Resources fall broadly into two categories: tangible and intangible. Tangible resources have physical attributes and are visible. Intangible resources have no physical attributes and thus are invisible. Examples of intangible resources are a firm's culture, its knowledge, brand equity, and reputation.
1. Which of the following is an example of an intangible resource?Multiple Choice:A) equipmentB) copyrightC) cashD) landE) inventory

Answer:

copyright.

Explanation:

Intangible resource do not have any physical attributes and therefore are invisible, can not be seen but can only be felt. Accordingly, from the choices provided, equipment, cash, land and inventory are all physical resources and hence are called tangible resources. Only copyright fall under intangible resource. Hence the correct answer is copyright.

Answer:

B) copyright

Explanation:

Intangible Resource is the intangible assets which we can’t touch this resource and can’t see or intangible in nature. Intangible resource does not have in physical form. We can only feel that. Intangible Resource is necessary for any business.

So according to the analysis, option (B) is the correct example of intangible resources.  

We can’t see copyright we just feel it. Copyright also don’t have a physical attribute but the other options have i.e current assets, fixed assets

Businesses, individuals, and governments often need to raise capital, while others have surplus funds. In a well-functioning economy, capital flows efficiently from those with surplus capital to those who need it. Transfers can take place in 3 ways (indirect, direct) transfers without going through any type of financial institution, (indirect, direct) transfers through investment banks that underwrite the securities, and indirect transfers through financial (agencies, intermediaries, funds) that create new forms of capital.

In recent years, banks have encouraged their customers to save by giving incentives to join programs that automatically transfer money from checking accounts to savings accounts. For example, a bank might offer to round debit transactions to the nearest dollar, transferring the change to one's savings account, and then boost this amount with a match of a certain amount. Although these programs were intended to encourage customers to save, some economists are not very enthusiastic about these programs. Which of these describe why the economists would be concerned? a. Economists fear that saving money would trigger consumers to spend more in the near future. b. The program was offered during an expansionary time period; consumers were not worried about saving their money. c. Some economists believe the automatic transfers could lead to overdrafts. d. Economists believe consumers would not be willing to transfer the money from their checking account to their savings account.

Joe has just moved to a small town with only one golf​ course, the Northlands Golf Club. His inverse demand function is pequals200minus2​q, where q is the number of rounds of golf that he plays per year. The manager of the Northlands Club negotiates separately with each person who joins the club and can therefore charge individual prices. This manager has a good idea of what​ Joe's demand curve is and offers Joe a special​ deal, where Joe pays an annual membership fee and can play as many rounds as he wants at ​$40​, which is the marginal cost his round imposes on the Club. What membership fee would maximize profit for the​ Club? The manager could have charged Joe a single price per round. How much extra profit does the Club earn by using​ two-part pricing? The​ profit-maximizing membership fee​ (F) is ​$ nothing. ​(Enter your response as a whole​ number.)

Carns Company is considering eliminating its small tools division, which reported an operating loss for the recent year of $85,000. Division sales for the year were $1,310,000 and its variable costs were $1,175,000. The fixed costs of the division were $220,000. If the kitchen division is dropped, 45% of the fixed costs allocated it could be eliminated. The impact on Carns’s operating income from eliminating the small tools division would be:

If she were to make no additional deposits or withdrawals, how much money would the credit union owe Heather in 13 years? $1,882.93 $3,865.80 $266.60 $5,731.65

Bob is a recognized french horn player. Bob has played for several major symphonies. Last year Bob went through bankruptcy and in order to pay his rent for a couple of months took out loans from a small bank - Avarice Bank - and pledged his french horn as collateral. He was unable to make the first payment on the loan so the bank was getting ready to take the french horn for non-payment. Bob approached the director of the Gilroy Philarmonic International Symphony - Joe - for help - asking him to guarantee payment so he does not lose his french horn. Joe agreed to guarantee the payment - partially because Bob is scheduled as the featured performer at the Classic Polka Festival in Gilroy which Joe manages. Joe called Avarice Bank and said if Bob could not pay, he would, and Avarice accepted his guaranty by phone. Bob played for the Polka Festival (it was very successful), but immediately after, left town and his whereabouts are unknown. Avarice has contacted Joe and indicated they have not collected from Bob and they expect Joe to pay the debt. Joe told Avarice they did not have anything in writing from him (though there are witnesses who heard Joe guarantee payment) and he believes he will not be liable for Bob's debt. Avarice has indicated it will file suit for payment against Joe. I

With milk sales sagging of late, The Milk Processor Education Program (MPEP) decided to move on from the famous "Got Milk" ad slogan in favor of a new one, "Milk Life." The new tagline emphasizes milk's nutritional benefits, including its protein content.
MPEP began collecting data on the number of gallons of milk households consumed weekly (in millions), weekly price per gallon, and weekly expenditures on milk advertising (in hundreds of dollars) for the period following the launch of the new campaign. These data, in forms to estimate both a linear model and log-linear model, are available via the link below. Use these data to perform two regressions; a linear regression and a log-linear regression.
Suppose that the weekly price of milk is $3.40 per gallon and MPEP decides to ramp up weekly advertising by 35 percent to $150 (in hundreds). Use the best-fitting regression model to estimate the weekly quantity of milk consumed after this advertising increase.
