Gibson Electronics’ approach is risky because of the problems associated with sharing valuable technological know-how with a potential competitor. Technological know-how in organization can be regarded as sets of knowledge as well as skills which is developed by that participants and is used to guide the acquisition as well as creation, and operation of computer-based systems which gives enablements or brings about facilitation of the performance of business processes, sharing this with competitors in business could be dangerous potential competitors can embrace it to move their business forward which will affect the owner of the Technological know how Businesses in the market.
Answer:
26762.74
Explanation:
Prior service cost amortization for 2020 can be calculated by first calculating the average time until the employee's retirement. After calculating the average time until retirement we will divide the service cost at that time
Workings
average time until retirment = 1880/330
average time until retirment = 5.69 years
prior service cost amortization for 2020 = $152,280/5.69
prior service cost amortization for 2020 = $26762.74
Answer:
a) Qs = 50 + 20p - 7ps
= 50 + 20p - 7×(2)
= 50 + 20p - 14
= 36 + 20p
At equilibrium, 
= 
So, 150 - 10p + 5
= 36 + 20p
So, 20p + 10p = 30p
= 150 - 36 + 5
= 114 + 5
So, p = (114/30) + (5/30)
= 3.8 + 0.17
Thus, 
= 3.8 + 0.17
Q = 36 + 20p
= 36 + 20(3.8 + 0.17)
= 36 + 76 + 3.4
= 112 + 3.4
Thus, 
= 112 + 3.4
b) = 3.8 + 0.17
= 3.8 + 0.17×(5)
= 3.8 + .85
= 4.65
= 112 + 3.4
= 112 + 3.4(5)
= 112 + 17
= 129
c) Qd = 150 - 10p + 5pb = 150 - 10(2.5) + 5(5) = 150 - 25 + 25 = 150
Qs = 36 + 20p = 36 + 20(2.5) = 36 + 50 = 86
Thus, there is excess demand as >
d) New = 180 - 10p + 5
= 180 - 10p + 5×(5)
= 180 - 10p + 25
= 205 - 10p
Now, new = gives,
205 - 10p = 36 + 20p
So, 20p + 10p = 205 - 36
So, 30p = 169
So, p = 169÷30
So, = 5.63
Q = 205 - 10p = 205 - 10×(5.63) = 205 - 56.3 = 148.7
So, = 148.7
If the total production exceeds the total expenditures this means that there are more goods are produced than the demand of each households. Thus, this will lead to an increase of inventory. Then this will signal the manufacturing firm that they have overproduced the goods which will lead to cut back the production. This leads to lesser prices and/or unsold goods alongside with the likelihood of unemployment. Therefore the answer is d.
