Answer:
I think Sears need to stop diversifying its product too much and focus on improving internal human resources.
Explanation:
The largest expense that Sears made occurred during their effort to add more female customers to shop at their place.
Sears was known for its DieHard, Craftsman and Kenmore brands that attract mostly male customers to their stores. They started “The Softer Side of Sears” which focused on adding more products for female customers.
But, in the process of doing so, Sears neglected their already successful male products department with a lot of employees who sacrifice a lot of their time and effort into making Sears as big as it is.
In order to restore to its former glory, Sears need to stop focusing on new market with a lot of strong competitors and focused on improving skill set of employees in their successful department. They can do this by investing in their education, increasing the budget for their research and development, etc.
Answer: Demand is elastic
Explanation:
Total revenue from the sale of a good is negatively related to the price when demand for the good is elastic and positively related to the price when demand for the good is inelastic.
So, as increase in price by 48% decreases total revenue by 61%, therefore the demand for Ruko, a device used to stream movies at home is elastic.

Answer:
$225,000
Explanation:
Federal corporate income tax (21% flat rate)
$1,000,000 x 21% = $210,000
Federal dividend tax (15%).
$100,000 x 15% = $15,000
Dividens are neither expenses nor deductible, so they do not reduce the amount of corporate taxable income. Therefore we must add up the two quantities.
$210,000 + $15,000 = $225,000
