The Talbot Corporation makes wheels that it uses in the production of bicycles. Talbot's costs to produce 180,000 wheels annually are:
Direct materials $36,000
Direct labor $54,000
Variable manufacturing overhead $27,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead $66,000
An outside supplier has offered to sell Talbot similar wheels for $0.80 per wheel. If the wheels are purchased from the outside supplier, $21,000 of annual fixed overhead could be avoided and the facilities now being used could be rented to another company for $51,000 per year. Direct labor is a variable cost. If Talbot chooses to buy the wheel from the outside supplier, then annual net operating income would: __________
Answer:
If the company chooses to buy the wheels, income will increase by $69,000.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total relevant cost of production:
Relevant cost of production:
Total cost= direct material + direct labor + avoidable overhead
Total cost= 36,000 + 54,000 + (27,000 + 45,000)
Total cost= $162,000
Now, the total cost of buying the wheels:
Total cost= 180,000*0.8 - 51,000= $93,000
Difference= 93,000 - 162,000= -$69,000
If the company chooses to buy the wheels, income will increase by $69,000.

Answer:
a. Current Ratio = current assets / current liabilities = 190,000 / 153,000 = 1.24
b. Acid-test ratio = (current assets - inventory) / current liabilities = (190,000 - 50,000) / 153,000 = 0.92
c. Times interest earned = EBIT / interest expense = 65,000 / 8,000 = 8.13
d. Inventory turnover = COGS / inventory = 90,000 / 50,000 = 1.8
e. Total asset turnover = net sales / total assets = 210,000 / 525,000 = 0.4
f. Operating profit margin = operating income / total sales = 65,000 / 210,000 = 0.31
g. Days in receivables = (accounts receivables / total sales) x 365 = (30,000 / 210,000) x 365 = 52.14 days
h. Operating return on assets = operating income / total assets = 65,000 / 525,000 = 0.12
i. Debt ratio = total liabilities / total assets = 273,000 / 525,000 = 0.52
j. Fixed asset turnover = total sales / fixed assets = 210,000 / 335,000 = 0.63
k. Return on equity = net income / total equity = 45,030 / 252,000 = 0.18
Your classmates from the University of Chicago are planning to go to Miami for spring break, and you are undecided about whether you should go with them. The round-trip airfare is $600, but you have a frequent-flyer coupon worth $500 that you could use to pay part of the airfare. All other costs for the vacation are exactly $900. The most you would be willing to pay for the trip is $1,400. Your only alternative use for your frequent-flyer coupon is for your trip to Atlanta two weeks after the break to attend your sister's graduation, which your parents are forcing you to attend. The Chicago-Atlanta round-trip airfare is $450. If the Chicago-Atlanta round-trip air fare were $350, should you use the coupon to go to Miami?
Answer:
You should use the discount coupon to pay for the Chicago-Miami trip. Not considering the personal motivations for the trip, the coupon is worth $500. The cost of flying is $600, so you will only pay $100 yourself. You will be spending $900 + $1000 = $1,000 in total.
The opportunity cost of using the coupon is $350 (the cost of the round trip to Atlanta). Even if you add the $350 to the $1,000 expense, the total is $1,350, less than your $1,400 maximum budget.

Transfers-In ____ Million
Transfers-Out ______ Million
Ending Balance _____ Million
Answer:
A. Transfer -In= $212,000,000
B. Transfer-Out = $159,000,000
C. Ending balance= $53,000,000
Explanation:
a) Calculation for Transfers-In
Transfer -In=$46,000,000 + $76,000,000 + (.90× $100,000,000)
Transfer -In=$46,000,000 + $76,000,000 + $90,000,000
Transfer -In= $212,000,000
b) Calculation for Transfer-Out
Transfer-Out=.75 × $212,000,000
Transfer-Out = $159,000,000
c) Calculation for the ending balance
Using this formula
Ending balance=Transfer -In-Transfer-Out
Let plug in the formula
Ending balance= $212,000,000 - $159,000,000 Ending balance= $53,000,000
Three different companies each purchased trucks on January 1, 2018, for $76,000. Each truck was expected to last four years or 250,000 miles. Salvage value was estimated to be $6,000. All three trucks were driven 81,000 miles in 2018, 55,000 miles in 2019, 46,000 miles in 2020, and 71,000 miles in 2021. Each of the three companies earned $65,000 of cash revenue during each of the four years. Company A uses straight-line depreciation, company B uses double-declining-balance depreciation, and company C uses units-of-production depreciation. Answer each of the following questions. Ignore the effects of income taxes.
