Answer:

The correct option is C,job enrichment

Explanation:

Job enlargement refers adding additional tasks to an employee's job description and it is done for different reasons. The chief possible motive for job enlargement could be prepare the employee for a higher role.

Satisficing on the job involves ensuring one is able to attend to tasks one is saddled with in order to achieve a balance between different stakeholders' expectations instead of prioritizing one's stakeholder's need over another.

Job enrichment is a way of encouraging employees to give out their best output by assigning to them jobs previously reserved for more senior employees

Job design implies making decision on a job description by considering tasks that could be combined and performed by a single employee

Job development is about appraising an employee with a view to discovering his growth needs on the job and make adequate arrangement in terms of training to enable the employee to bridge the skills gap

The bone contention here is between options A and C,but C is preferred since the additional tasks are tasks previously meant for one's managers.

beginning WIP + cost added during the period:

total cost to be accounted for.

Then this value can be either ransferred-out r remain at the ending WIP

so we construct as follows:

beginning                     0

added                180,000

Total cost           180,000

On January 1, 2016 Dinwiddie Company purchased a car that cost $45,000. The car had an expected useful life of 6 years and a $10
disa [49]

Answer:

.B. The amount of depreciation expense recognized in 2019 would be greater if Dinwiddie depreciates the car under the straight-line method than if the double declining balance method is used

Explanation:

The double-declining method recognizes higher depreciation amounts in the first years of an asset 's life. The method applies twice the rate of the straight-line method on a declining book value balances.  In the latter years, the depreciation amount will be less because the book value will have declined considerably.

In this case, a useful life of six years attracts a straight-line depreciation rate of 16.6 % (1/6 x 100). the double-declining method will apply a rate of  33.2 %.

The straight-line method applies a constant rate throughout the use-life of an asset. The book value decreases at a constant rate, unlike in double -declining, where the book value decreases rapidly in the early years of the asset.  2019 will be the fourth year in this case. The fourth-year is in the latter stages of a six-year useful life.

Suppose that the price of flour used to produce bagels increases. Hence the equilibrium price of a bagel​ ________ and the equil
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Increase , increase

Explanation:

A decrease in the supply of a product increases in its price. Reduced supply means many buyers competing for the few available products.  The prices of goods or services are determined by the intersection of the demand and supply curves. There is an indirect relationship between supply and price of quantity supplied when demand is constant. A reduced supply results in high prices while an increase in supply causes low prices.

As prices increase, suppliers will want to supply more to make profits. Constant demand and a high price will thus lead to an increase in equilibrium quantity.

Income rises from $3,500 to $4,000 a month and the quantity demanded of good X falls from 7 to 5 units a month. Income elasticit
finlep [7]

Answer:

E) -2.50 ; inferior

Explanation:

Before you earned $3,500 per month, you consumed 7 units per month. That means that you consumed 1 unit every $500 earned.

When your income increased to $4,000, you only consumed 5 units per month. That means that your consumption decreased to 1 unit for every $800.

The income elasticity of demand using the midpoint method is calculated by using the following formula:

income elasticity = {change in quantity demanded / [(old quantity + new quantity) / 2]} /  {change in income / [(old income + new income) / 2]}  

= {-2 / [(7 + 5) / 2]} /  {500 / [(3,500 + 4,000) / 2]} = (-2 / 6) / (500 / 3,750) = -0.333 / 0.133 = -2.5

Since the income elasticity of demand is negative, the good X is an inferior good.
