dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

This is the full question:

Before Caffè Gustoso's owners can develop a marketing plan for the new store, they need to decide how to expand.

To keep the market expansion manageable, they have decided to limit the potential locations to the Chicago suburbs. However, they don't know which suburb to target.

The profile of Caffè Gustoso's current downtown customer is as follows:

Total population: 39,404

Average household income: $121,000

Average household expenditures: $81,000

Age range of customers: 53% In their 20s and 30s

Type of employment: 73.3%White collar employment:

Education level: 79.1% Bachelor's degree or higher:

Family status:  Married: 49.3% Households without children: 78%

The owners have collected data on three potential markets presented in the market analysis report shown here and want your feedback.

Which of the Chicago suburbs is the best target for Caffè Gustoso's planned market development?  Deerfield, Aurora or Naperville.

And the correct answer is:

Naperville, IL

Explanation:

The following information for the 3 suburbs is taken form US Census

                        Average

                        Household                                            

                        Income         Median Age  %Married  %W/O Kids Race

Naperville       $105,585       35                   70%          55%             76% White

Aurora               $63,967       32                   54%          53%             56% White

Deerfield        $107,194         40                   73%           56%             95% White

The suburb that fits the average customer is Deerfield, for the following reasons:

  • The average household income of the Caffe Gustoso's customer is $121,000, and the average household income in Naperville is $105,585, a bit less, but not by a lot.
  • 49% of the customers are married, in Naperville, 70% of people are married. The difference is significant, but in Deerfield more people are married (73%), and in Aurora, the percentage of married people is close (54%), but the average income is not ($63,967 vs $121,000).
  • The average customer is in his 20s and 30s, and the median age in Naperville is 35, still in the 30s.
  • 78% of customers do not have children, and in Naperville 55% of people have children, however, the figures are practically the same for the three suburbs so this is inconsequential.
  • 73.3% of customers are white, and 76% of people in Naperville are white, an almost 1:1 correspondence.

The aggregate supply curve slopes a. downward because firms can sell more at lower prices. b. upward because firms can hire work
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The correct option is (b)

Explanation:

Aggregate supply curve is upward sloping as output increase with the increase in price. In the short run, wage rate is fixed. As such, in the short run, firms can hire more workers at fixed wage rate. An increase in price indicates more profits, thereby increasing output.

This is the reason for upward sloping AS curve.

On January 1, year 1, Dave received 1,000 shares of restricted stock from his employer, RRK Corporation. On that date, the stock
butalik [34]

Answer:

Taxes on January 1, year 1= $1400

Taxes on Dec 31, year 4=$3300

Explanation:

The question relates to 'EQUITY GRANT', which is some sort of compensation given to somebody, especially/specifically to employees of an entity provided that certain conditions/vesting requirements are satisfied by the employee.

Now on January 1, year 1 Dave has received 1000 shares, for him the shares received is treated is income for Dave, as the shares are being offered against certain services rendered by Dave to RRK corporation. So on January 1 Dave would record income and pay income tax as follows:

Value of shares on Jan 1/ income= 1000×$7

Value of shares on Jan 1/ income= $7000

<em>Lets assume income tax is 20% and marginal tax rate is 10%,</em> the tax consequences would be as follows:

TAXES = $7000×20%

TAXES = $1400

There will be no tax consequences at the vesting date and at the end of year 4 (the date when he sells them) there will be tax consequences of $4000.

At year 4 = 1000×$40

Amount realized= $40000 -$7000

Taxes at marginal rate= $33000×10%

Taxes at marginal rate= $3300

(Note: $7000 is subtracted because it's already present in $40000).
