Question Completion:

Matrix payoff:

                                              Sharon

                                  Left              Right

Paolo     Left              8,  3             4,   4

              Right           5,  3             5,   4

Answer:

The only dominant strategy in this game is for ___Paolo______ to choose ____Right______.

The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Paolo chooses ____Right______ and Sharon chooses __ Right_____.

Explanation:

a) Paolo's dominant strategy is the strategy that always provides the greater utility to Paolo, no matter what Sharon's strategy is.  In this case, the dominant strategy for Paolo is to choose RIGHT always.

b) The Nash Equilibrium concept determines the optimal solution in a non-cooperative game in which each player (e.g. Paolo and Sharon) lacks any incentive to change their initial strategies. This implies that each player can achieve their desired outcomes by not deviating from their initial strategies since each player's strategy is optimal when considering the decisions of the other player.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

d. employees are encouraged to develop knowledge and expertise outside of their specialization.

Explanation:

An organizational structure can be defined as the process which typically involves dividing an organization into various functional units.

Basically, the organizational structure comprises of three (3) main dimensions and these are;

I. The vertical dimension: this is typically the decision-making responsibilities (decentralization and centralization).

II. The horizontal dimension: this divides the organization into subunits.

III. Integrating mechanisms: it is based typically on the strategic mechanism that controls the various subunits within an organization.

An employee can be defined as an individual who is employed by an employer of labor to perform specific tasks, duties or functions in an organization.

Basically, an employee is saddled with the responsibility of providing specific services to the organization or company where he is currently employed while being paid a certain amount of money hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly depending on the contractual agreement between the two parties (employer and employee).

In an organic organization unlike a mechanistic organisation, employees are encouraged to develop knowledge and expertise outside of their specialization rather than being static or inflexible.

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis​ (BEA) has recently adopted a new approach to calculate real GDP and real GDP growth to cor
pashok25 [27]

One of the features of the new approach is​ that, now BEA uses the geometric average of fixed weight indexes and uses two base years to calculate the growth rate of real GDP between two consecutive years.

Explanation:

In both actual and nominal GDP, the U.S. Economic Analysis Department results. It estimates the real United States. GDP is a fixed base year annual rate. Imports and international sales from American businesses and people are exempt.

GDP reflects the degree to which the economy generates production. Global warming is not generated and not part of GDP. The effect of environmental damage is not measured accurately. The loss should not be included in GDP and the calculation of environmental damage has not been accepted.
