Answer:

$900,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Perpetuity payment = $100,000

Annual interest rate = 12.5 percent

Total value of investment should be:

= Perpetuity payment ÷ Annual interest rate

= $100,000 ÷ 0.125

= $800,000 (should be as balance on the date of retirement)

The first payment of $100,000 should be on the date of retirement

Therefore,

Total investment on the date of retirement should be:

= $800,000 + $100,000

= $900,000

Explain the following statement in your own words: "Increasing productivity and also quality will result in increased capacity,
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Increased productivity and quality leads to consumer trust relationship that results in increase in demand and increase in the production capacity to meet the demands.

Explanation:

First when a company increases its productivity with commensurate increase in the quality of the goods produced or manufactured. The direct effect is that  the consumer base of the goods increase. In other words, consumers exhibit a level of confidence in the quality of the goods, they are attracted to patronize the company and since there is increased productivity, the company is able to meet the needs of its increasing consumers.

Furthermore, once the consumers are attracted and the company is able to meet demands, more consumers are also eager to join in purchasing the product, hence, the company is then required to increase its production capacity to meet the demands of its ever increasing customers.

<u>Why?</u>

The ability of a company to produce consistently quality goods and also meet the demands of its customers lead to a trust relationship between the customers and the manufacturer and such a relationship provides a solid platform for a continuous increase in consumer base that will warrant an increase in production capacity to accommodate more demands.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The answer is: A) Bottom of the pyramid strategy.

Explanation:

In a bottom of the pyramid strategy a company develops new products or services that target the lower class customers in a market or are designed for  the poorest regions or countries.

Digitec Company developed a very cheap laptop and will sell it on extremely poor areas. Usually a product developed specifically for this type of strategy wouldn´t be able to sell well in a richer market. For instance, not very many people would buy a $50 laptop in the US or Europe, since it probably doesn´t have the same technical specs as the rest of the competition.

Answer:

D. Land and construction costs are comparatively less expensive in Russia than in Canada

Option D would favor Russia ahead of Canada because of the fact that manufacturing costs are cheaper and they have easier access to Capital. I came to this conclusion since it has been stated that land and construction costs are cheaper in Russia.
