Answer:

A.C. Tech Manufacturing Appliances

Product Models to produce first, if management incorporates a short-run profit-maximizing strategy:

                                                 Small      Medium     Large

Selling price                             $430       $610          $1,210

Variable cost                            $270       $280         $530

Contribution                            $160        $330         $680

Fixed Costs:

Fixed manufacturing                 $40         $170          $270

Fixed selling & admin                $70         $75            $140

Unit Profit                                   $50         $85            $270

Demand in units                         150         170              150

Total profit                               $7,500     $14,450      $40,500

Machine hours/unit                     60           60             150

Total machine hours required 9,000      10,200        22,500

Unit profit per machine hour   $0.83      $1.42         $1.80

If management incorporates a short-run profit maximizing strategy, given maximum machine hours available, it should first produce the large model.

Explanation:

The large model offers better contribution per unit, better profit per unit and in total, and most importantly better profit per unit of hour (major constraint).

In making a limiting factor decision, the choice goes to the product model that produces more profit under the limiting constraint.

In 5-10 sentences, answer the Question; What is a Market Economy?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

A market economy is an economic system in which the decisions regarding investment, production and distribution are guided by the price signals created by the forces of supply and demand. The major characteristic of a market economy is the existence of factor markets that play a dominant role in the allocation of capital and the factors of production.Market economies range from minimally regulated free-market and laissez-faire systems where state activity is restricted to providing public goods and services and safeguarding private ownership, to interventionist forms where the government plays an active role in correcting market failures and promoting social welfare. State-directed or dirigist economies are those where the state plays a directive role in guiding the overall development of the market through industrial policies or indicative planning—which guides yet does not substitute the market for economic planning—a form sometimes referred to as a mixed economy.

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer and Explanation:

The calculation of the adjusted price that could use for these two comps in a CMA is given below:

For Comp property A, the value of the garage should be

= $452,500 + $4,500

And, for comp property B, the value of the pool should be

= $446,000 + $5,000

= $451,000

In this way, it should be considered

How are the market and enterpreneurship related with each other?​
Klio2033 [76]

Marketing is a vital process for entrepreneurs because no venture can become established and grow without a customer market. The process of acquiring and retaining customers is at the core of marketing.

Further, marketing provides an effective vehicle for achieving entrepreneurship within the corporation. As some have argued, marketing is the home for the entrepreneurial process. As a process, a firm's entrepreneurial orientation has three key dimensions: innovativeness, risk taking, and proactiveness.