Required:
a. Calculate the net income for 2021?
b. Which company will report the lowest amount of net income for 2021?

Net Income $47,500 27,000 $42,320
2019:
Net Income $47,500 46,000 $49,600
2020:
Net Income $47,500 55,500 $52,120
2021:
Net Income $47,500 61,500 $45,120
Retained earnings $190,000 $190,000 $189,160
f) Companies A and B will report the highest amount of retained earnings because C's units of production did not tally to 250,000.
Explanation:
Cost of Truck = $76,000
Lifespan = 4 years or 250,000 miles
Salvage value = $6,000
Depreciable amount = $70,000 ($76,000 - $6,000)
Straight-line rate = $17,500 ($70,000/4) or 25% (100/4) per year
Double-declining balance rate = 50% (100/4 * 2) on the book balance
Units of production rate = $0.28 ($70,000/250,000) per unit

Allen Air Conditioning manufactures room air conditioners at plants in Houston, Phoenix, and Memphis. These are sent to regional distributors in Dallas, Atlanta, and Denver. The shipping costs vary, and the company would like to find the least-cost way to meet the demands at each of the distribution centers. Dallas needs to receive 800 air conditioners per month, Atlanta needs 600, and Denver needs 200. Houston has 850 air conditioners available each month, Phoenix has 650, and Memphis has 300. The shipping cost per unit from Houston to Dallas is $8, to Atlanta $12, and to Denver $10. The cost per unit from Phoenix to Dallas is $10, to Atlanta $14, and to Denver $9. The cost per unit from Memphis to Dallas is $11, to Atlanta $8, and to Denver $12. 14700.
Required:
a. Based on the given demand and supply, the given transportation problem is ________
b. Before finding the initial solution, a dummy_____________ should be introduced.
c. The total cost of the optimal solution =____________
Answer:
(A) An optimization problem
(B) Variable
(C) $14,700
Explanation:
HOUSTON, PHOENIX, MEMPHIS ----- DALLAS, ATLANTA, DENVER
| | | | | |
850 650 300 800 600 200
Shipping Cost per Room Air Conditioner:
HOUSTON to Dallas - $8 [800 × 8 = $6400]
to Atlanta - $12 [50 × 12 = $600]
to Denver - $10
Total shipping cost = $7,000
PHOENIX to Dallas - $10
to Atlanta - $14 [250 × 14 = $3500]
to Denver - $9 [200 × 9 = $1800]
Total shipping cost = $5,300
MEMPHIS to Dallas - $11
to Atlanta - $8 [300 × 8 = $2400]
to Denver - $12
Total shipping cost = $2,400
The total cost of the optimal solution is:
7,000 + 5,300 + 2,400 = $14,700
How was this optimal cost gotten?
- Check the least shipping cost to Dallas, this is found in Houston and that's 8 dollars. Houston hence supplies Dallas 800 ACs and has 50 left. Remember this, in case you need more ACs.
- Check the least shipping cost to Atlanta, this is found in Memphis and that's 8 dollars. An obstruction here is that Memphis only has 300 ACs to send to Atlanta, so Atlanta needs 300 more. Keep this in mind.
- Check the least shipping cost to Denver, this is found in Phoenix and that's 9 dollars. Phoenix hence supplies Denver its needed 200 ACs and has 450 left.
- There is need to complete shipping to Atlanta and the next affordable shipping cost to Atlanta is found in Houston and that's $12. Houston should send its remaining 50 ACs to Atlanta.
- Atlanta needs 250 more ACs and Phoenix has 450 extra. Allen Air Conditioning Company can now settle for the relatively high shipping cost of Phoenix to Atlanta, to supply the remaining 250 ACs which Atlanta needs.
