Answer:
D. Choosing talented company personnel to get the causes of poor performance fixed quickly and then making sure they are generously rewarded for their success.
Explanation:
Leadership is an essential function for a company to be well positioned in the market and achieve its objectives and goals.
According to Fayol, the role of a leader is to plan, organize, command, coordinate and control, so these functions correspond to all alternatives in the text, except D, because the function of quickly resolving the causes of poor performance at work is the leader and not an employee even if the leader believes that the employee has the capacity for such a task.

What would happen to GDP if a significant number of house-spouses who were previously staying home to care for their children began taking jobs and placing their children in day-care? Would the nation's well-being necessarily be better off?
Answer:
The GDP will increase.
Explanation:
The number of women taking a job will result in the rise of real GDP because their participation will increase the number of economic activities. Therefore, a rise in economic activities will boost the GDP. But it would be uncertain to say that the well being of the nation will be better off because daycare will harm the bond of children and parents. Moreover, lack of parental supervision will result in the low performance of children at the latter age and if the child is at the age in which breastfeeding is required then lack of breastfeeding may harm child's physical and mental health as well.

Answer:
Neat Clothes
1. Can you explain how did we get 22,400?
The total wages for 2 weeks or 10 days (5 days each) is $32,000. For the weeks under review, only 7 days are worked in June, the remaining 3 days are in July. To calculate June salaries alone the $32,000 is divided by 10 days, to get the wages per day, and then multiplied by 7 days for the seven days in June.
2. Why we divide 7 over 10? What does 7 mean and what does 10 represent?
The 7 means the days of work done in June and 10 represents the 2 weeks for which wages are being calculated.
So, dividing 7 over 10 gives the proportion of June salaries from the total of $32,000.

The Oliver Company plans to market a new product. Based on its market studies, Oliver estimates that it can sell up to 5,500 units in 2005. The selling price will be $2 per unit. Variable costs are estimated to be 20% of total revenue. Fixed costs are estimated to be $6,400 for 2005. How many units should the company sell to break even
Answer:
4,000
Explanation:
Break even quantity = fixed cost / price - variable cost per unit
Total revenue = price x quantity sold
$2 x 5,500 = $11,000
Variable cost = 0.2 x $11,000 = $2,200
Variable cost per unit = $2,200 / 5500 = $0.4
$6,400 / $2 - $0.4 = 4,000
What is the future value of $15,000 received today if it is invested at 7.5% compounded annually for five years
Answer:
the future value is $21,534.44
Explanation:
The computation of the future value is shown below:
As we know that
Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years
where,
Present value is $15,000
The Interest rate is 7.5%
And, the number of the year is 5 years
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the future value is
= $15,000 × (1 + 0.075)^5
= $21,534.44
Hence, the future value is $21,534.44

Orange Co. is a manufacturer and Pineapple Company is a merchandiser. What is the difference in the budgets the two entities will prepare?
Answer:
Orange Co.'s budget will include the cost of production, which is made up of raw materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. The above cost of production and the accompanying items will not be found in the budget of Pineapple Company. The latter's budget will focus on purchase of goods for sale (instead of raw materials) and inventories of finished goods (instead of raw materials and work in process). Orange Co. determines its product cost per unit from the cost of production divided by the quantity produced. Pineapple Company's product cost is based on the purchase price of goods, which includes the manufacturer's profit.
Explanation:
The operations and accounting for the cost of production of Orange Co. will be different from Pineapple Company's. The difference is a reflection of their statuses as manufacturer and merchandiser respectively. Orange Co. manufactures and sells goods while Pineapple Company sell manufactured goods.

A bond with a coupon rate of 5.16 percent and semiannual coupon payments matures in 12 years. The YTM is 6.37 percent. What is the effective annual yield?
Answer:
6.47%
Explanation:
The computation of effective annual yield is shown below:-
Annual YTM = 6.37%
Semiannual YTM = 6.37% ÷ 2
= 3.185%
Effective Annual Yield = (1 + Semiannual YTM)^2 - 1
= (1 + 0.03185)^2 - 1
= 1.03185^2 - 1
= 1.0647 - 1
= 0.0647
or
= 6.47%
Hence, the effective annual yield is 6.47% i.e come after applying the above formula
e. Which country has a comparative advantage in producing cars? f. Which country has a comparative advantage in producing grain?
Answer:
Comparative advantage in Cars - JapanComparative advantage in grain - AmericaExplanation:
The country that has a competitive advantage in producing something is the one that has less opportunity cost when they do so. In other words, they give up less of another good in order to produce a good.
The Japanese can either produce 4 cars or 5 tons of grain in a year. If they forgo 1 car therefore they produce 5/4 = 1.25 tons of grain per year.
If Americans forgo 1 car they produce 10/4 = 2.5 tons of grain.
Japan has a lower opportunity cost producing cars so they have a comparative advantage.
For Japan to produce 1 ton of grain they will forgo 5/4 = 0.8 cars. For Americans to produce 1 ton of grain they will forgo 4/10 = 0.4 cars.
America has a lower opportunity cost producing grain so they have a comparative advantage.

What investments could Trafigura make to maximise its market position while maintaining a responsible risk profile
Answer:
By applying a process of natural hedging, with integrated operational management, logistics and infrastructural investments, Trafigura can diversify its activities and investments so that risks are flattened out. For instance, its investments in storage and shipping capabilities ensure that if the demand for storage is low, the demand for shipping will increase and vice versa.
Furthermore, when Trafigura is not trading actively in the physical commodity, it can use its asset management, logistics, and distribution capabilities and globalized network of subsidiaries and activities to offset the low revenue from trading. These diversified investments and assets, therefore, enhance and complement its various activities so that its risk profile is constantly being managed in a balanced manner without incurring so much risk costs.
Explanation:
Trafigura Group Pte. Ltd. according to sources, is one of the world's "largest independent and integrated commodity traders and a logistics, warehousing, asset management, mining, and energy distribution conglomerate." As a multinational commodity trading company founded in 1993, Trafigura trades in base metals and energy, and is registered and headquartered in Singapore.
