Answer:

Forecast and planning

Explanation:

An anticipatory model is a model under which market forecast determines the production of products by the manufacturer, and purchases by retailers also determined by forecasts and promotional plans. Since the forecasts are wrong most of the times, anticipatory model usually leads to differences in the actual production of the firms and what they initially planned to produce.  

Anticipatory Model is a risky model because anticipation of future events always determines the work to do by the firm.

On the contrary, the Responsive Business Model does not depend on forecasts, but ensure that what to be done are adequately planned and information among firms in the supply chain are properly exchanged. This makes the model not to be risky and ensure doing more than what has already been planned is avoided. Therefore, the aim of the responsive model which also known as Pull Model is to eliminate reliance on forecast.  

The major reason the Responsive Model has become popular in supply chain collaborations is that it allows for the customization of products on smaller orders by customers.  However, the Anticipatory Model does not give customers any choice or power but to buy or not buy.

Maren received 10 NQOs (each option gives her the right to purchase 10 shares of stock for $8 per share) at the time she started
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

$500 gain and $185 tax

Explanation:

Sale of share = No. of  NQOs × No. of shares  × Selling price per share

                      = 10 × 10 × $20

                      = $2,000

Basis = No. of  NQOs × No. of shares  × share price @$15

         = 10 × 10 × $15

         = $1,500

Gain realised = Sale of share - Basis

                      = $2,000 - $1,500

                      = $500

The tax is calculated as follows:

= Gain realised × marginal tax rate

= $500 × 37%

= $185

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The answer is $243,000

Explanation:

The inventory on July 8 immediately prior to the fire is the CLOSING INVENTORY.

To find this closing inventory, we need to find the gross profit first and then cost of sales.

To find gross profit:

Gross profit margin=gross profit ÷sales.

Gross profit margin is 20% or 0.2

Sales is $690,000

Therefore, gross profit is:

0.2 x $690,000

=$138,000

To find cost of sales:

Gross profit = sales - cost of sales.

Gross profit is $138,000

Sales is $690,000

Therefore, cost of sales is

$690,000 - $138,000

=$552,000.

And finally to get closing inventory:

Cost of sales = opening inventory + purchases - closing inventory.

Cost of sales = $552,000

Opening inventory = $140,000

Purchases = $655,000

Closing inventory = $140,000+$655,000-$552,000

=$243,000.
