Answer:

The answer is b as he should order 1045 copies to maximize his profits.

Explanation:

As

CR=\frac{C_{u} }{C_{o}+C_{u}  }

So,

Given :

C_{o} =20-14=6

C_{u} =28-20=8

Thus

CR=\frac{8 }{6+8  }

     =57.14\%

thus      Q^{*} =Norm.inu(0.5714,1000,250)

                 =1045.0032

                  ≈ 1045

Which is option b.

growth rate is 6%

SO we get Ks = 4%+6% = 10%

$81.52

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to state the price to pay for a stock at this present day.

Mathematically, we have;

dividend/(1+required return rate)^year

we then add together

we have

=3/(1.12) + 4.25/(1.12)^2 + 6/(1.12)^3 + 100/(1.12)^3 = 81.52

Anna35 [415]

Often, products enter decline the  stage of the product life cycle not due to any error in strategy but because of environmental changes.

<h3>What is product life cycle?</h3>

A product life cycle is the amount of time a product goes from being introduced into the market until it's taken off the shelves. There are four stages in a product's life cycle—introduction, growth, maturity, and decline.

<h3>What is the decline stage?</h3>

The final stage of the product life cycle (after introductory stage, growth stage and maturity stage) when sales are dropping because the original need and want have diminished or because another product innovation has been introduced.

The sales of most products will decline at some stage. This can be due to factors such as technological advances, trends, innovation or changing consumer tastes. You will know when your product reaches the decline stage of its life cycle because you will notice a significant downturn in the revenue it generates.
