Answer:

a. Sales promotions have increased because of competition in emerging markets.

Explanation:

Competition in emerging markets is irrelevant for sales promotions. If you are present in a particular market, competition in other markets won't affect the efficiency of your sales promotions.

On the other hand, other statements are correct. Sales promotions are a great tool to hinder consumer price resistance, as they emphasize the benefits of the product and make the whole promotion more convincing.

Technology upgrades vastly affect and improve sales promotions (use of AR/VR in promotions, media, AI...). The wider market of ad agencies gives companies a better choice (with a more competitive price) of agencies that will conduct the sales promotions.

Answer:

Kingbird Company

a. The amount of Net Sales = $5,040.

b. The amount of the estimated liability for refunds = $180

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Units of products sold to Logan Inc. = 290

Selling price = $18

Sales revenue = $5,220 ($18 * 290)

Cost of each unit = $11

Expected returns = 10/290 = 0.03448

Net sales = $5,220 * (1 - 0.03448)

= $5,040

Estimated liability for refunds = $180 ($5,220 - $5,040)

In a make-to-order system, when a customer places a request for a product or service with a producer,

Mashutka [201]

A work order is created as soon as the customer places the request for a product or service. Since the manufacturing or the creation of the item begins only after order is made, all the resources and the raw materials should be in place well before time.

Julli [10]

Answer:

d. backorder

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the sales associate most likely offered to backorder the item for Linda. This is when a retailer places an order for a product that is no longer in stock for the time being, in order to comply with the customer, but will take a while for that order to come in and for the transaction to be completed.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

A1 = $12 A2 = $9.20 A3 = $1.50
Total Overhead for Standart Product $267.16
Total Overhead for Deluxe Product $163.48

Explanation:

First we will Calculate the rates:

This is done by adding the two product activity use to get the total cost driver.

Then we divide by the activity cost to get the rate:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}activity&cost&driver&rate\\1&93,000&7,750&12\\2&92,000&10,000&9,2\\3&8,700&5,800&1,5\\\end{array}\right]$

Next we check the overhead per unit:

units/ activity use x rate = overhead for activity

Standart Product Manufacturing Overhead

36,375units /2,500 Use Activity 1 x $12 = $174.60

36,375units /4,500 Use Activity 2 x $9.20 = $74.37

36,375units /3,000 Use Activity 3 x $1.50= $18.19

Total Overhead for Standart Product $267.16

Deluxe Product Manufacturing Overhead

62,240units /5,250 Use Activity 1 x $12 = $83,14

62,240units /5,500 Use Activity 2 x $9.20 = $60,85

62,240units /2,800 Use Activity 3 x $1.50= $19,49

Total Overhead for Deluxe Product $163.48
