Devonshire Ventures is a large snack-food conglomerate that operates in more than 50 countries and employs more than 80,000 peop

le across the world. It operates through multiple regional product divisions, which tend to function as autonomous profit-and-loss centers. This allows the company to reap significant economies of scale. Though each division acts as an autonomous firm with its individual regional leaders, frequent sharing of knowledge between the divisions allows for global learning. These factors help the company reconcile product and service differentiations at low cost. Which of the following strategies does Devonshire most likely use?
A) an international strategy
B) a focused-differentiation strategy
C) a multidomestic strategy
D) a transnational strategy

Answer:

D) a transnational strategy

Explanation:

From the description, Devonshire Ventures seems to be seeking a balance between local responsiveness and global integration hence said to use a transnational strategy. Another reason is because their operations and communication are between borders and beyond geographical boundaries so that each division can learn from each other globally.

Coronado Industries began the year with 12 units of marine floats at a cost of $11 each. During the year, it made the following
Leni [432]

Answer:

Explanation:

For computing each part, first we have to determine the sale units i.e

= (Opening units + purchased units) - closing units

= (12 units + 27 unit + 20 units + 25 units) - 30 units

= 54 units

a. The cost of goods sold under FIFO is

Since 54 units are sold and in this starting units would be considered

So 12 units would be taken at $11 each, 27 units would be taken at $15, and the remaining units i.e. 15 units would be taken at $20

So,

= 12 units × $11 + 27 units × $15 + 15 units × $20

= $132 + $405 + $300

= $837

b. The cost of goods sold under LIFO is

Since 54 units are sold and in this ending units would be considered

So 25 units would be taken at $23 each, 20 units would be taken at $20, and the remaining units i.e. 9 units would be taken at $15

So,

= 25 units × $23 + 20 units × $20 + 9 units × $15

= $575 + $400 + $135

= $1,110

c. The average unit cost is

= (12 units × $11) + (27 units × $15) + (20 units × $20) + (25 units × $23) ÷ (12 units + 27 units + 20 units + 25 units)

= ($132 + $405 +  $400 + $575) ÷ (84 units)

= $18 per unit

d. The cost of goods sold under the average cost is

= $18 per unit × 54 units

= $972

How do you think Alden, from Situation 2, found out about Revinate? Given all the online companies that might help your business
7nadin3 [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you forgot to include the proper context of the question or further references, we can comment on the following.

Alden found out about Revinate by searching on the web trying to find the best software options that could help the company to identify the customer's reviews so Gregory E. Alden could make the best decisions for his company.

Gregory E. Alden is the manager of the company Woodside Hotels, located in Northern California. He was trying to monitor the comments of his high-class clients because Woodside Hotels is in the luxurious hotel business. So knowing that constantly monitoring client's comments on social media pages such as TripAdvisor or Yelp can be an arduous and difficult task, Gregory searched for the best software company to monitor client's comments on social media. That is how he found Revinate, a company that helps managers to track reviews so they can make the best business decisions once they have learned what their customers desire. And that is exactly what I would do to choose the kind of company to know about the preferences of my customers.
