Resource: “Over 30 Workers Trapped After Chilean Copper Mine Collapse” article.

Research additional articles and information about the Chilean mine collapse.

Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper using this and other articles as a resource. Because communications must be designed with the audience in mind, address the following questions within your paper:

    • What would be the potential needs of the trapped miners’ families in receiving a message about this incident?
    • What would be the potential needs of the rest of the company’s employees when receiving a message about their trapped coworkers?
    • What actions must you take before and after the message is delivered to ensure that it was received as intended?

Within the paper, include two communication drafts as if they are from the President of the mining company announcing the accident, using what you have learned about audience and effective messages. One communication draft should be directed to the families of the trapped miners and the other should be an internal update to the company’s employees. For both, identify the most appropriate channel—face-to-face, e-mail, video, memo, and so on.

The two communication drafts can be included in the middle or end of the paper and are included in the 700- to 1,050-word requirement.

Required:

  1. Management believes it can sell a new product for $250. The fixed costs of production are estimated to be $50,000 and the variable costs are $215 a unit for the first scale of operations. The fixed costs of production are estimated to be at $150,000 and variable costs are $170 a unit for the second scale of operations.
    1. Prepare a table similar to the one below and complete with the given levels of output and the relationships between quantity and fixed cost, quantity and variable costs, and quantity and total costs.

First Scale of operations

    1. What is the exact break-even number of units sold for each scale of operations?
    2. Assume that ½ of the fixed costs in each scale of operations is non-cash depreciation. What is the cash flow generated by each scale of operations if 1,000 of units are sold?
    3. You have been asked to advise the management of this company on which scale of production to use.  Let us assume that the management is uncertain on how many units they can sell, but estimate it will be between 500 and 3,000 units during the first year and progressively more after that.  Please advise management what you learned from the breakeven analysis and the tables that you devised that should help them make up their minds. Give them pros and cons for both alternatives.
  1. The management of a firm wants to introduce a new product. The product will sell for $15.00 a unit and can be produced by either of two scales of operation. Following are the total costs:

First scale of operation
TC = $20,000 + $10.00Q

Second scale of operation
TC = $40,000 + $5.00Q

Following are the anticipated levels of sales:

Year

Unit Sales

1

3,000

2

3,500

3

4,000

4

5,000

What can management expect for profits or losses in years 1 and 2 if it selects the scale of operations with lower fixed costs? On what grounds can management justify selecting this scale of operation? If sales reach 5,000 a year, which is the correct scale of operation?

  1. You have been asked to rank the payback periods of three investments for a business. They each cost $35,000.

Rank the investments based on payback period. Would you rank them as investments in that order? Why or why not? See the table above for the cash flows of each.

  1. Given the following information answer the following questions:

TR = $3Q

TC = $1,500 + $2Q

  1. What is the break even level of output?
  2. If the firm sells 1,300 units, what are the firm’s earnings or losses?
  3. If sales rise to 2,000 units, what are the firms earnings or losses?
  4. What happens to the breakeven level of output units if the total cost equation were: TC = $2,000 + $1.80Q

Need help with some Economics Final Questions about Module 5

/in /by

According to your readings, and from what you have learned in Module 5, how could war stimulate the economy? Explain in detail, making sure to mention the impact government purchases have on Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Also, make sure you make mention of how government purchases affect the private sector. Finally, describe how government purchases, in your opinion, have helped to stimulate or hinder the U.S. economy. You must provide sound economic analysis in your answer.

2.Do you think the government, using both fiscal policy and monetary policy, faces any trade-offs in trying to control for inflation vs. unemployment. What do you believe is more of a problem towards long-term economic growth: persistent inflation or unemployment? Make sure to use your readings and what you learned in the modules to justify your arguments.

3.According to your readings, it will always make economic sense for you to start a business if your business can make economic profit. How does economic profit differ from accounting profit? Have you ever considered starting a business? If you were to start your own business someday, describe the revenues and costs you would consider (make sure you are describing economic profit in your analysis). 

4.Suppose you wanted to open a new business in your hometown. Based on what you learned about the different market structures:

a.Describe your business (the product or service, the ideal size of your firm, the requirements needed to enter this market, etc.).

b.Describe the market you would operate in, making sure to detail the characteristics of the market structure and also the opportunities and challenges you might face.

5.As noted in the video Stalag 17 and in your readings, many things have been used as money over time: cigarettes, gold, paper currency (like the U.S. dollar), etc. Describe the functions of money and consider the U.S. dollar as an example. Although the U.S. dollar has little or no intrinsic value, why do people want it so much? Can you think of other examples of things that act as “money” in our society?