In an example, a local church is made up of people who are very different in their lifestyles and their stages of life. Mary is a 23-year-old single parent who earns the minimum wage. Jonathan is 60 years old, extremely wealthy, and works because he enjoys it. Jane is a 45-year-old lawyer who earns well and is well-respected in her profession. She is extremely career-oriented and is proud of her achievements. Which of the following do you think would motivate Jonathan the most?
a. safety
b. physiological
c. self-actualization
d. growth
e. esteem
Answer:
C) Self actualization
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed about example of alocal church is made up of people who are very different in their lifestyles and their stages of life, we are told if Mary who is is a 23-year-old single parent who earns the minimum wage. Jonathan is 60 years old, extremely wealthy, and works because he enjoys it. Jane is a 45-year-old lawyer who earns well and is well-respected in her profession. She is extremely career-oriented and is proud of her achievements.
In this case, self actualization would motivate Jonathan the most. This is because self actualization can be regarded as self fulfilment, it is when one fully realize his/her potential and gives appreciation, and here
Jonathan is 60 years old, and described as extremely wealthy, and works because he enjoys it. Hence self actualization is the best answer.
g after examining the various personal loan rates available to you, you find that you can borrow funds from a finance company at an APR of percent compounded or from a bank at an APR of percent compounded . Which alternative is more attractive? a. If you borrow $ from a finance company at an APR of percent compounded for year, how much do you need to payoff the loan?
question text WITH missing information:
After examining the various personal loan rates available to you, you find that you can borrow funds from a finance company at an APR of 12 percent compounded monthly or from a bank at an APR of 13 percent compounded annually. Which alternative is more attractive?
If you borrow $100 from a finance company at an APR of 9% percent compounded for year, how much do you need to payoff the loan?
Answer:
The finance company option is better as we are taking the loan we want the lower rate possible.
We need $109 to payoff the loan of $100 at 9% annualy after a whole year.
Explanation:
We solve for the effective rate of 12% compounded monthly
[tex](1+\frac{0.12}{12} )^{12}[/tex] = 1.12682503 = 0.126825 = 12.6825%
As this rate is lower than 13% this option is better
If we take 100 dollars after a year we have to pay:
$100 x (1 + r) = 100 x (1 + 0.09) = 100 x 1.09 = $109

--Dec 1st--
Explanation:
a) 111 millions shares x $0.50 = $55.5 millions
c)
111 millions x $18 per share x 6% = 119.88 millions
660,000 x $18 = 11.88 millions
net: 119.88 - 11.88 = 108 millons on shares
$108 millons / $18 per share = 6,000,000 shares
d)
111 + 6 new shares = 117 shares
$117 x $0.50 = $58.5 millons
f) 3-2 split gives 3 shares for every 2 shares
117 x 3/2 = 175.5 millons
175.5 millions x 0.35 per share = 61.425 million cash dividends
Gayne Corporation's contribution margin ratio is 18% and its fixed monthly expenses are $53,500. If the company's sales for a month are $318,000, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income? Assume that the fixed monthly expenses do not change.
Answer:
$3,740
Explanation:
The computation of net operating income is shown below:-
Contribution margin = Sales × CM ratio
= $318,000 × 18%
= $57,240
Net operating income = Contribution margin - fixed assets
= $57,240 - $53,300
= $3,740
So, we have applied the above formula.
Hence, the net operating income is $3,740 and the same is to be considered
Your boss would like your help on a marketing research project he is conducting on the relationship between the price of soup and the quantity of soup supplied. He hands you the following document:
Price of Soup Quantity of Soup Supplied
0.50 750
0.75 1,000
1.00 1,500
1.25 2,000
Your task is to take this blank and construct a graphical representation of the data. In doing so, you determine that as the price of soup rises, the quantity of soup supplied increases. This confirms the blank.
For both blanks, the choices are supply curve, quantity of soup supplied, supply schedule, and law of supply. I got law of supply for the first blank, and supply curve for the second blank and I wanted to make sure if I was correct.
Answer:
Your task is to take this supply schedule and construct a graphical representation of the data. In doing so, you determine that as the price of soup rises, the quantity of soup supplied increases. This confirms the law of supply.
Explanation:
We draw the supply curve being X-axis the quantity and Y-axis the Price.
The date to construct this representation is in the supply schedule.
This confirms the "law of supply" which states that as the price of a good icnrases the willingess to produce more units of that good increases as there is higher revenue.
