Answer:

The optimal location is E) 8,4, because when you graph the five locations on the coordinate system, E) would be located almost in the middle of the other four locations. This means that if plant was placed in E, it would be equidistant from the other four, which is what the clothing manufacturer needs.

Hoi Chong Transport, Ltd., operates a fleet of delivery trucks in Singapore. The company has determined that if a truck is drive
Anvisha [2.4K]

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High driven in kilometers - Low driven in kilometers)

where,

High operating cost = 114,000 km × 12.7%

= $14,478

Low operating cost = 76,000 km  × 14.8%

= $11,248

So,

= ($14,478 - $11,248) ÷ (114,000 km - 76,000 km)

= $3,230 ÷ 38,000 km

= $0.085 per km

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High driven in kilometers × Variable cost per km)

= $14,478 - (114,000 km × $0.085)

= $14,478 - $9,690

= $4,7882

2. The equation is as follows

Y = a + bx

So,

Total cost = $4,788 + 0.085X

3.

Y = a + bx

   = $4,788 + 0.085 × 95,000

   = $4,788 + $8,075

   = $12,863

Turbo Tech has managed to market itself as a superior brand compared to Best Mobile. Through aggressive marketing, Turbo has convinced the industry that it is better than Best mobile.

Marketing is about creating brand perception. If customers agree with your arguments, the brand gains an advantage in the market. Perception is not reality. These two competitors have the same unit cost and market price. It could mean that their quality is also on the same level.

Turbo Tech has a better martketing strategy than Best Mobile.
