Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": a price increase results in higher profits; otherwise, the market is too narrow.

Explanation:

When firms are interested in acquisitions or mergers they have to determine if the target company is part of a relevant market. The term refers to the competitive conditions that offer the economy where the target company is located. The relevant market also considers the type of product or service the target company offers.

<em>Relevant markets optimal for mergers are those where an increase in prices generates more revenue for firms. If there are too many competitors offering undifferentiated products, the market will not allow organizations to profit from price increases. Those markets, then, are too narrow.</em>

Mikey is very picky and insists that his mom make his breakfast with equal parts of cereal and apple juice any other combination

timofeeve [1]

Answer: Mikey's mom will buy 80 tablespoons each of cereal and juice. Option C.

Explanation:

We will get the correct option by calculating each option thus:

Cereal = 4 cents per tablespoon.

Juice = 6 cents per tablespoon.

Option A. 40 tablespoons of cereal and 75 tablespoons of juice.

40 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 160 cents = $1.6

75 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 450 cents = $4.5

Option A gives a total of $6.1 (WRONG).

Option B. 100 tablespoons of cereal and 67 tablespoons of juice

100 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 400 cents = $4

67 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 372 cents = $3.72

Option B gives a total of $7.72 (WRONG).

Option C. 80 tablespoons each of cereal and juice.

80 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 320 cents = $3.2

80 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 480 cents = $4.8

Option C gives a total of $8 (CORRECT)

Option D. 40 tablespoons each of cereal and juice.

40 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 160 cents = $1.6

40 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 240 cents = $2.4

Option D gives a total of $4 (WRONG)

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer:

franchising

Explanation:

According to my research on different business strategies, I can say that based on the information provided within the question Entrepreneurs purchasing such a license are engaging in franchising.

An insurer sells a very large number of policies to people with the following loss distribution: $100,000 with probability 0.005

kogti [31]

Answer:

a) $2000

b) $1,886.7925

C) $2,036.7925

Explanation:

First, the question states to determine the expected claim cost per policy

Expected Claim Cost represents the fund required to be paid by an insurer for a particular contract or a group of contracts as the case maybe. This is usually based on the policy taken.

A) Expected Claim Cost per policy

= (Policy Loss Value A x its probability) + (Policy Loss Value B x its probability) + (Policy Loss Value C x its probability)+(Policy Loss Value D x its probability)+ (Policy Loss Value E x its probability)

= ( (100000 x 0.005 )+ (60000 x 0.010) + (20000 x 0.02) + (10000 x 0.05) + 0 = $2000

Part B: discounted expected claim cost per policy

Since, the sum of $2000 is expected to be paid by the insurer by the end of the year, the interest to be earned based on the rate (discounting used)

=$2,000 ÷ (1 + 0.06)

= $1,886.7925

Part C:: Determine the Fair Premium

Fair Premium is calculated as follows

The discounted policy claim cost + the Processing Cost per application + The fair profit loading

= $1,886.7925+ $100+50 = $2,036.7925
