Answer:

$45,000

Explanation:

Cully's storage constraint is: 100B + 90M ≤ 18000

If Cully were to buy only big shelves, it could buy 180 of them (= 18,000 / 100)

If they were to buy only medium shelves, it could buy 200 (= 18,000 / 90)

Cully's money restraint is: 500B + 300M ≤ 75,000

If Cully were to buy only big shelves, it could buy 150 of them (= 75,000 / 500)

If they were to buy only medium shelves, it could buy 250 (= 75,000 / 300)

So Cully's order must be within 150 big shelves and 200 medium shelves.

If Cully purchases and sells 150 big shelves, it will earn $45,000 in profit.

If Cully purchases and sells 200 medium shelves, it will earn $30,000 in profit.

Since the profit for big shelves is $500, Cully should try to sell as many of them as possible. The maximum amount that they can buy is 150, which will result in a $45,000 profit.

Using college students as the market segment, describe the most relevant reference group(s) and indicate the probable degree of
Sergio039 [100]

Answer and Explanation:

A. Toothpaste brand: Toothpaste is a commonly used, inexpensive, and very popular product. These decisions are governed mainly by the reference group such as family , friends or primary group with whom a student has regular face to face experiences. Hence the purchase decision is affected by a low degree of comparison community.

B. Buying a hybrid car: A hybrid car is sometimes described as expensive and luxury products. It's moreover a non-necessity commodity for a college student. These decisions are therefore usually affected by secondary community. And a high degree of control in the comparison community will only inspire a student to buy a car.

C. Buying cereal for breakfast: This is a simple requirement of a lifetime. Therefore, even without consulting any reference group a student can buy such product. Often such transactions are rules by family group control. So it needs a low degree of control.

D. Becoming a vegetarian: It takes a high degree of influence and motivation to become a vegetarian.

Thus the aspirational group influences a student. So they opt for vegetarianism to become part of such a community. Such decision taking involves a high degree of control.

E. Option of a computer tablet like the iPod: these products are a luxury commodity sold at regular prices. Typically refer to their families , friends, magazines before making a purchase student to get an idea about the output and price of these products. These goods are the weak product with a strong brand and a strong purchase is controlled by a strong reference community impact.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The correct answers are the following options: A regional sales manager's salary is a direct cost of the regional office in which the sales manager works - A direct cost can be easily and conveniently traced to a specific cost object.

Explanation:

On the one hand, the name of <em>"direct costs"</em> is refered to the ones that would be directly related to a cost object, therefore that these costs are easily recognizable to the person who manages the costs due to the fact that those will be the ones that are strictly referable to the object.

On the other hand, the <em>"indirect costs"</em> are the ones that have the characteristics of being the oppositive of the direct costs. Therefore that these type of costs are the ones that would not be easily referable to a cost object.
