Answer:
defensive listening
Explanation:
Defensive listening happens when an individual hears an apparently innocent commentary and takes it as a personal attack against himself/herself or their beliefs. Many times defense listening is caused because the individual constantly believes that other people are judging them or their ideas.
In this case, Corrine was offended by a commentary that was not intended to be a personal attack, but rather an opinion on a specific topic. Probably Corrine feels strongly against the idea of full-day kindergarten and that is why she felt attacked by a different opinion.
Answer:
Ans. the rate of return of this invesment is 3.5278% annual.
Explanation:
Hi, what we need to do here is to find the future value of all six payments, beginning when the child turns 12, which will end when he turns 17. One year later (when the child turns 18) he will receive $25,000 per year, for the next 4 years. This is the equation that we need to use (and solve for "r").
Where:
A1=$14,000
A2=$25,000
So, everything should look like this
As you can see, this would take forever to solve, so what we have to do is to use MS Excel, we have to use the "Goal Seek" function. Please check the MS Excel spread sheet attached to this answer.
Please use this function with the following parameters.
Set Cell: G7
To Value: 0
By changing cell: G2
Ans. 3.5278%
Best of luck.
Answer:
Power distance
Explanation:
"Power distance is a term that describes how people belonging to a specific culture view power relationships - superior/subordinate relationships - between people, including the degree that people not in power accept that power is spread unequally.
Individuals in cultures demonstrating a high power distance are very deferential to figures of authority and generally accept an unequal distribution of power, while individuals in cultures demonstrating a low power distance readily question authority and expect to participate in decisions that affect them. "

Answer: The correct answer is "a. the dollar will depreciate and the peso will appreciate.".
Explanation: If the inflation rate in the United States rises relative to the inflation rate in Mexico, it follows that the dollar will depreciate and the peso will appreciate.
As inflation in the United States is higher, the dollar is affected by a loss of purchasing power, therefore it depreciates with respect to the Mexican peso.
Answer:
Letter A. <u>Quality through constant innovation and quality assurance training.</u>
Explanation:
Alternative A is correct, as W. Edwards Deming was a pioneer scholar in the application of organizational quality management.
He was responsible for creating the 14 points, which are principles for management that will help the organization to achieve total quality. He was also responsible for popularizing the PDCA Cycle (PLAN, DO, CHECK, ACT), which is a strategic tool widely used worldwide to ensure continuous improvement and the quality of processes and products.
- PLAN: define objectives, methods and resources.
- DO: Perform, educate and train.
- CHECK: Measure and evaluate
- ACT: act correctly.
Continuous improvement can be achieved through the correct and targeted use of the PDCA cycle towards organizational objectives. For Deming, without continuous improvement, there is no survival of the organization in the market, so he argues that continuous improvement must be implemented in all phases of the project, to achieve the benefits of continuous improvement of processes, increased productivity and reduced costs.
