Answer:

first-mover advantage

Explanation:

First-mover advantage refers to the strategic advantage achieved by the first company that occupies a market segment. In order for a company to gain first-mover advantage it must be the first company to enter a market or at least be the first company to gain competitive advantage in that market.

Unidice is the first company to gain competitive advantage in the data system market because its processing speed is much higher than its competitors.

Sometimes you don't need to be the first one to enter a market, but you need to be the first one to do things right. For example, Microsoft introduced the Surface tablet almost a decade before Apple introduced the iPad, but Apple did it right, therefore Apple gained first mover advantage.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a. The preparation of partial amortization is shown below:-

b. $2,892

Explanation:

a. Date Lease  Effective        Decrease in  Outstanding              

             payment     interest           balance          balance

July 1                                                                           $150,000

July 1     $5,376                                  $5,376             $144,624

                                                                                ($150,000 - $5,376)

Oct 1      $5,376       $2,892              $2,484              $142,140

                                                       ( $5,376 - $2,892) ($144,624 - $2,484)

b. Interest expense on October 1 = $2,892

Working Note:-

Take the outstanding balance times 2% (8% annual = 2% quarterly)

So, the Effective interest = $144,624 × 0.02

= $2,892.48

Souza Inc, which produces and sells a single product, has provided its contribution format income statement for October.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

d. $300

Explanation:

Calculation for what its net operating income should be closest to

Using this formula

First step is to calculate the contribution margin per unit using this formula

Contribution margin per unit= Contribution margin ÷ Number of units

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin per unit= $48,000 ÷ 4,000 units

Contribution margin per unit= $12

Second step is to calculate the contribution margin

Contribution margin = 3,500 units × $12

Contribution margin = $42,000

Now let calculate the net operating income using this formula

Net operating income = Sales - Variable cost - Fixed expenses

Let plug in the formula

Net operating income= $42,000 - $41,700

Net operating income= $300

Therefore its net operating income should be closest to $300

Bond Valuation and Changes in Maturity and Required Returns Suppose Hillard Manufacturing sold an issue of bonds with a 10-year
g100num [7]

Answer:

It will be sold at $1,186.71

Explanation:

We will calculate the present value of the cuopon payment and the maturity at the new market rate of 7%

<u>The coupon payment will be calcualte as the PV of ordinary annuity</u>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C $50 (1,000 x 10%/2 as there are 2 payment per year)

time    16 (8 years x 2 payment per year)

rate     0.035 (7% rate / 2 payment per year)

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.035)^{-16} }{0.035} = PV\\

PV $604.7058

<u>The maturity will be calculate as the PV of a lump sum</u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  1,000.00

time         8 years

rate  0.07

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{8} } = PV  

PV   582.01

<u>The market price will be the sum of both:</u>

PV cuopon $604.7058

PV maturity  $582.0091

Total $1,186.7149
