Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: buyer tastes and preferences differ among countries and present a challenge for companies concerning customizing versus standardizing their products and services.

Delvig [45]

Answer:

10.5%

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

where,

Risk free rate of return = 7%

Market rate of return = 14%

And, the beta is 0.5

So the expected return is

= 7% + 0.5 × (14% - 7%)

= 7% + 0.5 × 7%

= 7% + 3.5%

= 10.5%

To calculate cost of direct materials used, you take Purchases of raw materials and subtract the change in raw materials. The idea is that the cost of raw materials used will be however much raw materials decreased during the period plus the purchase of raw materials.  Beginning raw materials is 4000, and ending raw materials is 3000, a change of -1000. Purchases of raw materials were 99,000. The Cost of Direct Materials is 99,000 - (-1000) = 100,000.
