Answer:

C. is producing with the least-costly combination of X and Y,but could increase its profits by employing more of X and less of Y

Explanation:

At equilibrium

We know that

MRPx ÷ MRPy = wx ÷ wy

So, according to the question, it is

100 ÷ 6< 50 ÷ 20

This means that MRPx ÷  wx  > MRPy ÷  wy

In this way, the equilibrium x would be rise and y would be decreased

Therefore the correct option is c.  

And, the rest of the options would be seems wrong

A company has a retention rate of 50%, sales of $25,000, beginning equity of $50,000 and profit margins of 10%, an asset turnove
Degger [83]

Answer:

Sustainable Growth Rate: 2.5%

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate is calculated by multiplying return on equity with retention ratio.

Logic behind above is that whatever portion of net profit is retained by the Company, is used in the Company's operations, which earns certain percentage of equity known as return on equity. By multiplying both return on equity with retention ratio, we assume that the practice will continue for foreseeable future and the Company will continue to grow at the calculated growth rate.

Growth rate = Retention ratio * return on equity

Retention ratio = 50%

Return on equity = Net profit available for distribution / Opening equity

Return on Equity = (25,000 * 10%) / 50,000

Return on Equity = 5%

Growth Rate = 5% * 50%

Growth Rate = 2.5%

A justification for job training programs is that they improve worker productivity. Suppose that you are asked to evaluate wheth
patriot [66]

Explanation:

1. The ceterus paribus effect gives us to what extent, the effect of a variable has on another variable, while holding all other factors fixed. Analysing job training of workers on productivity will give us results that are not biased since we will not be taking account of other factor variables in the calculations. When 2 firms are the same in almost every aspect apart from number of hours on training, then we will find out that each firm would have different levels of workers output. So we should know if workers output increases due to job training.

2. When it comes to provision of training, furms do these based on characteristics of the workers. Some of these characteristics are measurable while some are immeasurable

Measurable:

Experience on the job,

Productivity

Level of education,

immeasurable :

Skill set

Vision

Likeliness to bstay at firm

3. Apart from worker characteristics, productivity also depends on other factors one of which is technological change. A technological change can bring about increased efficiency and greater output by the worker. Different firms using different capital and technological combination are quite likely to have different output levels.

4. A positive correlation between job training and productivity cannot be used to ascertain if job training makes worker more efficient this is due to the fact that correlation only tells us if variables are in coexistence. So a positive correlation does not tell us that job training is indeed bringing about changes in the productivity of workers.
