Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": actual activity closely approximates the master budget activity.

Explanation:

A static budget includes projected values of inputs and outputs conceived before a company period begins. It estimates revenue and expenditure over a particular period which keeps the same with changes in business activity.

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

$23.44

Explanation:

The computation of profit charge per unit for earning same annual profit is shown below:

Given that

No of Units Sold = 12,000

Sale Price of each Unit = $21.45

Variable Cost = 11.50

So,

Contribution Per Unit is

= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

= $21.45 - $11.50

= $9.95

So,

Total Contribution is

= 12,000 units × $9.95

= $119,400

And,

Fixed Costs for the year is $60,000

So, the Profit for the year is

= Contribution margin - fixed cost

= $119,400 - $60,000

= $59,400

Now If the demand for the product falls to 10,000 Unit

So we assume Number of units expected to be sold is10,000

Since Variable cost Per Unit is 11.50

So, the Total Variable Cost is

= 10,000 units × $11.50

= $115,000

And,

Fixed Cost per annum $60,000

Expected Profit $59,400

So, the total amount is

= $115,000 + $60,000 + $59,400

= $234,400

So, the price per unit charged is

= $234,400 ÷ 10,000 units

= $23.44

dusya [7]

Answer:

Many managers today are trained under assumptions of adversarial relationships with other companies. It is very much difficult operating as adversaries as compared to be partners with other companies. It has been seen that when two or more than two companies partnered with one another, then they can perform much better as compared to the situation when they compete head to head. Joining hands with other companies can give you certain sustainable competitive advantage which can never be easily imitated and copied by your competitors. When you pool your resources and share technology and risks and sell your products/services together which is quite helpful for the both companies. For example, when Dell and intel processors share their resources and sell them together, both can have tremendous sales and market share. It can be very helpful and effective for both of the organization. One company can leverage its products and sales with the help of another company. In this strategy of becoming partner, strategic alliance between both organization can get stronger hold in the market with more and enhanced brand awareness, sales and profits as well, therefore, managers can work best when they for making partners instead of rivalry.
