Answer:

A.to find out what people want in a product

Explanation:

Companies lower the value of products in a variety of ways, the main one being when demand falls. Free sample offering typically occurs when companies want consumers to test their products. This is mainly when new products are launched. A strong corporate strategy is to associate the price drop with the offer of free samples. This will cause the company to test consumer taste at the same time and to evaluate the demand for the product tested at a certain price. If the product is well accepted by consumers, in the future the company may raise the price if the demand for the product is high.

Realistic conflict theory would be a good explanation for rising prejudice in this situation.

<h3>What do you mean by Realistic conflict theory ?</h3>

According to the realistic conflict theory, wherever there are two or more groups vying for the same few resources, there will be conflict, false preconceptions and ideas, and prejudice towards the various groups.

Just the perception of competition will foster hostile emotions and discriminating behavior in one group. For instance, whether or not it is accurate, ethnic group A will feel resentment and hatred if it perceives that members of ethnic group B are a threat to them by "taking employment."

The Donaldson Furniture Company produces three types of rocking chairs: the children's model, the standard model, and the exe

lions [1.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We assume that

X = No. of children

Y = Standard type

Z = Executive type

So,

5x + 4y + 7z = 185.........(1)

3x + 2y + 5z = 115.........(2)

2x + 2y + 4z = 94

x + y + 2z = 47.........(3)

Equation (2) multiply by 2

6x + 4y + 10z = 230

From equation (1) to (2)

5x + 4y + 7z = 185

6x + 4y + 10z = 230

-x + 0 - 3z = -45

x + 3z = 45.......(4)

Equation (3) multiply by 4

4x + 4y + 8z = 188

From equation (1) to (3)

5x + 4y + 7z = 185

4x + 4y + 8z = 188

x + 0 - z = -3

- x + z = 3……(5)

From equation (5) to (4)

x + 3z = 45

-x + z = 3

4z = 48

Executive type = Z = 48 ÷ 4 = 12

Z = 12 in equation (5)

-x + 12 = 3

x = 9 (children type)

x=9, z=12 in equation 1

5x + 4y + 7z = 185

5 × 9 + 4 × y + 7 × 12=185

45 + 4 × y + 84 = 185

4y = 56 ÷ 4

Y= 14(Standard type)

During the past year, a company had cash flow to creditors, an operating cash flow, and net capital spending of $30,026, $67,603

larisa86 [58]

Answer: $6,834

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Cash flow to creditors = $30,026

Operating Cashflow = $67,603

Net capital spending = $28,760

Beginning net working capital = $11,917

Ending working capital = $13,900

Therefore,

Net working capital = Ending working capital - beginning working capital

Net working capital = $(13,900 - 11,917) = $1,983

Cashflow from asset = (operating Cashflow - Net capital spending - net working capital)

Cashflow from asset = $67,603 - $28,760 - $1,983 = $36,860

Therefore,

Company's Cashflow to stockholders during the year = (Cashflow from asset - Cashflow to creditors)

$36,860 - $30,026 = $6,834
