Hello!

The term "differentiation" refers to what sellers do to make their products different, or stand out, from competing products.

A few forms of differentiation are through:

- Pricing (more expensive or less expensive than competitors)

- Form (size, shape, structure, etc.)

- Performance (performing better or more efficiently than competitors)

- Reliability (lasting longer than competing products)

For example, Tesla differentiates itself through offering appealing (stylish) electric cars that are energy-saving and more efficient than other electric vehicles. Pricing is also reasonable for what the company offers, but expensive relative to most common gas-powered cars.

I hope this helps you! Have a lovely day!

solong [7]

Answer:

1) net cash flow from financing activities:

Dividends paid ($2,000,000)

Net cash flow from financing activities ($2,000,000)

No new stocks were issued, nor any new long term debt was taken.

2) total increase in cash from 2013 to 2014 was $50,000,000

there are two ways to calculate this:

ending balance of cash account 2014 - ending balance of cash account 2013 = $100 - $50 = $50 million

cash flow from operating activities = $52 + $$50 + $100 - $100 - $50 = $54

cash flow from investing activities = $0

cash flow from financing activities ($2)

net cash increase = $50 million

Explanation:

On December 1, 2018, your company borrowed $15,000, a portion of which is to be repaid each year on November 30. Specifically, y

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The loan will be reported in the December 31, 2019 and 2018, balance sheets, is shown below:-

Balance sheet(Partial)

As of December 31

2016 2015

Current liabilities

Current portion of long term debt $3,000 $2,000

Long term liabilities

Long term debt $10,000 $13,000

Total liabilities $13,000 $15,000

On December 2018 we represent the current liability of $2,000 loan because of year 31 December 2019 within of one year and the left portion of the loan represent as long term liability because it is not within one year from the balance sheet.

On December 2019 Loan remains outstanding $13,000 ($2,000 repaid on November 2019) from this amount, on November 30, $3,000 is due. So, $3,000 should be represented as current liability and the left balance $10,000 represented as long term debt.

Executive orders 12674 and 12731 form the foundation policy on the ethical conduct of Federal Employees

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: a. Making authorized commitments

Explanation:

Executive Orders 12674 and 12731 (which amended 12674) of 1989 and 1990 respectively, were signed by President Bush with the purpose of setting forth the principles of ethical conduct that were required of Federal Government Officers and Employees.

These principles were meant to ensure that government officials and employees abstained from Abuse of power whilst working in such a way as not to bring disrepute to the Federal Government.

All of the above are violations of the Order except option A which is stated in Part I Section 101 (f) of Executive Order 12674. It reads that, "Employees shall make no unauthorized statements..." thus insinuating that employees are allowed to make Authorized statements.

True or false?

Sidana [21]

Answer:

The statement is: True.

Explanation:

If we have been given an assignment, it is important to set a schedule of activities to ensure that the final form of our work is delivered on or before the due date, if possible. In the way, there could be problems of various types -for example, technology when delivering a report- that could interrupt our work. Therefore, it is important to consider those risks while scheduling so that we have a contingency plan that will not impact our research and the date we will deliver it.
