Business
1 answer:
Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D) Creating unique value for the customer through advanced technology, high-quality ingredients or components, product features, and superior delivery time.

Explanation:

This is because differentiation refers to creating and gaining a competitive advantage by establishing unique selling points of the products. All of the components of option D allows for creation of USPs and thus allows the product to standout. This is what differentiation is all about.

The other options do not discuss any advantage that would set apart a product in comparison to that of the competitors when compared on characteristics and not on costs.

Hope that helps.

In order to produce 100 pairs of oven gloves, Marcia incurs an average total cost of $2.50 per pair. Marcia’s marginal cost is c
anygoal [31]

Answer:

option (d) $200.00

Explanation:

Average total cost for 100 pairs = $2.50

Marginal cost for every pair = $10.00

Now,

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost

or

Fixed cost = Total cost - variable cost

or

Fixed cost = (Average total cost × 100) - (Marginal cost × 100)

= ($2.5 × 100) - ($1 × 100)  

= $250 - $100  

= $150

thus,

Total cost to produce 50 pairs of oven gloves

= fixed cost + variable cost

= $150 + (50 × $1)

= $150 + $50

= $200

Hence,

option (d) $200.00

Parker Corporation has a job-order costing system and uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply ma
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Unitary cost= $62.5

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. At the beginning of the year, manufacturing overhead and direct labor-hours for the year were estimated at $50,000 and 20,000 hours.

Materials costs on the job totaled $4,000 and labor costs totaled $1,500 at $5 per hour.

First, we need to determine the allocated MOH:

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

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 50000/20000= $2.5 per direct labor hour

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base= 2.5* (1500/5)= $750

Total cost= 4000 + 1500 + 750= $6,250

Unitary cost= 6250/100= $62.5

Joss is a marketing consultant. Iris and Daphne are potential customers interested in commissioning Joss to undertake a market s
posledela

Answer: d. both Iris and Daphne will want to purchase Joss's services but Joss will not be willing to undertake the job.

Explanation:

Iris will want Joss's services but they will be unable to afford them as Iris is only willing to pay $500 whereas Joss wants $1,200 for the job.

The same goes for Daphne who is only willing to pay $800.

Both of them will therefore want to hire Joss but will be unable to.

Joss could however charge both of them their willingness to pay and then sum the cash up and give them both the research whilst still making a profit.
