Molodets [167]

Answer:

a) it will do 210,000 units of standard

b) 127,500 units of standard

     19,000 units of deluxe

Explanation:

         Standard   Deluxe

Sales                      115        135

Variable Cost      50         54

CM                            165         189

Constrain resource     0.5                1.5

   (machine hours)

CM per constrain  330.00    126.00

a)

As the company can use up to 105,000 machine hours It will use as much as it can in doing Standard model which yield a better contribution of the constrain resource.

105,000 machine hours available / 0.5 hours per standard unit = 210,000 units

As there are 230,000 untis available for Standard we can use the entire capacity for standard and achieve the maximum contribution

b) as there isn't enough demand for standard the compay will do the 127,500 and the rest fill it with deluxe:

105,000 hours - 127,500 x 0.5 = 28,500 hours for deluxe

28,500 / 1.5 hours per unt = 19,000 units for deluxe

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is E) Customer spotting .

Explanation:

The detection of needs in the sale is the third step, of the six that must be taken to increase the possibilities of selling.

The detection of needs consists specifically in asking your client a series of questions that you have to have prepared in advance, in order to discover:

  1. What are the real needs they have
  2. If the products or services you have in your portfolio are suitable for what you need.

Not carrying out a correct detection of needs forces you to walk blindly and thus lose many chances of achieving success.

Keep in mind, that it is in this step where it is most important that you pay attention and listen to what the client has to say.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

The answer is: $38,429

Explanation:

Each payment is $200

Discount interest is 0.0769% (4% yearly interest / 52 weeks)

So the present value of the cash flow is: PV = $38,429

The best way to calculate the PV is to use an excel spreadsheet and the NPV formula:

=PV(0.0769%,L1:L208) where L1 to L208 all equal 200