If the college strictly enforces the rent ceiling of $250 a month, the on-campus housing market is
Answer: B. inefficient; the rent ceiling has no effect on the number of rooms rented
Explanation:
If the college strictly enforces the rent ceiling of $250 a month, the on-campus housing market is inefficient because the rent ceiling has no effect on the number of rooms rented.
An efficient market will see equilibrium supply meting equilibrium demand and this is not the case in this market because the supply seems to stay the same regardless of the demand.
This market is inefficient because supply does not react to the rent paid and is always the same. This is why a rent ceiling of $250 had no effect on the market in terms of supply. Efficient markets should see both supply and demand reacting to price so that a mutually beneficial equilibrium can be reached.

During November, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 26,000 units that were in process at the beginning of November and 120,000 units that were started and completed in November. November's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 45% complete with respect to conversion. At the end of November, 33,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 65% complete with respect to conversion.
Required:
Compute the number of equivalent units with respect to materials for November using the weighted-average method.
Answer:
Equivalent Units = 179,000
Explanation:
Number of units completed and transferred out = Units in beginning + Units started and completed during the month
= 26,000 + 120,000
= 146,000 units
Equivalent Units = Number of units completed and transferred out + (Additional units in process *Percentage completed)
= 146,000 + 33,000*100%
= 146,000 + 33,000
= 179,000
Therefore, the number of equivalent units using the weighted-average method is 179,000
when the business cycle or economic activity is declining the economy is said to be what
Answer:
Contraction
Explanation:
Contraction is when the level of economic activities in a country goes down. There is decreased productivity in the country, as indicated by a decline in the GDP value. At contraction, the economy will experience a drop in real incomes, retail sales, and industrial production. The unemployment rate begins to rise steadily as companies stop hiring while other lay-off workers due to reduced demand.
One year ago, Tyler Stasney founded Swift Classified Ads. Stasney remembers that you took an accounting course while in college and comes to you for advice. He wishes to know how much net income his business earned during the past year in order to decide whether to keep the company going. His accounting records consist of the T-accounts from his ledger, which were prepared by an accountant who moved to another city. The ledger at December 31 follows. The accounts have not been adjusted. Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded. During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount. Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies. Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year. At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.
Answer:
net income = $33,900
Explanation:
The T-accounts are missing, so I looked for a similar question:
Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded.
Dr Accounts receivable 1,600
Cr Service revenue 1,600
During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount.
Dr Unearned revenue 900
Cr Service revenue 900
Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies.
Dr Rent expense 2,400
Cr Prepaid rent 2,400
Dr Supplies expense 1,700
Cr Supplies 1,700
Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year.
Dr Depreciation expense 5,000
Cr Accumulated depreciation 5,000
At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.
Dr Wages expense 1,200
Cr Wages payable 1,200
Total expense for the year = $17,000 (paid wages) + $1,200 (accrued wages) + $800 (utilities) + $2,400 (rent) + $1,700 (supplies) + $5,000 (depreciation) = $28,100
total revenues = $59,500 (previously recorded) + $1,600 (unrecorded service revenue) + $900 (accrued service revenue) = $62,000
net income = $62,000 - $28,100 = $33,900

A small country is collecting more money than it spends. What is MOST likely the fiscal policy stance that this government takes?
expansionary stance
contractionary stance
economic stance
neutral stance
Answer:
Contractionary stance
Explanation:
When the government collects more extra money than it is spending, it signals a robust and fast-growing economy. Contractionary fiscal policy measures are applied to slow down growth and reduce inflationary pressure.
The contractionary fiscal policy is the government's mechanism of reducing the money supply in the economy. The government may reduce its spending in the economy, increase business taxes, or both. These actions decrease the money supply in the economy, which reduces the amount that businesses can borrow to expand. The objective is to lower the aggregate demand, thereby slowing the country's rate of producing new goods and services.
O’Hara Associates sells golf clubs, and with each sale of a full set of clubs provides complementary club-fitting services. A full set of clubs with the fitting services sells for $1,400. O’Hara estimates that it incurs $50 of staff compensation and other costs to provide the fitting services, and normally earns 20% over cost on similar services. Assuming that the golf clubs and the club-fitting services are separate performance obligations, estimate the stand-alone selling price of the club-fitting services using the expected cost plus margin approach.
