to Division 2 and to outside customers. The selling price to Division 2 is $25, variable cost is $18, and fixed costs are $80,000. Division 1 wants to increase the selling price to $28.

Answer:

c. Division 1 should continue to do business with Division 2 because Division 1's variable cost per part is only $18.

Explanation:

Since the variable cost per part is only $18 and Division 1  sells to Division 2 at $25, it is in the company's overall interest that business should continue between the two divisions.

The cost of getting the part from outside is $26.  This will incur more cost to the company and create excess capacity for Division 1.

Fixed costs are not relevant in making a decision of this nature.  The costs would be incurred irrespective of the decision made.  They are therefore irrelevant.  The relevant cost is the variable cost of $18 per unit.  It should be the focus of the decision, including the possibility of excess capacity for Division 1.

Select the example that is inconsistent with the provisions of the UCC for contract remedies for a seller's breach of contract.
den301095 [7]

The example that is inconsistent with the provisions of the UCC for contract remedies for a seller's breach of contract is:

b.) A toy company sells a defective rocket launcher that injures a young boy. The sales contract excludes responsibility for all consequential damages related to the sale of its products, so the company only agrees to refund the cost of the defective toy.

<h3>What is UCC for contract remedies for a seller's breach of contract?</h3>

Consumers have up to six years to raise concerns relating to breach of contract, even though the goods under the contract may not last up to this period.  Therefore, the provision by the appliance manufacturer that buyers have a maximum of six months to raise concerns is inconsistent with the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC).  The code sets the same comprehensive laws for all commercial activities in the US.

Thus, option "C" is correct.

A rival good A. is exclusive. B. is one that rival firms are trying to obtain. C. cannot be shared. D. is one that is used up as
ANTONII [103]

Answer: Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

A good is said to be rival in nature if the consumption of that good by one individual will impact the availability of good for the others. This means that less quantity will be available for the others.

For instance, if a city has only one fire station, two fire trucks and four firefighters then it is characterized as rival in consumption because consumption of fire protection by one individual will make the fire protection unavailable for the others, due to its limited availability.

Suppose if there is an emergency call received from about 15 houses then the fire protection have to choose 3 or 4 houses among them because of limited resources. This shows that fire protection is unavailable for others.
