Answer:
1. According to the case study (copy attached) "the upcoming technology that will be used in retail stores to improve customer service is the Scan As You Go Mobile Devices".
2. It is currently being used by sales officers in some shopping malls to scan items on the spot and let customers pay without going through the cash registers.
It is also being used to help customers take advantage of discounts and coupons on items being purchased. The effect is that customers spend 10% when they shop using this technology.
3. In the future, the customers will be able to check out using their smartphones.
4. According to the case study, the technology referred to in 3 above is already pioneered by Apple Stores.
Cheers!
Answer:
4) Problem analysis
Explanation:
Problem analysis refers to a method of investigating consumer needs under certain complex conditions. It is carried out in order to improve systems, processes and designs.
In this scenario, Sony was offering an extremely disruptive product which wasn't very user friendly but as we all know had a huge potential. Sony's original digital camera was very large, huge compared to normal cameras that used film. It was also very slow and it wasn't very good at taking pictures. Is main advantage was that it used 3¹/₂ floppy disk instead of film.
I'm not sure but I believe it could store around 10-12 pictures and then you had to use another disk. Finally people could start to take a lot of pictures without having to worry about high printing costs. My family had the final commercial product, and if that was the good product, I imagine that those that participated in the product analysis probably had to use and work with something slightly worse.
Answer:
Initial Investment, P = $100, 000
Recurring Cost, A=$6200
(a) Calculate the internal rate of return for infinite life,
A= P(i)
6200=100000(i)
i = 6200/100000
i =6.2%
(b) Calculate the internal rate of return for 100 years,
P = A(P/A, i, 100)
100000 = 6200 (P/A, i, 100)
(P/A, i, 100) = 16.129
For i = 6%
(P/A,6%,100) = 16.618
For i = 7%
(P/A ,7%,100) = 14.269
i = [(6 - 7) / (16.618 - 14.269)] (16.129 - 16.618) +6
i = 6.2%
Thus, IRR = 6.2%
(c) Calculate the internal rate of return for 50 years,
P = A(P/A ,i , 50)
100000 = 6200 (P/A, i, 50)
(P/A, i, 50) = 16.129
For i = 6%
(P/A, 6%, 100) = 15.762
For i = 5%
(P/A , 5%, 100) = 18.256
i = [(5 - 6) / (18.256 - 15.762)] (16.129-15.762) + 6
i = 5.853%
Thus, IRR = 5.853%
(d)
In all cases internal rate of return is greater than 4%, which is minimum interest rate that one can earn. So they should consider to install the pipeline.
