Answer:

The answer is A) Puts emphasis on the external environment, which plays a role in determining a company´s ability to achieve above-average returns.

Explanation:

The I/O Model of Above-Average Returns basically assumes that the industry in which a company decides to compete in has a much larger influence on performance (earnings and profit) than the choices the managers of this company make.

The basic assumptions of this organization model are:

The external environment imposes pressures and constraints that determine the strategies of the company and will result in above average returns.
It assumes competing companies control similar strategically relevant resources and pursue similar strategies.
Resources are highly mobile across companies, so that any differences that might develop between companies will be short-lived.
Decision-makers within the company are assumed to be rational and committed to acting in the company´s profit-maximizing behaviors.

$Original Price *\frac{85}{100}=68$

$Original Price=\frac{68*100}{85}$

Original Price=$80

Before buying prices rises by 25%.

Rises and discounts making the Final Price= $68*\frac{125}{100}$ Note: (125 is due to 25% rise)

Final Price=$85

Difference between Prices=$5

fomenos

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Bentley estimates manufacturing overhead of $1,949,400 for 2019 and will apply overhead to units produced based on 722,000 machine hours.

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 1,949,400/722,000= $2.7 per machine hour.

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 2.7*717,000= $1,935,900

Production cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated moh

Production cost= 1,470,000 + 2,573,300 + 1,935,900= 5,979,200

Unitary cost=5,979,200/2,020,000= $2.96

When the Treasury bond market becomes less liquid, other things equal, the demand curve for corporate bonds shifts to the ______

poizon [28]

Answer: right; left

Explanation:

When the Treasury bond market becomes less liquid, other things equal, the demand curve for corporate bonds shifts to the right and the demand curve for Treasury bonds shifts to the left.

Liquidity is highly sought after in the bond market such that more liquid securities have a higher demand than less liquid securities.

Should Treasury bills become less liquid, their demand would decrease which would result in the demand curve for treasury bills shifting to the left.

More people would then switch over to Corporate bonds which would have more liquidity. The increase in demand for corporate bonds will lead to the demand curve for corporate bonds shifting to the right.