Answer:
$60.00
Explanation:
Calculation to estimate the stand-alone selling price
Hara Amount $ Note
Staff compensation $50.00
Mark up % 20%
Mark up amount $10.00
(20%*$50)
Standalone selling price of club fitting services $60.00
($50.00+$10.00)
Therefore the estimated stand-alone selling price will be $60.00
The following expenditures were incurred by Tamarisk, Inc. in purchasing land: cash price $74,000, accrued taxes $4,400, attorneys’ fees $4,300, real estate broker’s commission $1,500, and clearing and grading $3,600. What is the cost of the land?
Answer:
$87,800
Explanation:
The following expenditures were incurred by Tamerisk incorporation when purchasing a land
Cash price = $74,000
Accured taxes = $4,400
Attorneys fee= $4,300
Real estate brokers commission = $1,500
Clearing and grading = $3,600
Therefore the cost of the land can be calculated as follows
= $74,000 + $4,400 + $4,300 + $1,500 + $3,600
= $87,800
Hence the cost of the land is $87,800
Sheridan Company pays all salaried employees on a biweekly basis. Overtime pay, however, is paid in the next biweekly period. Sheridan accrues salaries expense only at its December 31 year end. Data relating to salaries earned in December 2020 are as follows: Last payroll was paid on 12/26/20, for the 2-week period ended 12/26/20. Overtime pay earned in the 2-week period ended 12/26/20 was $24000. Remaining work days in 2020 were December 29, 30, 31, on which days there was no overtime. The recurring biweekly salaries total $444000.
Assuming a five-day workweek, Sheridan should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries of:_________.
a. $266400
b. $290400
c. $133200
d. $157200
Answer:
d. $157,200
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount that Sheridan should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries
Liability for accrued salary=$24,000 + ($444,000 ÷ 10 days × 3)
Liability for accrued salary=$24,000+$133,200
Liability for accrued salary= $157,200
Therefore the amount that Sheridan should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries will be $157,200

Last month Dexter Company had a $11,780 loss on sales of $164,000. Fixed costs are $62,620 a month. By how much do sales have to increase for Dexter to break even
Answer:
$38,000
Explanation:
Calculation for how much do sales have to increase for Dexter to break even
First step is to find the contribution margin ratio
Contribution margin ratio = ($62,620 - $11,780)/$164,000 = 30%
Contribution margin ratio =$50,840/$164,000
Contribution margin ratio=31%
Second step is to find the Break even sales Break even sales=$62,620/0.31
Break even sales=$202,000
Last step is to find the increase in sales
Sales must increase =$202,000 - $164,000
Sales must increase = $38,000
Therefore the amount that sales have to increase for Dexter to break even will be $38,000
Consider the experiments. Experiment 1: A study is done to determine which of two fuel mixtures allows a rocket to travel farther over a period of time. Rocket A, which requires additional equipment to keep it stable, is used to test one fuel mixture, and rocket B is used to test the other. Both rockets are identical aside from their mass. The results indicate that rocket B traveled farther than rocket A over the same period of time. Experiment 2: A double-blind experiment is performed to test whether a new drug is effective in lowering blood pressure. A random sample of subjects with high blood pressure is assigned to two groups. One group receives the new drug and the other group does not. Neither group is permitted to take any other medications during the experiment or to change their lifestyles in any way. The results of the experiment show that the drug is effective in lowering blood pressure.
Identify the experiment in which confounding occurs and the reason for its occurrence.
a. Neither experiment has a confounding variable.
b. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the fuel mixtures. Varying the fuel mixture could skew the results of the study and should be kept constant.
c. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the type of experiment. A double-blind experiment may increase the risk of the placebo effect and possibly skew the results.
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
e. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the subjects used. Choosing a sample of subjects with high blood pressure instead of individuals with different blood pressure levels may confuse the results.
Answer:
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
Explanation:
Both experiments have confounding variables. But the reasons given for the occurrence of the confounder in experiment 2 do not justify (c) and (e) as correct answers. By definition, confounders are factors other than the independent variable that cause differences in outcome. For experiment 1, the different masses of the two rockets affect the independent variable (fuel mixture) being studied, and actually cause the discrepancy in the distance traveled as indicated in answer (d). Other examples of confounders are placebo, weather, age, and experimenter bias which a double-blind can eliminate.
