Answer:

a. $85,000.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the cost of goods sold is shown below:

Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchase - ending inventory

Since in the question the cost of goods sold is not given, so first we have to find it.

Let we assume the cost of good sold be X

And, the net sales is $1,500,000 and Percentage markup on cost 66.67%

By this information, we have to make the equation which is shown below:

$1,500,000 = X × (66.67% + 100)

$1,500,000 = 66.67X + 100X

$1,500,000 = 166.67%X

So, X = $1,500,000 ÷ 166.67% = $899,982

The other items values remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

$899,982 = $250,000 + $750,000 - ending inventory

So, the ending inventory = $100,018

So, the estimated ending inventory = Ending inventory - undamaged inventory

= $100,018 - $15,000

= $85,018

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

If the restrictions on working hours are removed such that keeping other factors constant, the total number of hours worked increases. This will cause the total output to increase.  

But the workers will not be able to work efficiently for longer hours. This will cause productivity to decline.  

This happens because working for long hours will make the workers tired. Their health is negatively impacted so their productivity will decline.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

c. Neglecting the Other Side’s Problems.

Explanation:

To be an effective negotiator one must understand what his interest is and what he can compromise and the limits to what can be given to the other party (that is no-deal options).

It is even more important to understand the other parties problem. This can be used to guage their interest and how it can be met.

Not considering the counterparty problem is a mistake the negotiating team have made. If the other partie's problem is not understood then there won't be an effective way of negotiating.

Disruptive innovation is one that creates the way a market operates, that is it creates a new market and disrupts the old one. Existing firms and products are displaced.

The formula is as follows ;

Number of years = 70 / growth rate

<u>At 1.4% growth rate;</u>

Number of years = 70 / 1.4 = 50

<u>At 3.2% growth rate;</u>

Number of years = 70 / 3.2 = 21.88

<u>At 4.9% growth rate;</u>

Number of years = 70 / 4.9 = 14.29

<u>At 6.4% growth rate;</u>

Number of years = 70 / 6.4 = 10.94

<u>At 7.5% growth rate;</u>

Number of years = 70 / 7.5 = 9.33
