Dave and Andy are competitors in a local market. Each is trying to decide if it is better to advertise on TV, on radio, or not at all. If they both advertise on TV, each will earn a profit of $4,000. If they both advertise on radio, each will earn a profit of $7,000. If neither advertises at all, each will earn a profit of $10,000. If one advertises on TV and other advertises on radio, then the one advertising on TV will earn $6,000 and the other will earn $5,000. If one advertises on TV and the other does not advertise, then the one advertising on TV will earn $11,000 and the other will earn $2,000. If one advertises on radio and the other does not advertise, then the one advertising on radio will earn $12,000 and the other will earn $4,000. If both follow their dominant strategy, how much will Dave earn

The hawthorne works was a large western electric factory with 45,000 employees. during the 1920s and 1930s, hawthorne works was the site of some well-known industrial studies. in one of the studies, researchers investigated the impact of different working conditions on worker productivity. prior to the start of the study, researchers secretly measured workers' productivity for several weeks. then researchers chose two workers, who then chose their own teams. the teams were separated from the general workforce and completed their work in different experiment rooms where the researchers could observe them more easily. over a 5-year period researchers manipulated the structure of the workday for each team (number and duration of breaks and number of hours per shift). for each of these changes in working conditions, the researchers measured the effect on productivity. for some conditions, such as frequent short breaks, workers rebelled by intentionally decreasing productivity.why did the researchers secretly measure the workers' productivity before creating the two treatment groups? a, to create similar treatment groups so that a cause-and-effect relationship could be establishedb, to draw conclusions about the productivity of all workers in the plant based on the test groupsc, to directly control for confounding variablesd, to provide a baseline for measuring worker productivity

Norton manufacturing expects to produce 2,900 units in january and 3,600 units in february. norton budgets $20 per unit for direct materials. indirect materials are insignificant and not considered for budgeting purposes. the balance in the raw materials inventory account (all direct materials) on january 1 is $38,650. norton desires the ending balance in raw materials inventory to be 10% of the next month's direct materials needed for production. desired ending balance for february is $51,100. what is the cost of budgeted purchases of direct materials needed for january? $58,000 $65,200 $26,550 $25,150
