Only 3 days after the attacks of 9-11, Northwestern Mutual began providing death benefits to surviving families of the first res
Luda [366]

Answer:

Empathy

Explanation:

Empathy is the ability of a person of business entity to understand the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of their customers. It is the ability to personalise the customer's situation.

This makes the business go the extra mile in solving the customer's problem.

In this scenario Northwestern mutual felt the pain and understood the financial needs of the families of first responders during the 9-11 attack.

So without official death certificates they paid death benefits only 3 days after the attacks.

Other insurance companies however did not empathise with their customers and only paid death benefits some months to a year.

A customer of a firm enters a foreign market by setting up a manufacturing facility. It tells its suppliers that they will need
marysya [2.9K]

Answer: Piggy backing

Explanation: Piggy back exporting is done by suppliers of a product and entails them supplying a certain function of the business only and just buying the actual product from local sellers. Another option can be that the supplier works with the local seller, and sells the seller's goods on behalf of seller for a commision. The suppliers are known as the carriers and the local sellers are known as the riders.

The customer entering the foregin market is the rider, and the suppliers supplying the parts ahd customer service is the carrier. The customer does not fully need to produce the product from scratch, and is able to acquire this from the suppliers who already have it. The custoemr, who is the rider, is thus able to "ride" on the back of the "carriers" back and ideas set in motion for their product.

Explain why to maximize profits a firm needs to produce an output at a level where marginal revenue
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Rest of question:

... equals marginal cost.

Firms will maximize profits at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because producing after this point means that no profits will be made.

As long as the Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost, there will be profits made because the company is making more than it is spending so they should keep producing. When it gets to a point in production where the marginal revenue equals marginal cost, the company should not produce further than that.

This is because, as earlier mentioned, any further production would result in the marginal cost being larger than the marginal revenue which means that a loss will be made. The company should therefore stop at the point where MR = MC so as not to let MC get larger than MR so that no losses will be made.

MILLS ALLOCATES MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD TO PRODUCTION BASED ON STANDARD DIRECT LABOR HOURS. MILLS REPORTED THE FOLLOWING ACTUAL R
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

1. Compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and fixed overhead cost and volume variances.

  • variable overhead cost variance = $1,000 unfavorable
  • variable efficiency variance = -$1,200 favorable
  • fixed overhead costs = $1,500 unfavorable
  • fixed overhead volume variance = -$100 favorable

2. EXPLAIN (as best you can) why the variances are favorable or unfavorable. Based on cost and efficiency budget standards.

  • variable overhead cost variance is unfavorable because actual variable overhead costs per unit are higher than budgeted.
  • variable efficiency variance is favorable because the company used less direct labor hours than budgeted to produce a higher amount of units (1,600 vs. 2,000).
  • fixed overhead costs are unfavorable because total fixed overhead costs were much higher than budgeted, but most of this variance can be explained by higher output.
  • fixed overhead volume variance are favorable because a higher volume was produced using less hours than budgeted.

Explanation:

Static budget variable overhead $1,200

Actual variable overhead $4,000

Static budget fixed overhead $1,600

Actual fixed overhead $3,100

Static budget direct labor hours 800 hours

Actual direct labor hours 1,600

Static budget number of units 400 units

Actual units produced 1,000

Standard direct labor hours 2 hours per unit

Actual direct labor hours 1.6 per unit

standard variable rate = $1,200 / 400 units = $3 per unit

actual variable rate = $4,000 / 1,000 units = $4 per unit

standard fixed rate = $1,600 / 800 hours = $2 per hour

actual fixed rate = $3,100 / 1,600 hours = $1.9375 per hour

variable overhead cost variance = actual costs - (standard rate x actual units) = $4,000 - ($3 x 1,000) = $1,000 unfavorable

variable efficiency variance = (actual hours x standard rate) - (standard hours x standard rate) = (1,600 × $3) − (2,000 x $3) = $4,800 - $6,000 = -$1,200 favorable

fixed overhead costs = actual overhead costs - budgeted overhead costs = $3,100 - $1,600 = $1,500 unfavorable

fixed overhead volume variance = (actual fixed rate x actual hours) - (standard rate x actual hours) = ($1.9375 x 1,600) - ($ x 1,600) = $3,100 - $3,200 = -$100 favorable
