Answer: price leadership
Explanation: Price leadership is a circumstance where one business, typically the dominant one in its market, sets prices that its rivals follow closely.
This business is typically the one with the minimum cost of production, thus being able to outperform the prices charged by any rival who tries to set their prices below the price range of the market leader.
Rivals could increase prices than the cost leader, but this would likely lead to lower share of the market unless rivals were able to distinguish their goods adequately.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the given case depicts price leadership strategy.
Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Estimated fixed cost = $288,000
Estimated variable cost = $14 per unit
Units expects to produce and sell = 60,000
Selling price = $20 per unit
We first need to calculate the contribution margin:
Contribution margin per unit:
= Selling price - Variable cost
= $20 - $14
= $6
The break even point in units is the ratio of fixed cost to the contribution margin per unit.
Break-even point in units:
= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= $288,000 ÷ $6
= 48,000 units
Answer:

Answer: 0.000903
Explanation:
Expected return is the sum of the probability that the other returns will happen.
= (13% * 83%) + (5% * 17%)
= 10.79 % + 0.85%
= 11.64%
Variance = ((Return during boom - Expected return)²*probability of boom) + ((Return during recession - Expected Return)²*probability of recession)
Variance = ((13% -11.64%)² * 83%) + (5% - 11.64%)² * 17%)
= 0.0001535168 + 0.0007495232
= 0.000903
