A bulk gaining industry is one where the product gains weight or volume through the production process (the whole is greater than the sum of the parts). Due to logistical and transportation costs it is advantageous to produce bulk-gaining materials closer to where they are sold. This is why foreign car companies (Toyota, mazda, etc) have US-based production plants to save on these costs.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

A good way to determine if expanding the business into international trade is to use a tool to analyze the international enviroment.

To complete a Pestel, the strategist of the company simply has to add the relevant factors related to the external enviroment in each one of the six cateogories.

A local college is deciding whether to conduct a campus beautification initiative that would involve various projects, such as p
alekssr [168]

Answer:

  • <u>"non-rival" and "non-excludable".</u>
  • <u> $18.</u>
  • <u>less</u>
  • <u>should not</u>
  • <u>A. Students believe that if the initiative does not happen, the funds for the initiative will not be spent elsewhere.</u>

Explanation:

Since the project is simply about planting trees and remodeling buildings so as to make the campus more aesthetically pleasing hence for the students of the college, the visual appearance of the campus can be categorized as non-rival and non-excludable. Meaning, anybody can freely benefit from the project.

The benefit of the beautification initiative is $18 since the average willingness to pay is by the students is $18.

We can thus conclude that the estimated benefit is less than the cost since we are told that $7,200 is the entire cost of the initiative, which when compared to be amount to be contributed has a shortfall (300*$18=$5,400∠$7200). Thus, the college administrators should not undertake the beautification initiative.

Butoxors [25]

Answer: $315 million

Explanation:

First find the cost of capital as a required rate of return using CAPM:

= Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - Risk free rate)

= 6% + 1.25 *(14% - 6%)

= 16%

Value of Luther with leverage:

= (Cash flows with debt / required return) + (Debt * Tax)

= (44 million / 16%) + (100 million * 40%)

= $315 million

Dale and Dana work at a self-service gas station and convenience store. Dale opens up every day, and Dana arrives later to help
Alexandra [31]

Answer is given below :

Explanation:

  • Dale argument is wrong, because the business owner hires workers for up to $9.50 per hour, the last person's marginal product. This implies that all other hired workers will have a marginal product value of more than 9.50 per hour, although wages equal to 50 9.50 will be paid.
  • Therefore any employee who opens a station, be it Dala or Dana, has more value than a marginal product than any other person who reports for work.
