Product design is cross-functional, knowledge-intensive work that has become increasingly important in today's fast-paced, globally competitive environment. It is a key strategic activity in many firms because new products contribute significantly to sales revenue. When firms are able to develop distinctive products, they have opportunities to command premium pricing. Product design is a critical factor in organizational success because it sets the characteristics, features, and performance of the service or good that consumers demand. The objective of product design is to create a good or service with excellent functional utility and sales appeal at an acceptable cost and within a reasonable time. The product should be produced using high-quality, low-cost materials and methods. It should be produced on equipment that is or will be available when production begins. The resulting product should be competitive with or better than similar products on the market in terms of quality, appearance, performance, service life, and price.
On a linear demand curve, if the price is low and the quantity demanded is high, demand is Inelastic in that region and a price increase will cause an increase in total revenue
Revenue in accounting refers to the entire amount of money made through the sale of products and services that are essential to the company's core operations. [1] The term "commercial revenue" can also refer to sales or turnover. Some businesses make money from royalties, interest, or other fees. [2] The term "revenue" can mean income in general or the total amount of money earned over a certain time period, as in "Last year, Company X had revenue of $42 million." The general definition of profits or net income is total revenue less total expenses for a specific time period. Revenue is a component of the Equity section of the balance sheet in accounting, and revenue raises equity.

Answer:
59% - a)increase - b)decrease
Explanation:
First of all, we should say that the real exchange rate is calculated by multiplying the nominal exchange rate for the price index and then divide it by the price index of the other country. In another language, using this case as the example, the first nominal exchange rate is 50, as you need 50 rupees to buy 1 dollar. So to calculate the real exchange rate you need to multiply 50 by 100 (the price index of USA) and then divide it by 100 (the price index of India). Note that both price indexes are 100, just a coincidence for making easier the question. Result: 50.
Then we calculate the next real exchange rate: multiply 60 (the new nominal exchange rate) by 106 (the new US price index) and divide by 80 (the new India price index). This throws a result of 79,5. We see a 29,5 increase, and 29,5 represents 59% of 50 (the initial real exchange rate).
Then both questions is more common sense than the reading of the results we just calculated. For example, nominal exchange rate changed from 50 to 60, so the people in India will now have to collect 10 more rupees to buy the same dollar. Let's suppose a pair of shoes in USA costs 40 dollars. Before, Indians needed 2000 rupees to buy it. Now they will need 2400 rupees... it will be more expensive. Plus, the prices of USA had gone up 6%, which means the pair of shoes will now cost 42,4 dollars... even more expensive! As products in USA are more expensive, we can expect that India's consumption of American goods will decrease (law of demand).
With the American consumption of Indian goods happens the opposite, the goods in India became cheaper (price index has fallen), and for the Americans, the same dollars they had will buy more rupees when the exchange rate changed to 60.
Answer:
The ABC overhead for a Deluxe kayak will be $170.93
Explanation:

We are going to divide the overhead cost over the cost driver of each activity.
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}-&Overhead&Total&Rate\\fabric&246,000&10,000&24.6\\assembly&144,000&32,000&4.5\\setup&110,000&15&7,333.33\\\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D-%26Overhead%26Total%26Rate%5C%5Cfabric%26246%2C000%2610%2C000%2624.6%5C%5Cassembly%26144%2C000%2632%2C000%264.5%5C%5Csetup%26110%2C000%2615%267%2C333.33%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Now we apply the rate to Deluxe Kayak:
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}-&Rate&Deluxe&Overhead\\fabric&24.6&10,000&246,000\\assembly&4.5&24,000&108,000\\setup&7,333.33&10&73,333.33\\Total&-&-&427,333.33\\\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D-%26Rate%26Deluxe%26Overhead%5C%5Cfabric%2624.6%2610%2C000%26246%2C000%5C%5Cassembly%264.5%2624%2C000%26108%2C000%5C%5Csetup%267%2C333.33%2610%2673%2C333.33%5C%5CTotal%26-%26-%26427%2C333.33%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Finally we divide the overhead for Deluxe between the units produced
427,333.33/ 2,500 = 170.933 = 170.93
