Answer:

Beet fiber should NOT be processed into industrial fiber; beet juice should be processed into refined sugar

Explanation:

<em>A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost. </em>

<em>Also note that all cost incurred up to the point of crush are irrelevant to the decision to process further</em>

Product        Additional Rev.    Further process cost.     Net income(loss)

Fiber              14 i.e (39 -25)                  18                                     (4)

Juice              47 .i,e  (79- 32) i.e           28                                    19

<em>The beet fiber should not be process further  while the beet juice should be be processed further into refined sugar . Processing Beet Juice further will generate additional income of 19 per unit</em>

Why is real GDP a more accurate measure of an economy's production than nominal GDP? Real GDP does not include the value of inte
klasskru [66]

Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Real GDP is totally based on the base year price level. This means that base year price level remains the same over all the periods. Therefore, Real GDP is generally not affected by the changes occur in the price level. Hence, it only includes the changes in output.

Nominal GDP takes into account the effect of changes in the price level. Therefore, it is affected by the changes in the price level and it is also measured in current U.S dollars. Hence, it doesn't show the true value of the goods and services produced in a given year.

Why is price important to a company?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

B. It is a part of the marketing mix.

Explanation:

Price refers to the amount of money a customer or consumer buying goods and services are willing to pay for the goods and services being offered. The price of goods and services are primarily being set by the seller or service provider.

Price is important to a company because it is a part of the marketing mix.

Generally, a marketing mix is made up of the four (4) Ps;

1. Products: this is typically the goods and services that gives satisfaction to the customer's needs and wants. They are either tangible or intangible items.

2. Price: this represents the amount of money a customer buying goods and services are willing to pay for it.

3. Place: this represents the areas of distribution of these goods and services for easier access by the potential customers.

4. Promotions: for a good sales record or in order to increase the number of people buying a product and taking services, it is very important to have a good marketing communication such as advertising, sales promotion, direct marketing etc.

Price is generally considered to be a variable in the marketing mix that is most flexible because unlike other elements of production, it can be easily changed. An organization can decide to either raise or lower it's price depending on the nature of the market.

2. A fancy steakhouse in a shopping mall offers a 20% discount to employees of other stores in the mall, provided that they eat
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Different aspects to be considered:

First of all, the steakhouse probably has the most clients between 6 to 8 PM, that is why discounts are not offered during that time.

Second, the discount is offered to only a certain group, employees of other stores, because it is a promotional strategy aimed at increasing the number of clients during slow hours. Since this is a fancy place, it is probably expensive also. Most employees would not actually eat there except on a special event, e.g. birthday or anniversary dinner. Even with the 20% discount, not many of them will actually eat there.

This is something nice to offer, since a shopping mall is a close environment where a lot of different people work together, even if very few will actually take the offer. It is normal that different stores have distinct promotions for the employees that work there. It is similar to offering perks that help create a better working environment between the employees of different stores.
