Answer:
Incremental cost= $61,875
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Gelb Company currently manufactures 49,500 units per year of a key component for its manufacturing process. Variable costs are $5.15 per unit, fixed costs related to making this component are $75,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $70,500 per year. The allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys this component. The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.90 per unit
We need to determine whether it is more convenient to produce the component or outsource it. We will only consider the relevant costs, therefore the fixed costs will not be taken into account.
Make in house:
Cost= 49,500*5.15= $254,925
Buy:
Cost= 49,500*3.90= $193,050
Incremental cost= 254,925 - 193,050= $61,875

The same would apply to wearing a sports shirt.
A Non - Rivalrous good is one in which usage by an individual does not limit consumption by another. Most non - tangible goods are non -
rivalrous. Examples in this category are; the air we breathe, and the Toll Road. Almost anyone can access these.

The answer is intensive distribution strategy.
Explanation:
Intensive distribution strategy occurs when a company tries to sell their products through as many outlets as possible, thus ensuring that customers will encounter the company’s products in various distributor points.
