Serga [27]

Solution :

It is given that Fizzo and Pop Hop sells orange soda. Fizzo advertises about his drinks while Pop Hop does not advertises.

According to the matrix provided we can conclude that :

-- If Fizzo wishes to advertise about his soda drinks, he will earn a profit of 8 million dollar and if Pop Hop do advertises and a 15 million dollar if Pop Hop does not advertises.

-- If Fizzo does not advertise, it will earn profit of about 2 million dollar if Pop Hop advertises and 9 million dollar if Pop Hop does not advertises.

-- When Pop Hop wished to advertise , Fizzo will make a higher profit if he chooses to advertise.

-- When Pop Hop do not advertise, Fizzo will make a higher profit when it chooses to advertise.

And if both the firms acts independently and they start off not advertising, then --- both firms will advertise as both of them will earn highest profits each.

If both the firms collude and both firms start off not advertising, the strategies they will end up is that both the firms will not advertise as the joint profit will be maximized.

Each of the following is a disadvantage of buying rather than making a component of a company's product except that Select one:
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Profitable product lines may be dropped.

Explanation:

The decision of making a product in-house or relying on an outsourcing manufacturer is evaluated mainly by comparing the costs that handling a new production line carries. While outsourcing can save a company a great amount of money in <em>labor, equipment, materials, </em>and <em>knowledge</em>, quality control is not managed directly.  

However, <em>a new line of components in-house implies incurring in most costs that could conflict the production of existing profitable product lines that could see their numbers reduce gradually until the product drops.</em>

ella [17]

<u>Answer: </u>True

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here for calculation of the profit or loss the cost of production cannot be used for comparison as they are the sunk cost it cannot be used for taking sale or rework decision. It is given the proceeds from the sale of inventory would be $425,000 and the cost of rework will be $150,000.

Net proceeds from sale of units = 425000 - 150000

=$275,000

It is clear that these profits are lower than the sale of these units without repair. Sale proceeds without repair is $325,000. So MR corporation can make decision to sell the units without repair for better benefits.
