Answer:

Explanation:

I will split this answer into two options...

Fiber Optic communications work by sending data through beams of light through a series of fiber cables. This allows for data transfer at incredibly high speeds and with an almost non-existent probability of data loss. Since cables need to be connected from one end-point to another this form of communication becomes more expensive and the capability of reconfiguration becomes incredibly difficult. The likelihood of failure is also very low due to the nature of the technology.

Satellite communication sends data wirelessly by beaming the data to satellites and then back down to the destination. This allows for data to be transferred worldwide but runs into the risk of interference, data loss, signal loss etc. Costs are much cheaper than Fiber Optics due to the lack of wiring. Multipoint capabilities are high since endpoints can be placed anywhere with a clear line of sight to the sky, which also means that reconfiguration capabilities are high as well.

Your friend Burrell says that the government should hire fewer social workers in order to reduce the cost of federal assistance
BARSIC [14]

Answer: b) peoples' responses to financial incentives.

Explanation:

Burrell would be wrong because the most leakage in federal assistance programs comes from the way people respond to financial incentives.

Some people who have received this assistance from the Federal government have decided that it would be better to keep receiving this assistance instead of working to actually get paid.

This has led to more people seeking assistance thereby increasing the number of people needing assistance and invariably increasing the cost of these federal assistance programs.

"When Jiffy-Pop packaged its popcorn in an aluminum skillet, complete with attachable handle, it designed the package to become
user100 [1]

<u>Answer:</u>

Jiffy-Pop’s popcorn, in this case, is an example of <u>innovative packaging.</u>  

<u>Explanation:</u>

The days have passed when packaging is merely a means to secure and label an item. These basic tasks must be performed by packaging in a successful product, however the effect of packaging is progressively higher. It's often appropriate to create many design elements in tandem, so that they are the best and most efficient packages within the project's objectives and limitations.

A new update or innovation may attract customers who are searching for economic benefit or who think they have an unsatisfied need or want. In the case of Jiffy-Pop, the customer need not to buy a skillet and a bowl to cook and place the popcorn, in fact both these functions are performed by the outer innovative packaging done by the Jiffy-Pop’s popcorn itself. Thus, customers tend to buy this product more compared to others.

The Shirt Shop had the following transactions for T-shirts for Year 1, its first year of operations: Jan. 20 Purchased 400 units
viva [34]

Answer:

WA      1,682

LIFO      910

FIFO  2,260

Explanation:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}Date&Cost&Units&Subtotal\\$Jan 20th&8&400&3200\\$April 21th&10&200&2000\\$July 25th&13&280&3640\\$Sept 19th&15&90&1350\\$Total&10.51&970&10190\\\end{array}\right]

We add the units purchase and the subtotal to get the total units available for sale.

Ending inventory physical units: 970 - 810 = 160 units

<u>Then, we calculate for each method:</u>

Weighted average:

cost of goods / available units = 10,190 / 970 =  10.51

160 units x 10.51 = 1,681.6‬

LIFO:

Ending inventory will be the oldest units:

160 units x 8 = 960

FIFO:

Ending inventory will be the newest units as the units are sold as soon as they come in

90 x 15 =  1,350

70 x 13 =     910

Total       2,260
