Answer:

The correct option is (d)

Explanation:

Products have a cycle starting from introduction, growth, maturity and decline. This is called product life cycle. Considerable investment is required at introduction stage. Once the product is profitable, it enters growth stage and at maturity, it is at the most profitable stage. A product reaches decline stage as competitors step in and better products are made available in the market.

By adding features to its models, BMW is trying to lengthen its product life cycle so as to avoid the product's entry to decline stage soon.

You are trying to decide between two mobile phone carriers. Carrier A requires you to pay $ 200 for the phone and then monthly c
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

I would chose carrier B

Explanation:

The reason i will choose carrier B is because if we consider the cost of capital which is 4% of $70, it is lesser than carrier A.

Calculation

If A = $200  

Assuming Maintenance = $60 for 24 month

4% of $60 = 2.4

Now considering we keep replacing the phone after the contract expires and cost of capital is 4%

Therefor: 4% of $60 × 24 =57.6

If we run the same calculation for carrier B,

we have, 4% of %70 = 2.8

therefor: 2.8 × 12 = 33.6

Carrier B is therefore cheaper so ill go for it.

Two plumbers received a job. at first, one of the plumbers worked alone for 1 hour, and then they worked together for the next 4
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The first worker complete the job in 25 days himself

The second worker complete the job in 20 days himself

Explanation:

r1= rate of work done by first worker

r2=rate of work done by second worker

W= total work done

t days= time taken by the 1st worker to complete the job

r1(t)=W

r1=W/t (1)

Then the time taken by the 2nd worker to complete the job is t-5 days.

r2(t−5)=W

r2=W/(t−5) (2)

If 1st worker do the job for 1 hour and then both the worker do the job for 4 hours and 40% work is done, So

r1(1)+(r1+r2)(4)=4W/10

r1+4r1+4r2=4W/10

5r1+4r2=4W/10 (3)

Substitute equation 1 and 2 into (3)

5W/t+4{W/(t−5)}=4W/10

Multiply through by 10(t-5)

5/t+4/t−5=4/10

5(10)(t−5)+4(10)(t)=4(t−5)(t)

50t−250+40t=4t^2−20t

4t^2−110t+250=0

Solving the above quadratic equation using factorization method

4t^2−100t−10t+250=0

4t(t−25)−10(t−25)=0

(t−25)(4t−10)=0

t=25 or t=2.5

2.5 can't be the answer because if we take 2.5 days in which 1st worker completes the work, then the second worker will complete the work in -2.5days which is wrong.

The first worker completes the job in 25 days by himself and the second worker completes the job in 20 days by himself.
