Answer:

4.62  years

8.02%

Explanation:

The payback period is the number of years it would take the investment to recoup itself.

Payback=initial capital outlay/annual cash flow

initial capital outlay is the cost of the new  machine plus installation cost minus the salvage value of the old machine.

initial capital outlay=$40,070+$1,200-$2,000=$ 39,270.00

Annual cash flow is the reduction in operating costs of $8,500 per year

payback =$ 39,270.00/$8,500.00=4.62  years

tamaranim1 [39]

The correct answer would be option C.

Allowing employees to pray during work time.

Explanation:

Non penalized religious observance means, If someone practice his or her religion during the work hours, as it is compulsory in his/her religion to do so, at the place where he works.

So companies allow employees to pray during work hours which will be a non penalized religious observance for the employees.

For example, If there is a Muslim who works in an organization which is owned by the people of other religion, and if he offers his prayers during his work hours, then the company will respect his offerings and won't charge or penalize him on the observance of his religion during the office timings.

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

C. a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.

Explanation:

Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.

The four factors of production are;

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

These four (4) factors of production when combined effectively and efficiently are used for the manufacturing or production of goods and services that meets the unending requirements or needs of the consumers.

A public good is a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.

This ultimately implies that, a public good such as power utility (electricity) or water supply is capable of being provided simultaneously to the general public.

Furthermore, a public good is non-excludable and cannot be exhausted due to its use by the general public i.e it's never depleted.
