It is "cutting out the middleman", which seeks to reduce distribution expenses.

By avoiding the middleman, i.e. offering straightforwardly to you, the maker can list that equivalent item for, say $75 which because of a broker or retailer rises to at least 100 $, which it to appear is a lot of difference to the buyer, while in the meantime giving them significantly more benefit than they'd make selling to a store.

Answer:

BAUM, UNIDO, and DEPSA all refer to types of project development cycles.

A. The BAUM project lifecycle refers to the World Banks' project development cycle as described by Warren Baum.

The BAUM project life cycle features 6 stages namely:

identification of opportunity
preparation for the project
appraisal of the project
negotiations related to the project
implementation and supervision of the project and
ex-post evaluation

B. UNIDO - The UNIDO model features three major stages which are also broken down into various steps.

Pre-investment phase

This phase is further divided into:

A study of the opportunity presented. This has to do with identifying ideas to be invested in.
Pre-feasibility study. This stage involves the formulation, and selection of project alternatives)

Feasibility study. When the project is selected, then it is tested to economic feasibility.
Submission of report on the evaluation

2. Investment phase

This stage is further broken down into:

Project design stage: At this stage, the criteria for success, and key deliverables are spelt out.
Construction stage (For engineering or building projects)
Pre-production marketing stage

Training of staff
Kick-off stage

3. Operational phase

This is also broken down into:

Replacement of equipment due to wear and tear or upgrade to better technologies

Development, invasion or liquidation states.

C. DEPSA stands for "Development Project Studies Authority".

This variant of the Project Lifecycle also consists of three major stages. They are:

Pre-investment phase
Investment and
Operation

The DEPSA stage is very similar to the UNIDO project life cycle. Both are defined according to an Investment Cycle paradigm and that's the reason why you have pre-investment, investment and operations phase for both methodologies.

Whilst the UNIDO model is more 'universal' in that it speaks to a wide range of businesses including engineering projects, DEPSA seems a little skewed towards engineering projects.

This is evident in the terminologies used in the investment phases. With DEPSA you would notice terms like 'detailed engineering design'

'construction', and 'erection'. The UNIDO the investment phase contains engineering terms but also speaks to 'marketing' and 'training'

While the BAUM project lifecycle contains all the basic stages in the DEPSA and UNIDO life cycles, it holds a universal outlook and seems applicable to both business and engineering projects.

Cheers!

The newest version of a product like Crutchfield headphones is likely to use price skimming, while the new version of Monster Energy is likely to use penetration pricing

<h3>What is price skimming?</h3>

Price skimming is a pricing strategy that a company can use when launching a new product or service.

Electronic products, such as the Apple iPhone, frequently use a price-cutting strategy during the initial launch period. Then, after competitors launch competing products, such as the Samsung Galaxy, the price of the product drops to maintain the product's competitive advantage.

The pricing strategy will be influenced by the stage of the product's life cycle. The process of charging a relatively high price for a product is referred to as price skimming. Skimming is commonly used when a product is new to the market (in its introduction or growth phase) and has few competitors.

Answer:

Equivalent units

Materials 10,200

Covnersion Cost 9, 100

Explanation:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&$Physical Units&$Materials&$Conversion\\$Beginning&2,000&0.6&0.4\\$Transferred out&9,000&&\\$Ending&3,000&0.8&0.3\\$Equivalent Units&&10,200&9,100\\\end{array}\right]$

The equivalent units will be calcualte as follow:

transferred out

ending x completion

<u> (beginning x completion) </u>

Equivalent units

<u>Materials</u>

9,000 + 3,000 x 80% - 2,000 x 60% = 10,200

<u>Conversion Cost</u>

9,000 + 3,000 x 30% - 2,000 x 40% = 9,100