On July 1, 2020, Buffalo Inc. made two sales.
1. It sold land having a fair value of $904,290 in exchange for a 4-year zero-interest-bearing promissory note in the face amount of $1,422,914. The land is carried on Buffalo's books at a cost of $591,300.
2. It rendered services in exchange for a 3%, 8-year promissory note having a face value of $408,830 (interest payable annually).
Buffalo Inc. recently had to pay 8% interest for money that it borrowed from British National Bank. The customers in these two transactions have credit ratings that require them to borrow money at 12% interest.
Required:
Record the two journal entries that should be recorded by Vaughn Inc. for the sales transactions above that took place on July 1, 2020.
Answer:

Sale of land on credit :
De-recognise the Land in Buffalo Inc. books at cost, Recognise the Assets of Note Receivable and a Profit from sale. Proceeds are measured at the future value
Future Value :
PV = $1,422,914
n = 4
pmt = $0
p/yr = 1
fv = ?
Using a financial calculator the future value is $1,422,914.
Journal 2
Rendered Services on credit :
Recognize the Assets of Note Receivable and Recognise the Revenue at the future value.
Future Value :
pv = - $408,830
n = 8
pmt = 3% × $408,830 = $12,264.90
i = 12%

20. The consumer price index was 120 in 2013 and 126 in 2014. The nominal interest rate during this period was 8 percent. What was the real interest rate during this period? A) 3 percent B) 2 percent C) 3.3 percent D) 5.2 percent E) 12.8 percent
Answer: 3%
Explanation:
To calculate the real interest rate, it should be noted that the inflation rate is needed and this can be calculated using the consumer price index as:
= [(126-120)/120] × 100
= 6/120 × 100
= 5%
Real interest rate will now be:
= Nominal Rate - Inflation Rate
= 8% - 5%
= 3%
For a program to be successful, readiness for training should be assessed on two dimensions: employee characteristics and work environment. The employee characteristics that are relevant to training are the ability to learn the subject matter, attitudes toward training, and motivation to learn. Even if these are present, however, training will not be effective unless there is a positive work environment—an environment that encourages learning and eliminates obstacles for trainee success.
An important characteristic of employee readiness is having basic learning skills, especially cognitive ability that includes using written and spoken language, solving math problems, and using logic to solve problems. If employees lack certain basic skills, they may have to attend some remedial classes before participating in job-related training. Seeing potential benefits from training programs may increase employee motivation to participate. Readiness for training also depends on work environment characteristics called situational constraints and social support. Constraints can include the limits of training's effectiveness from within the organization, such as lack of money or lack of time for training and practicing. Social support refers to the ways that the organization encourages training by expressing positive attitudes toward its training programs. The goal of this activity is to evaluate employee readiness for training.
Read each statement, then select the appropriate category
1. When new employees arrive on the sales floor after training at Hamilton Department Store, experienced employees have a tendency. Forget what you learned. This is how we really do it.
2. Time and again, Brooke's employees complained that the statistical quality control training was too difficult to be useful.
3. As much as she would like to. Elizabeth really doesn't think top management is going to allocate enough money to train everyone on the new software this year.
4. Although Jane really wanted to participate in the diversity training program, she knew it was impossible to get away from the office for three days in order to participate.
5. Ed was excited to hear about the new technical training program, but disappointed when he heard his boss say that he really didn't think the training was the time and effort
a. Social Support
b. Situational Constraints
c. Employee Readiness
Answer:
1.
by asking new employees to unlearn the theories they have so that they can learn on the job, these experienced employees are getting the new ones ready to start applying concepts. this shows social support from the old employees to the new ones
2.
these complaints by Brooke's employees shows employee readiness because the complaints are basically about not being able to find their way around around the training since they say it is too difficult.
3.
this is situational constraints as the question implies a constraint in funds available to train all employees on the new software. and it is causing an issue In getting all employees trained.
4.
this is situational constraint and time is the constraint. elizabeth though ready does not have the time for the training.
5. this is social support. ed's manager has caused him to reevaluate on this training because in his opinion it would be like a waste of time and effort.
