The answer for this question would then be c. Hope it helps!
Transportation costs
can make exporting an inappropriate strategy.
<span>If a product is bulky or heavy, because
of its weight or mass the transportation costs will obviously increase and make it more expensive, and
unless the product carries an extraordinary high value-to-weight ratio the
exporting strategy will be considered the least effective.</span>
Answer:
$33,700 (Favorable)
Explanation:
Note: Figures are not inputted. The missing figures have been figured out as below.
"<em>Nexus industries uses a standard costing system to apply manufacturing costs to its production process. In May nexus anticipated 2700 units with fixed manufacturing overhead costs allocated at $8.40 per direct labor hour with a standard of 2.5 direct labor hours per unit. In May, actual production was 3400 units and actual fixed manufacturing overhead cost were $23000. What was nexus fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance in May</em>?"
Solution:
Budgeted fixed overhead costs = Units * Direct labor cost * Standard Direct Labor hours per unit
= 2,700 units * $8.40 * 2.5
= 2,700 units * 21
= $56,700
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance = Actual fixed overhead cost - Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead costs
When Actual fixed overhead = $23,000
, Budgeted fixed overhead costs = $56,700
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance = $23,000 - $56,700
= $33,700 (Favorable)
.
The answer should be two or more and central
Suppose that Ray-Ban is considering a new line of sunglasses that would be sold in major department
stores. The new line would be positioned as a more distinctive brand than the typical glasses sold
through department stores, and would be priced higher than other brands in the store, but a lower price
line than the current Ray-Ban lines that are sold through more selective stores. In determining the price
for this sunglass line, Ray-Ban wants to gather information about all brands sold in department stores
<span>and about customers' perceptions of those brands.
</span><span>Given Ray-Ban's plan for positioning the new sunglass line, they should use a <span>price skimming strategy when introducing their new product.
</span></span><span>Price skimming is a pricing strategy in which a marketer sets a relatively high initial price for a product or service at first, then lowers the price over time. It is a temporal version of price discrimination/yield management.</span>
