Answer and explanation:
In Joan's case, a general partnership will provide her control over her business that will be shared with the older gentleman who owns a jewelry store. Profits would be distributed evenly regardless of the contribution of each partner in the business. However, the older gentleman has offered Joan the chance of purchasing his share later on which would provide her the total control of the business and the patent of her creation.
The other option Joan has available is purchasing a franchise. This will allow Joan to avoid the initial costs of introducing her products to the market and the risks of not having enough consumers since her brand name is new. Though she will lose access to the patent of her creation and periodically Joan will need to pay NewJewelry a fee for using its name.
Therefore, <em>as Joan prefers to have control over her designs, it would be more convenient for her to choose the general partnership.</em>
The net operating income as per the variable costing method is $14500
<u>Explanation:</u>
The unit product cost is = $18 + $10 + $4 = $32
Sales revenue ( $78 multiply with 8700 units) = $678600
