Answer:

b) target costing.

Explanation:

According to my research on different pricing methods, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the method being described is known as target costing. Like mentioned in the question this is the process of analyzing a product's life-cycle costs (how much customers may pay throughout the products life on the market) and then design the functions and features of the product around that data. This is done in order to all but guarantee that the products profit margin will be reached, and is what Panasonic is considering doing.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Assume a drought in the Great Plains reduces the supply of wheat. Noting that wheat is a basic ingredient in the production of b
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

price of wheat to increase, the supply of bread to decrease, and the demand for potatoes to increase.

Explanation:

A drought will reduce the supply of wheat thereby causing the supply curve to shift upwards (to the left) leading to an increase in the price of wheat. Since wheat is a basic ingredient in producing bread, an increase in the price of wheat will increase the cost of producing bread. An increase in cost of producing bread will reduce the supply of bread, shifting the supply curve to the right.

Potatoes and bread are close substitutes and therefore, have a competitive demand. An increase in the price of bread will increase the demand for potatoes because rational consumers will opt for a cheaper alternative considering their money income.

"A customer has a restricted margin account with $2,500 of SMA. If the customer wishes to buy $7,500 of marginable common stock,
drek231 [11]

Answer:

$1,250

Explanation:

Given the following :

Amount of marginable stock customer wishes to buy = $7,500

Restricted margin account with $2500 of SMA

Since the account is a restricted margin account, that is (account has fallen below intial requirement). There must be a deposit of 50% in the regulation T account.

Hence, to purchase a marginable stock of $7,500;

50% of $7,500 should be deposited;

50/100 × 7,500 = $3750

Since there is $2500 of SMA in restricted margin account

Hence, the amount needed will be ;

($3,750 - $2,500) = $1,250

An investor owns 5,000 shares of IBM stock, $105 per share. He thinks that there is no large rise and possible drop in price. Th
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

If IBM stock price rises from $105 to $112, the profit associated with the passive strategy is $ 35,000 and the profit associated with the covered call writing strategy is $ 45,000 .

Explanation:

Shares = 5000

Price of shares = $105

Sell Price = $112

The profit associated with the passive strategy  = $(112 - 105) × 5000

= $ 35,000

Now with covered call also included in the strategy the profit/loss from covered call can be calculated as

Strike Price = $110

Spot Price = $112

Total Shares on which Call options are sold = 50 × 100 = $5000

Total Premium received = 5000 × 4 = $20000

(Spot Price - Strike Price ) × Total Shares

= $(112 - 110) × 5000

= $10,000

Hence Net Profit = Premium received - $10,000 = $20,000 - $10,000

= $ 10000

Hence the profit associated with the covered call writing strategy

= $35,000 + $10,000

= $ 45,000
