Answer:

increase in income = $18736

Explanation:

solution

we consider here 2 case

case 1 is

Credit Sales with bad debt estimation @ 2.2%

and

Case 2 is

Cash Sales only

so as in both the cases we are indifferent towards cash sales of $135000 as Gilmore would earn the same margin and there is no bad debt scenario.

so in case 1  gross margin is  

Gross Margin = 20% of 512000

Gross Margin  = $102400

and

Bad Debt Estimation @ 2.2% is  = $11264

so Net Margin =  $102400  -$11264  =

Net Margin =  $91136

and

in case 2 is

as company have gone for all cash sales then it will able to sell $150000 less

so cash Sales =  512000 – 150000

cash Sales = $362000    

and

Margin = 20% of 362000

Margin = $ 72400

so that  increase in income from operations by selling on credit is

increase in income from operations by selling on credit = 91136 - 72400

increase in income = $18736

ipn [44]

Answer:

Jordan

Explanation:

Given that :

JORDAN :

Principal (P) = $100

Compound interest rate (r) = 3%

AMOUNT AFTER 3 YEARS:

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

n = number of times interest is applied per period

t = time ; A = final amount

A = 100(1 + 0.03)^3

A = 100(1.03)^3

A = 100(1.092727)

A = $109.2727

JUSTIN :

Principal = $100

SIMPLE INTEREST interest rate = 3%

A = P(1 + rt)

A = 100(1 +(0.03 * 3))

A = 100(1 + 0.09)

A = 100(1.09)

A = 1.09 * 100

A = final amount after 3 years = $109

At which stage of the product life cycle are product sales always zero?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Introduction

Explanation:

The Product Life Cycle is a term used to refer to the lifespan of a product. Beginning from the introduction of the product to the market, the product grows into maturity and ultimately leads to the death/decline of the product.

There are four stages of the Product Life Cycle:

  • Introduction
  • Growth
  • Maturity
  • Decline

The stage in which the product sales are always zero is the introduction of the product to the market. When a product is introduced to the market, the product sales are always zero. It is after consumers become familiar with the product that its sales increase.

Therefore, the introduction stage is the correct answer.
