Answer:

Overall cost leadership.

Explanation:

Cost leadership can be defined as to lowest cost that is available in an industry. A cost leader in an industry has achieved a competitive advantage by being able to give the lowest price compared to other businesses in the market

Even where there is high competition businesses with low cost advantage perform well and have good profit margins.

So to avoid overall cost leadership firms convince rivals not to enter a price war, protection from customer pressure to lower prices, and the ability to better withstand cost increases from suppliers.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flow= $500

Number of months= 50

Monthly interest rate= 0.07/12= 0.00583

First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= cash flow

FV= {500*[(1.00583^50) - 1]} / 0.00583

FV= $28,928.06

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 28,928.06/(1.00583^50)

PV= $21,631.67
