Answer:
A direct response sales
Explanation:
From the statement, it can be seen that G bought the life policy alone and made his decision to replace that coverage with a policy that was purchased firsthand through the insurer and delivered. This shows that an agent was not used in the sale or delivery of the policy and hence this depicts a direct response transaction between the insurer and the client G.
Answer:
Explanation:
Annual demand (D) = 20000 units
Number of days per year = 250
Demand rate(d) = D/number of days per year = 20000/250 = 80 units
Production rate(p) = 655 units
Set up cost(S) = $1800
Holding cost (H) = $1.50
A) Optimum run size(Q) = sqrt of {2DS / H [1-(d/p)]}
= sqrt of {(2x20000x1800) /1.50[1-(80/655)]}
= Sqrt of [7200000/1.50(1-0.1221) ]
= sqrt of [72000000/(1.50 x 0.8779)]
= sqrt of (7200000/1.31685)
= Sqrt of 5467593.1199
= 2338 units
b) Maximum inventory ( I - max) = (Q/p) (p-d) = (2338/655)(655-80) = 3.5695 x 575 = 2052.46 or rounded off to 2052 units
Average inventory = I-max/2 = 2052/2 = 1026 units
C) Number of production setups per year = D/Q = 20000/2338 = 8.55 or rounded up to 6
d) optimal length of production run = optimal run size /production rate = 2338/655 = 3.56 or rounded up to 4 days
Answer:
A) relative advantage
Explanation:
A product's relative advantage over its competitors means the aspects at which one good or service is perceived as better or superior to other competing products. This concept is similar to comparative advantage, but from the consumer point of view. Consumers will value one product more because of its relative advantages over its competitors.
Answer:
e. None of these.
Explanation:
Step 1. Given information.
Taxable Dividend Yield = 9.7%
Tax rate on Dividend yield=15%
Interest rate=10%
Let Tax rate on Interest=X
Step 2. Formulas needed to solve the exercise.
Interest rate * (1 - x) = taxable dividend yield ( 1 - tax rate on dividend yield)
Step 3. Calculation.
0.10*(1-x)=0.097*(1-0.15)
0.10-0.10x=0.08245
0.10x=0.01755
x=0.01755/0.10
=0.1755
=17.55%
Step 4. Solution.
e. None of these.
