Tommy Baker is an account representative from the United States for an automotive parts supplier and is meeting with a client te

am in Japan. This is Tommy's first trip to Japan, and unfortunately, he wasn't able to review any information about "doing business in Japan" before he left the States. His first meeting with representatives from the prospective client's firm is a dinner, and he is immediately surprised at the formality of the event. All of his counterparts are dressed very formally, and no one is addressing him by his first name but is referring to him as Mr. Baker. In addition, the members of the client team seem to be waiting on their supervisor to make the first move, and Tommy is beginning to realize that age and seniority are very important to the team members. Tommy is
growing a little concerned that he may not be successful in business since he feels like a fish out of water. Which environmental force has the sales representative encountered?
A. Sociocultural
B. Economic
C. Technological
D. Competitive
Business

Thane Company is interested in establishing the relationship between electricity costs and machine hours. Data have been collect
dangina [55]

Answer:

The correct option : B. Cost = $ 130.00 + $ 5.90 x Machine - hours

Explanation:

Let's use the following method to solve the given problem

Now applying the high-low method of cost estimation,

High => November, 5,300 machine hours

Low => March, 2,300 machine hours

Arranging it in a simultaneous equations for total cost:

We can let fixed cost per month to be F, and the variable cost per machine -hour be V, and the number of machine-hours be Q.

Therefore

Total cost = F + VQ

High => F + 5,300Q = $ 31,400

Low => F + 2,300Q = $ 13,700

Subtracting Low from High, we have 3,000Q = $ 17,700 or Q = $ 5.90 per machine hour ................equation one

F = $ 13,700 - ( 2,300 x $ 5.90) = $ 130......................................................................equation two
