanation:
When the produce of sweet corn crop rises by 20%, this would lead to an increase in supply. With increase in supply, the price of sweet corn shall fall, which would lead to an increase in demand as now consumers will consume more of sweet corn.
Since the relationship between price of a good and demand for it's substitute is positive, the demand for the substitute shall fall.
Thus, demand for frozen peas shall decrease as demand for sweet corn has increased.
Answer: None of the above
Explanation:
None of the options seem to be correct.
Stakeholder is the people who are interested in the the decision made by an organization. When a change takes place in an organization, the stakeholders are affected by such change. Stakeholders include board, managers, shareholders, workers etc.
The first option is wrong as stakeholders are incidental to the change process. They're always ever present in the change process.
The second option is wrong as well. Some stakeholders are decision makers and can influence the potential outcome of organizational restructuring. e.g board etc.
The third option is also incorrect. This is because stakeholder expertise in managing change should be considered by change leaders in the planning of adaptable organizational structures. Some stakeholders are expertise in change management and their knowledge is needed when there is planning of adaptable organizational structures.
That means we're left with only the Fourth option which is the right answer.
Answer:
The correct answer is: expressed in the prices of a base year.
Explanation:
Real GDP is an inflation-adjusted measure to calculate changes in economic output. It calculates the value of final goods and services produced in an economy in a year expressed in the prices of a base year.
Real GDP does not include changes in the price of products as it is calculated at constant prices.
Nominal GDP, on the other hand, is calculated on the basis of current prices. It includes changes in prices and is not inflation-adjusted. That is why real GDP is preferred over nominal GDP.
