Answer:

The correct word, that fills the gap is: New buy.

Explanation:

  • Direct repurchase: it is a shopping situation in which the purchasing department repeats orders routinely. The buyer chooses among the suppliers that appear on an "approved list". "Excluded suppliers" will try to take advantage of inefficiencies or dissatisfactions with respect to Current suppliers.
  • Modified repurchase: it is a situation in which the buyer wants to modify the product specifications, prices, delivery requirements or other conditions; In general, it involves additional participants in the decision by both parties. New task: it is a purchase situation in which a buyer acquires a product or service for the first time (building, security system).

New homework purchases have several stages: awareness, interest, evaluation, trial and adoption.

  • The industrial buyer: It makes the least number of decisions in the situation of direct repurchase and the largest, in the situation of new task. This is the biggest opportunity and the biggest challenge for the marketing people, which tries to reach as many key influencers as possible and provide useful information and help. Due to the complexity of the sales work, many companies use a missionary sales force composed of their best sellers.

B) he fails to assign number values to different criteria

C) he solves the problem inefficiently

D) he fails to correctly identify the steps of the process

Jack's Lumber Yard receives 8,000 large trees each period that it subsequently processes into rough logs by stripping off the tr
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

(i) $4,000,000

(ii) $3,840,000

Explanation:

(i) Contribution to income from selling the logs for log cabin construction:

= Large trees receive each period × per-unit price of logs

= 8,000 × $500

= $4,000,000

(ii) Contribution to income from processing the logs into lumber:

= Large trees receive each period × each log can be processed (feet) × (Selling price of lumber per board foot - Additional cost per board foot)

= 8,000 × 800 × (0.75 - 0.15)

= $3,840,000

(iii) Jack's continue to sell the logs only, because income from processing it as lumber is lower than log.

Last year, Cayman Corporation had sales of $7,000,000, total variable costs of $3,000,000, and total fixed costs of $1,500,000.
UNO [17]

Answer:

b. 13.9%

Explanation:

sales                   7,000,000

variable cost   <u>  (3,000,000)  </u>

contribution       4,000,000

fixed cost           (1,500,000)

interest              <u>   (480,000)  </u>

EBT                     2,020,000

tax expense          (707,000)

net income           1,313,000

contribution margin 4,000,000 / 7,000,000 = 4/7

if sales increase by 7%:

7,000,000 x 0.07 x 4/7 x (1- 0.35) = 182,000

income after increase in sales: 1,313,000 + 182,000 = 1,495,000

increase in earnings: 1,495,000 / 1,313,000 - 1 = 0.138613861 = 13.9%
