lukranit [14]

Answer:

In this case, Jack's "human/interpersonal skills" failed. The skills that Jack is failing to use are important for "managers."

Explanation:

From the statement above, we can assume that Jack's position is superior to that of Samantha. He is, probably, the manager. However, he yelled at Samantha last week because she was late. In this case, Jack failed in his "human skills." This is also known as<em> "interpersonal skills,"</em> which is <u>a set of skills related to interacting effectively with other people.</u>

A manager with good interpersonal skills knows how to listen to his subordinates. In fact, he should be an <em>active listener,</em> which means he should be observant upon listening to other people's explanation. He should also provide advice or solve problems without yelling.

Thus, this explain the answers.

You are the CFO of a US firm whose wholly owned subsidiary in Mexico manufactures component parts for your U.S. assembly operati
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the Peso depreciates by 30%, the firm can save money on the costs of production as the inputs would be less costly but the market for the firm in Mexico would be affected negatively as the depreciation of the peso would mean that now, the consumer can buy more goods with the same amount of money which will increase the demand. The loans that the subsidiary has taken would also be affected as it has to pay more for the collateral.

If the company reduces the inventory and stock the foreign receivables before the depreciation occurs to minimize the loss. Before the depreciation happens, the firm can convert the pesos denomination to the dollar so that its value doesn't fall.
