True.

Segmentation allows a firm to break the customer market by different categories and groups, such as demographics, market location, age, gender, and more. The segmentation process uses data to help the firm choose its target market to capture the most value. The customer group selected is then the target market for the firm.

Answer:

The correct answer is lower-class nonwhite.

Explanation:

The lower class is the poorest population segment of human society. It is characterized by having great gaps in its way of life and limitations in terms of access to economic resources. They are usually unemployed people, who do not own their own home or other goods or properties that are essential for living.

To this socioeconomic class belong people with very low educational levels, barely with primary education and some with secondary education. Some casual or independent workers also enter this class. Lower class families do not have good basic services in their homes.

Cotton White, Inc., makes specialty clothing for chefs. The company reported the following costs for 2018: Factory rent $ 42,000

Doss [256]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

1) Direct materials are those materials and supplies that are consumed during the manufacture of a product, and which are directly identified with that product.

Direct material= Thread + Premium quality cotton material + Buttons

Direct material= 1,000 + 42,000 + 750

Direct material= $43,750

2) Direct labor is production or service labor that is assigned to a specific product, cost center, or work order. 

Direct labor= Wages paid to seamstresses + Wages paid to cutters Direct labor= 75,000 + 50,000

Direct labor= $125,000

3) Manufacturing overhead refers to indirect factory-related costs that are incurred when a product is manufactured.

Manufacturing overhead= Factory rent + Utilities for factory + Cutting room supervisor's salary + Factory insurance + Depreciation on sewing machines

Manufacturing overhead= 42,000 + 22,000 + 30,000 + 15,000 + 6,000

Manufacturing overhead= $115,000

4) Total manufacturing costs= 43,750 + 125,000 + 115,000

Total manufacturing costs= $283,750

5) Prime cost= direct material + direct labor

Prime cost= 43,750 + 125,000

Prime cost= $168,750

6) Conversion cost= direct labor + MOH

Conversion cost= 125,000 + 115,000

Conversion cost= $240,000

7) Period costs are not directly tied to the production process. Overhead or sales, general, and administrative (SG&A) costs are considered period costs. SG&A includes costs of the corporate office, selling, marketing, and the overall administration of company business.

Period costs= Company advertising + Depreciation on salespersons' vehicles + President's salary

Period costs= 18,000 + 25,000 + 75,000

Period costs= $118,000

aniked [119]

Answer:

False. There is no legal contract without value consideration.

Explanation:

The following elements must be present to declare a contract legally binding and valid.

An offer for a good or service that is being exchanged, An acceptance of this offer, A consideration which is usually the value of the goods and services that are being exchanged.

While this transaction fulfills the offer and acceptance elements, the consideration or value specification is unfulfilled and as such there is no legally binding valid contract as the prices have not been specified before agreeing to transact.

There might not be any need be for specifying prices if there is a trade, which is both parties exchange goods but in this case there is just one party delivering goods.

Hope this helps.
