Answer:

295 units of Qa

and 129 untis of Qb

Explanation:

1/4Assembly hours x Qa + 1/3Assembly hoursx Qb = ASH

1/8 testing hours  x Qb+ 1/3 testing hours x Qb = TSH

Profit = 9 x Qa + 8 x Qb

Assembly hours <= 90

testing hours      <= 80

A                   B                  C                D

Units Assembly Testing Profit

295  0.25           0.125    9

129          0.125        0.33            8

        89.88          79.88      3,687.00  

              (295 x 0.25 + 129 x 0.125)

                                  (295 x 0.125 + 129 x 0.33)

                                                 (295 x 9 + 129 x 8)

How do businesses determine the equilibrium price of a good or service?
Helen [10]

Answer:

C. They set a price where the demand matches the quantity they are

willing to supply

Explanation:

The equilibrium price is the current market price as determined by supply and demand forces. It is the price at which buyers are happy to buy the entire supplied quantities. Suppliers are also happy to sell that quantity at the set price. The equilibrium price is, therefore, the intersection of the demand and supply curves.

At the equilibrium price, there is no excess or short supply of a product in the market.

marta [7]

Answer: A few large flagship stores located in big cities; High-end pricing( Option A and D)

Explanation:

Because the people in this country usually shop close to their home, it would not be wise for a business to opt for few large flagship stores rather than a larger number of the smaller stores.

It would also be unwise for such business to sell mainly high-end products because the shoppers are used to good deals and haggling. Such company would be smart, to sell the products individually, because bulk purchases would make little sense for people that make frequent trips to the store.

Also, in a country with a congested transportation, an easy-to-access store locations will be important and having product experts on the floor who answers the questions of customers’ would appeal to network-oriented local culture.
