Answer:
The factors that affect individual productivity is described below in details.
Explanation:
Important Factors Influencing Employee Productivity:
Work Environment: An employee’s work conditions affect their attitude, energy, and overall production in your organization. Processes: Processes, or their inadequacy, has a tremendous influence on organizational potency.Goals: Clearly illustrated work goals are great for boosting potency levels because they’re dimensions of productivity themselves.The subsidiary of a U.S. corporation located in Country Y generated income of $1,000,000 on which it paid $400,000 (40%) in taxes to Country Y. The subsidiary paid a dividend to the U.S. parent of $54,000. How much tax is currently owed to the U.S. government if the federal tax rate is 35%
Answer:
The tax currently owed to the U.S. government is:
$18,900
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Income generated by the foreign subsidiary = $1,000,000
Tax paid by the subsidiary in its country of residence = $400,000
Dividend paid to the U.S. parent = $54,000
Federal tax rate = 35%
Tax on the dividend = $18,900 ($54,000 * 35%)
b) The dividend of $54,000 is a foreign-source income earned by a U.S. parent corporation. This is this amount that will be subject to tax in the U.S. and not the net income of the subsidiary.

A new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Additional time costs $180 per hour. What are the average and marginal costs per hour for the following quantities?
a) 125.
b) 225.
c) 325.
Answer:
a) 0, 0
b) 180 per hour, 20per hour
c) 180 per hour , 69.2 per hour
Explanation:
We are to calculate the average and marginal costs per hour of the given value above
a) Given Number of hours is 125, but we are told that the new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Then MARGINAL COST= 0 because the service can be equal to 200hours and the given 125 hours is less than that.
then AVERAGE COST = ZERO
(b) we are Given 225 number of hours
Additional time costs is given as $180 per hour.
Then we have $180 per hour as MARGINAL COST.
Total cost can be calculated as
= [$180 × (225 - 200)]
=[ $180 ×25] = $4,500
Average cost can be calculated as
ratio of Total cost to Number of hours i.e $4,500/225
= 20per hour
C)we are Given 325 number of hours
Additional time costs is given as $180 per hour.
Then we have $180 per hour as MARGINAL COST.
Total cost can be calculated as
= [$180 × (235 - 200)]
=[ $180 ×125] = $22,500
Average cost can be calculated as
ratio of Total cost to Number of hours i.e $22,500/325
= 69.2per hour
An internal study by the Technology Services department at Lahey Electronics revealed company employees receive an average of two emails per hour. Assume the arrival of these emails is approximated by the Poisson distribution.
a. What is the probability Linda Lahey, company president, received exactly 1 email between 4 P.M. and 5 P.M. yesterday?
b. What is the probability she received 5 or more emails during the same period?
c. What is the probability she did not receive any emails during the period?
Answer:
0.2706 ; 0.05265 ; 0.1353
Explanation:
Given that :
λ = 2
According to the poisson distribution formula :
P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!
P(x = 1) = (2^1 *e^-2) / 1!
P(x = 1) = (2 * 0.1353352) = 0.2706
P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - [p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3) + p(x = 4)]
We obtain and add the individual probabilities. To save computation time, we can use a poisson distribution calculator :
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - (0.13534+0.27067+0.27067+0.18045+0.09022)
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - 0.94735 = 0.05265
P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5) = 0.05265
Probability that no emails was received :
x = 0
P(x = 0) = (2^0 *e^-2) / 0!
P(x = 0) = (1 * 0.1353352) / 1 = 0.1353

