Answer:

Comet's E&P will decrease by $50,000 due to the exchange.

Explanation:

50 of Pam's shares are worth 50 x $1,000 = $50,000, since the corporation is redeeming them, it will do so by decreasing its earnings and profits (retained earnings account).

Generally when larger corporations buy back stocks (AKA treasury stocks), they will credit cash and debit treasury stocks, but since Pam's stocks are being retired, they are not going to be held as treasury stocks, therefore E&P must decrease.

Ket [755]

Answer:

The answer is narrower competitive scope.

When implementing a focus strategy, the company chooses to only produce goods or provide services to a certain segment of people. In a cost leadership strategy, the business might choose to engage on initiatives that would lead it to be identified from its ability to provide the lowest possible price for its target segment. When choosing a differentiation strategy instead, the company’s competitive advantage would be its ability to provide a wide range of products.
