C. Ask customers to respond to a brief survey of their attitudes regarding insurance.
The "foot in the door" phenomenon is the tendency for people to agree to a large request if they have already previously agreed to a smaller/easier request.

Answer:
852 units
Explanation:
The break-even point is number of unit produced whereas the cost of in house produced equal to selling price of similar products
Selling price of similar products = fixed cost per unit + variable cost per unit

number of unit produced = $3,750/($5.75-$1.35) = 852 units

Answer:
5%
Explanation:
stock's Alpha = R - Rf - beta (Rm - Rf)
- R represents the stock's return = $6/$25 = 24%
- Rf = 6%
- Beta = 1.3
- Rm = 16%
Alpha = 0.24 - 0.06 - 1.3 (0.1) = 0.24 - 0.06 - 0.13 = 0.24 - 0.19 = 0.05 = 5%
A stock's Alpha is basically the excess return that the stock yields compared to an specific benchmark, e.g. S&P 500, Dow Jones.
