The CEO of Dave's firm just came back from a business seminar. He called Dave into his office and stated, "I just found out abou

t the product life cycle curve in a strategy seminar. This is a great tool. I want you to drop whatever you're doing and inventory all of our products to determine exactly where they are in the product life cycle." Dave needs to think fast for a good answer because he knows that

Answer: B.it is often impossible to identify with precision where a product is in the product life cycle.

Explanation:

It is very hard to identify for sure where a product is in the life cycle for a myriad of reasons chief amongst them being the lack of sufficient data, external factors influencing data and misalignment with historical data.

Products go through four stages in product life style starting from introduction, growth, maturity and decline and pinpointing exactly where a product is can be affected by the aforementioned factors.

For example, products like natural food or yoghurt might be considered declining then due to renewed interest for whatever reason, they are rejuvenated and go back into a Growth phase.

Or in another example, the data of a product may be based on a stable economic period which does not hold anymore so the sales of the product cannot be expected to be the same and thus it can be wrongfully recategorized.

If you need any clarification do react or comment.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Suppose there is pessimism in an economy because of corporate scandals, international tensions, loss of confidence, etc. This is going to adversely affect the economy. Because of corporate scandals, the investment will decline. Loss of confidence in consumers will cause a reduction in consumption spending. International tensions cause net exports to decline.  

All of this causes aggregate demand to decline. The aggregate demand curve moves to the left. This leftward shift causes both the quantity of output and price to fall. As output fall real GDP will decline as well.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pam and Jon's dividend income of $134,500 each [($185,000 Accumulated E&P + $111,000 current E&P) / 2],

Statement of distribution for shareholders for tax purpose :-

                                  Pam      Jon

Total distribution $185,000 $185,000

less: Dividend income $134,500 $134,500

<em>                                      $50,500 $50,500</em>

less : Stock basis $25,900 $103,600

Capital gain          $24,600 $0

Pam has a taxable gain of $24,600 which reduces the stock basis to $0, whereas Jon has not any taxable gain but the stock basis has reduced to $53,100 [$103,600- $50,500]

Ceres corporation acquired a mineral mine for $6,000,000 of which $600,000 was ascribed to land value after the mineral has been
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

$11,880,000

Explanation:

Depletion is an estimated cost of a natural resource that is extracted. This resource is expensed as the extraction is made.

As per given data

Value of Rights = $60,000,000

Land Value = $600,000

As we know land does not depreciate or depleted.

Depletion Value = $60,000,000 - $600,000 = 59,400,000

Estimated resources = 9 million units

Resources extracted in the period = 1.8 million units

Depletion expense is based on ratio of the amount of extraction in period to the total expected resource.

Depletion Expenses = $59,400,000 x 1.8 million units / 9 million units = $11,880,000

Trout farming is a perfectly competitive industry and all trout farms have the same cost curves.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

(i) The farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units

(ii)  The farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down

(iii)  The two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200)

Explanation:

(i)According to given data,  When output is 200 but price is $20, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm breaks even. But since this price is higher than AVC of $15, the farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units.

(ii) When output is 200 but price is $12, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm makes economic loss. Also, this price is lower than AVC of $15, so the farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down.

(iii) The farm's supply curve is the portion of its Marginal cost (MC) curve above the minimum point of AVC. Since price equals MC, the two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200).
