Answer:
The correct answer is option E (diversity in teams is beneficial because it provides for a larger pool of knowledge from which a team can draw as it carries out its work).
Explanation:
Diversity in an organization/team is broad in its definition as it describes a group of individuals who are from different backgrounds, races, ages, education working for a common goal.
When we talk about surface-level diversity, then we are pointing at those visible differences such as sex, age. While Deep-level diversity is those characters that are not visible such as beliefs, likes, dislikes, temperament.
Diversity in teams is beneficial because team members would have diverse backgrounds, experiences, problem-solving capacities, exposures, bringing diverse solutions to the team which leads to good team performance, and a quick, better solution to problems.
Answer:
Lerner index for Botox = 0.9
Explanation:
The Lerner index measures market power in an industry. The formula for calculating the Lerner index is: L = (P - MC) / P
Lerner index for Botox = ($15 - $1.50) / $15 = 0.9
0.9 in the Lerner index means that a company has a very large market power. Under this situation, this is quite logical since Allergen has a monopoly on Botox, at least until the patent expires.
The Lerner index varies between 0 and 1, with 0 being a situation of perfect competition and 1 a monopolistic situation.
Answer: The correct answer is "d. equal to average cost, including the opportunity cost of capital.".
Explanation: In the long run the prices charged by a firm in monopolistic competition will be equal to average cost, including the opportunity cost of capital.
In long-term monopolistic competition, the demand curve will be tangent to the average long-term cost and the price set at this level. The benefits will be equal to zero and therefore there will be no entry or exit of companies.
Answer:
(Decrease, Increase)
Explanation:
When the government formulates and implements policies aimed at increasing equality, the society will experience a reduction in the level of efficiency. For example, an increase in income tax on wealthiest Americans, and redistribution of the tax revenue to the poorest Americans would may discourage the wealthy from taking more income-generating activities which create jobs, this is not optimal. At the same time, this policy would reduces the peoples’ incentive to work hard to earn their own money.
