Answer:
It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 43,000 units
Variable costs are $2.95 per unit
Avoidable Fixed costs= $73,000 per year
Unavoidable fixed costs= $77,500 per year. 
The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.70 per unit. 
We need to calculate the cost of producing and buying and choose the best option.
Production:
Total cost= 43,000*2.95 + 73,000= $199,850
Buy:
Total cost= 43,000*3.7= $159,100
It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
All of these.
Explanation:
All of these are the correct answer because to determine the net cash from the operating activities, there is a requirement of the current year's income statement, additional information such as depreciation and amortization and a comparative balance sheet. In order to get cash from operating activities, the changes and non-cash capital, other non-cash adjustments, depreciation is added to the net income. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Year	Cashflow        [email protected]%	PV
 $                      $
0	(750,000)             1          (750,000)
1        350,000               0.9259    324,065
2       325,000               0.8573     278,623
3        250,000              0.7938      198.450
4        180,000               0.7350      132,300
                                         NPV         184,438
The correct answer is D. The difference in answers is due to rounding error.
Explanation:
Net present value is the diffrence between initial outlay and present value of inflow. We need to discount the cash inflows for year 1 to year 4 at 8% and then calculate the present value of cash inflows by multiplying the cash inflows by the discount factors. Finally, we will calculate NPV by deducting the initial outlay from the present value of cash inflows. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Explanation:
Porter's generic strategies determine how the company will gain competitive advantage within the selected market. Lower cost, differentiated or focus strategies could be included. The company chooses one of the two types of competitive advantages either by lower costs than competition or by differentiating between customers' value to achieve higher prices. A company also chooses two types of products that offer its products to selected market segments or industry levels and offer products in many market segments. The generic strategy reflects the choices made by both the type and the degree of competitive advantage.
1)Cost Leadership Strategy: This generic strategy requires you to be the cheapest producer in an industry for a certain level of quality. The firm sells its products at a price higher than its competitors or below average industry prices to gain market share. In the case of price war, the firm may gain some profit while suffering from competition. Even if there is no price war, firms that can produce cheaper in the time of industry growth and falling prices will remain profitable for longer. Cost leadership strategies generally target the wider market.
Each common strategy has risks, including low cost strategies. For example, other firms may also reduce costs. As technology develops, competition can increase production power and thus eliminate competitive advantage. In addition, many companies that implement a focus strategy and target different narrow markets may earn less in their segments and gain significant market share as a group.
2)The differentiation strategy requires the development of a unique product or service for its customers and offers unique features that recognize whether customers are better or different than their competitors. The added value of the product with the uniqueness of the product may allow the company to earn a premium for the product.  The risks associated with differentiation strategies include imitating competitors and changing customer tastes. In addition, different firms that implement focus strategies can achieve greater diversity in market segments.
3) Focus strategies are focused on a narrow segment and seeks to achieve cost advantage or differentiation in that segment. The main pillar is better service, focusing on the needs of the group. Using a focus strategy, the firm often has high customer loyalty, which prevents other firms from competing directly. There are some risks, such as imitating focus strategies and making changes to your target segments. In addition, it can be quite easy for a broad market value leader to adapt products directly to the competition. Finally, other focus areas can create sub-segments where they can better serve.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
B
Explanation:
A currency appreciates when its value increases.
For example if $1 was exchanged for 50 pesos. After appreciation of the pesos, $1 would buy $25 pesos. 
So more $2 would be needed to buy 50 peso after the appreciation when before the appreciation $1 was buying 50 pesos.
As a result Mexican goods would become more expensive to US consumers and the revenue earned by Mexican producers would increase
