What is wrong with the following specific purpose: "To inform incoming students about the scholarship opportunities at the college and the financial-aid process"

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

there is more than one key idea

Explanation:

The main error with this is that there is more than one key idea. When dealing with a specific purpose, it must be just that "specific". In other words, the message must focus completely on a single key aspect that it is trying to convey. Adding more than one key idea divides the message and the reader's attention which ultimately fails the main purpose of the message.

Answer:

Answers

Answer:

the price earning ratio is 8.33

Explanation:

The computation of the price earning ratio is shown below:

P/E Ratio is

= share price ÷  Earning Per share

where,

The price of a share is

= 3 × 106

= $3.18

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

A country has a comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

For example :

there are two countries , A and B

B produces 5 kg of rice and 10 kg of beans

the opportunity cost of A :

in producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

In producing beans = 10/5 = 2

In producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

A has a lower opportunity cost and a comparative advantage in the production of rice.

B has a lower opportunity cost and a comparative advantage in the production of beans.

B. $372,000.

C. $492,000.

D. $620,000.

Answer:

Option C. $492,000

Operating Income From Continuing Operation     $620,000

Unusual Gain                                                           $200,000

The threat of new competitors will enter your market is _________ when entry is easy and _________ when there are significant barriers to entry.

Answers

Answer:

higher

lower

Explanation:

The easier it is to enter a market the higher the threat of new competitors and the more difficult it is to enter a market, the lower the threat of new competitors.

For example, it is pretty easy to set up a lemonade stand as the cost of doing so is quite low. So, it is easier for anyone to decide to set up a lemonade stand. So, we can say it is easy to enter the lemonade market and the threat of new competitors is high.

On the other hand, a research lab that produces medicine is pretty difficult to enter. the cost of setting up a lab is high, in addition one has to be approved by the government. so, it is difficult to enter this market and the threat of new competitors is low.
