Answer:

A) rivalry among existing competitors

Explanation:

Since Barb chooses to go to Payless Shoes to purchase her children's shoes rather than shopping at another shoe seller Zappos.com,  this is an example of rivalry among existing competitors .

In Porters' five forces, Competitive rivalry measures the extent of competition between existing firms. This rivalry can trigger price wars (including price cutting) which result in limitation of profits. It also involves increased advertising costs, higher research and development on service/product improvements and innovation, etc.

Exceptionally large harvests of wheat or corn often result in farmers having lower total incomes for that season despite the inc
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

A. The demand of wheat and corn is basically inelastic and so increases in output drastically reduce price and income to the farmers.

Explanation:

Inelastic demand means the change in price does not affect the purchasers' buying power. The difference in price has relatively little effect on the quantity demanded.  Since the demand for wheat is inelastic, price and income will reduce irrespective of increasing production. Therefore, harvesting massive production (wheat or corn) does not bring a high income.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(A) 18,600 units

(B) 13,821 units

Explanation:

(A) The computation of the equivalent unit for material cost is shown below:

= (Completed and transferred units × completed percentage) + (ending work in progress units × completed percentage)

= (10,500 units × 100%) + (8,100 units × 100%)

= 10,500 units + 8,100 units

= 18,600 units

(B) The computation of the equivalent unit for conversion cost is shown below:

= (Completed and transferred units × completed percentage) + (ending work in progress units × completed percentage)

= (10,500 units × 100%) + (8,100 units × 41%)

= 10,500 units + 3,321 units

= 13,821 units

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

$3,500

Explanation:

Under variable costing method, product costs are calculated on variable manufacturing  costs only.

Step 1 : Determine unit Product Cost

Product Cost = Variable Manufacturing Costs

                      =  $ 35

Step 2 : Determine the units in Inventory

Units in Inventory = Opening Stock + Production - Sales

                              = 0 +  7,210 - 7,110

                              = 100 units

Step 3 : Determine Inventory value

Inventory value = Units x Cost per unit

                           = 100 units x $ 35

                           = $3,500

Conclusion :

the ending inventory of finished goods under variable costing would be: $3,500
