Which of the following is the most important competitive factor in determining a company's ability to secure contracts to supply

Bogdan [553]

The company's price offer is the most important competitive factor in determining a company's ability to secure contracts to supply private-label footwear to large multi-outlet retailers of athletic footwear in a particular geographic region.

The S/Q ratings of both branded and private-label footwear manufactured at each production plant can be raised through TQM/Six Sigma quality control systems and best practices training.

Five things affect the S/Q rating: The following factors should be taken into account: (1) current-year spending per footwear model for new features and styling; (2) the percentage of superior materials used; (3) current-year expenditures for Total Quality Management (TQM) and/or Six Sigma quality control programs; (4) cumulative expenditures for TQM/Six Sigma quality control efforts (to reflect learning and experience curve effects); and (5) current-year and cumulative expenditures to train employees in using the best practices to assemble athletic footwear.

Rick deposited $3,100 into an account 13 years ago for an emergency fund. Today, that account is worth $5,280. What annual rate

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

4.18%

Explanation:

The formula for used for this calculation is given as

Future value = Present( Initial) value (1 + r)ⁿ

Where n = number of years of the investment = 13 years

Future value (Amount of the investment after 13 years)= $5,280

Present ( Initial) value (Amount of the investment before 13 years) = $3,100

r = rate of return

The formula for r is derived as:

r = (Future value/ Present (initial) value)¹/ⁿ- 1

r = ($5,280/$3,100)¹/¹³ - 1

r = 1.0418139573 - 1

r = 0.0418139573

r is always in percentage format

r = 0.0418139573 × 100

r= 4.18139573%

Approximately, the rate of return annually for 13 years = 4.18%

A company currently pays a dividend of $2.8 per share (D0 = $2.8). It is estimated that the company's dividend will grow at a ra

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Intrinsic value: 53.41 dollars

Explanation:

First, we use the CAPM model to know the value of the stock

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free 0.085

premium market =(market rate - risk free) = 0.045

beta(non diversifiable risk) 1.3

$Ke= 0.085 + 1.3 (0.045)$

Ke 0.14350

Now we need to know the present value of the future dividends:

D0 = 2.8

D1 = D0 x (1+g) = 2.8 * 1.23 = 3.444

D2 3.444 x 1.23 = 4.2361200

The next dividends, which are at perpetuity will we solve using the dividned grow model:

$\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value$

In this case dividends will be:

4.23612 x 1.07 = 4.5326484

return will be how return given by CAPM and g = 7%

plug this into the Dividend grow model.

$\frac{4.5326484}{0.1435 - 0.07} = Intrinsic \: Value$

value of the dividends at perpetity: 61.6686857

FInally is important to note this values are calculate in their current year. We must bring them to present day using the present value of a lump sum:

$\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

$\frac{3.444}{(1 + 0.1435)^{1} } = PV$

3.011805859

$\frac{4.23612}{(1 + 0.1435)^{2} } = PV$

3.239633762

$\frac{61.6686857}{(1 + 0.1435)^{2}} = PV$

47.16201531

We add them and get the value of the stock:

53.413455

What is the key idea in the aggregate expenditure macroeconomic model? The key idea in the aggregate expenditure model is that

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

A) in any particular year, the level of GDP is determined mainly by the level of aggregate expenditure.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the aggregate expenditure (AE) of an economy is the same used to calculate the gross domestic product:

Aggregate expenditures = consumption + investment + government + net exports (exports - imports)

The main difference between the GDP ans AE is that AE measures the planned consumption, the planned investment, the planned government expenses and the planned net exports.

he equation is: AE = C + I + G + NX. The aggregate expenditure determines the total amount that firms and households plan to spend on goods and services at each level of income.