Vicky Torres and Juanita Alva were the first in line at Best Buy during a Black Friday sale so that they could secure a large-screen TV, which was normally $499 and was advertised on sale at $199. Because they arrived three weeks early, they ended up waiting in line for a total of 500 hours! The authors of your textbook found their choice puzzling because of the high opportunity cost in this scenario. The authors say: "Saving $300 by spending 500 hours makes Vicky and Juanita's time worth 60 cents an hour. They could have spent 30 hours working an extra job at $10 an hour and each earned enough money to purchase the TV at full price-and still had 470 hours to do other things. In short, they don't seem to have been aware of the opportunity cost of waiting in line." But this is not the only conclusion one can draw from Vicky and Juanita's behavior. Choose the conclusion below that would be consistent with the idea that Vicky and Juanita were aware of the opportunity costs yet still found the three-week-wait to be worthwhile.
a. "However, they might have enjoyed the experience of camping out in line, meeting other customers, and gaining a degree of fame for their commitment to getting a good deal."
b. "Vicky and Juanita really enjoy their high paying jobs and don't like camping at all."
c. "If they are able to camp out for three weeks, they probably do not have full-time jobs, so earning 60 cents an hour is a good decision for the shoppers."
Answer:
a. "However, they might have enjoyed the experience of camping out in line, meeting other customers, and gaining a degree of fame for their commitment to getting a good deal."
Explanation:
Opportunity costs refer to the extra costs or benefits lost associated with choosing one activity or investment over another alternative. In other words, every activity that you carry out includes the opportunity cost of not doing something else. Vicky and Juanita obtained more than just the $300 discount, they also met new people and a little bit of fame.

Suppose your own demand curve for sweaters slopes downward. Suppose also that, for the last sweater you bought this week, you paid a price exactly equal to your willingness to pay. Then
Use letters in alphabetical order to select options
A your consumer surplus on the last sweater you bought is zero.
B you already have bought too many sweaters this week.
C your consumer surplus on all of the sweaters you have bought this week is zero.
D you should buy more sweaters before the end of the week.

Assume, for Mexico, that the domestic price of oranges without international trade is lower than the world price of oranges. This suggests that, in the production o! oranges:________
a. Mexico has a comparative advantage over other countries and Mexico will export oranges.
b. Mexico has a comparative advantage over other countries and Mexico will import oranges.
c. Other countries have a comparative advantage over Mexico and Mexico will export oranges.
d. Other countries have a comparative advantage over Mexico and Mexico will import oranges.
Answer: Mexico has a comparative advantage over other countries and Mexico will export oranges
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, we can see that Mexico has a comparative advantage. This implies that Mexico can produce oranges at a lower opportunity cost when it is compared to other countries.
In this case, since Mexico has a comparative advantage over other countries, it implies that Mexico will export oranges.

You purchase a $1,000 asset for $800. It pays $60 a year for seven years at which time you receive the $1,000 principal. Prove that the annual return on this investment is not 9 percent.
Answer:
Please check explanations for answer
Explanation:
Here, we want to prove that the ROI is not 9 percent per annum
The amount spent buying the item is $800
Now, there is $60 payment per year for 7 years
The total amount received as the total of payment per year after the 7 years will be;
7 * 60 = $420
Now, instead of the $800 paid initially, $1000 was returned as the principal
What this mean is that there is an extra $200 gain including the $420 that was paid earlier
So the total amount of gain on the investment is $200 + $420 = $620
Now, we proceed to calculate the percentage this was, relative to the amount invested
That would be;
620/800 * 100%
= 77.5%
So there was a 77.5% ROI
so the yearly return on this will be;
77.5%/7 = 11.07 which is approximately 11%
So the ROI is 11% and not 9%
Is $1970.00 rental income debit or credit
ReNew Corporation raises funds to build renewable energy systems by issuing 3-year bonds with a coupon rate of 5% and a face value of $1,800. Assume that the market interest rate for a 3-year bond issued by a firm like ReNew is currently the same as the coupon rate. The price of each of these bonds is , which means that the bonds sell at .
Answer:
$1,800
Explanation:
The price of the bond today is the present value of future cash flows, which are the coupon payments and the face value receivable by bondholders at redemption in 3 years.
When a bond has the same coupon rate as the yield, the bond would sell at par which is the $1,800 par value.
This is further affirmed using the formula below:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+annual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
face value=$1,800
r=yield=5%
n=number of annual coupons in 3 years=3
annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1800*5%=$90
bond price=$1800/(1+5%)^3+$90*(1-(1+5%)^-3/5%
bond price=$1800/1.05^3+$90*(1-(1.05)^-3/0.05
bond price=$1800/1.157625+$90*(1-0.863838)/0.05
bond price=$1800/1.157625+$90*0.136162/0.05
bond price=$ 1,554.91 +$ 245.09
bond price=$ 1,800.00
