Question Completion:

Figures in thousands (000):

Product Segment    Capacity Next Round

Dug             Core                1200

Dune     Core                1450

Beetle     Core                1040

Bat             Core                1050

New     Core                100

Adam     Core               1200

Answer:

Chester Company

Competitive Intelligence Report:

Based on the increased 10% capacity, the industry can produce 6,644 units.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Product Segment    Capacity Next Round    Increased Capacity (1.1)

Dug             Core                1,200                    1,320

Dune     Core                1,450                    1,595

Beetle     Core                1,040                     1,144

Bat             Core                1,050                    1,155

New     Core                   100                        110

Adam     Core               1,200                    1,320

Total                                     6,040                   6,644

b) Each of the core segment products can be increased by the increased capacity factor of 1.10 (1 + i), where "i" is the rate of capacity increase.  Alternatively, the total capacity in the current period can be increased by the increased capacity factor.  Either way, produces the same result of an increased capacity of 6,644 units that the industry can produce.  The result also shows that the options provided in the question are not correct.  They must have been based on other assumptions.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

measured in terms of the probable future payment of assets or services that a company is presently obligated to make as a result of past transactions or events.

Explanation:

According to my research on financial accounting terms, the term liability is defined as the state of being legally responsible for something (dept such as auto or student loans). When a liability is first recorded it is measured in terms of the probable future payment of assets or services that a company is presently obligated to make as a result of past transactions or events. Basically calculating the amount of future payments that need to be made by the dept owner.

how can you guarantee that your talk or speech will be interesting to your audience? Is this good advice? Why or why not? Justif
Rashid [163]
If you want to make sure it's interesting, you have to cater your speech/talk to your target audience. This is good advice. A 15-page detailed Powerpoint presentation with note cards would do as much good when presenting to kindergarteners as a water hose would do good in a flood. But, say, it was a fire, then the water hose might come in handy. In our case, your boss at the business meeting would find your Powerpoint much more interesting than kindergarteners would. 

Hope this helps! Have a nice day :)
