A stability strategy is a grand strategy that involves little or no significant organizational change. For example, Love Forever

is a jewelry store that sells only one type of item: engagement and wedding rings. The management of Love Forever does not plan to branch out into selling different types of jewelry; the company has a reputation for being the go-to store to purchase wedding rings, and it plans to maintain that strategy.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A stability strategy like the question suggests, is a form of grand strategy that involves little or no deviations in terms of organization, products and sometimes the customer base. A stability strategy involves more consolidation and less expansion.

In the case study listed above, Love Forever, a jewelry store, decides to stick with its strategy of selling only engagement and wedding rings. This is an example of a stability strategy because the company has decided to consolidate rather than expand and has decided to double down on its reputation of being a go-to store for couples who intend to get married.

Stability strategy are sometimes synonymous with small businesses who don't have access to huge capital or who don't want to access capitals from investors or banks for various reasons.

Answer:

The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

A stability strategy seeks to remain as long as possible in the maturity phase (or stability) of the company, reaping the fruits of the investments made. A survival strategy seeks to survive in a hostile environment, while retaining its market share.

In general, stability and survival strategies are defensive strategies, that is, strategies that seek to maintain the competitive position achieved by the company. This fact does not mean that the company cannot grow; in fact, on many occasions, to maintain market share growth is necessary (sustainable growth). In other cases, these strategies involve a decrease (organizational downsizing, outsourcing or outsourcing of activities).

These strategies are designed for the level of corporate strategy, although they can also be adopted for competitive or business strategies, as they allow the analysis for each business or activity to which the company is engaged.

You have an opportunity to carry a new brand of football. You estimate that you will sell 300 per week with a margin of $40 per
Ierofanga [76]
If a shopkeeper starts to sell the new football, their weekly margins would be:

300 x 40 = $12,000

However, the sales of the lower cost footballs will decrease by:

100 x 20 = $2,000 every week

Hence, the total margin we can generate by selling every week by selling the new footballs is:

12,000-2,000 = $10,000 

This means the shopkeeper should actually start selling new footballs since their shop will become more profitable

Answer:

Today, marketing strategies are generally divided into two sectors: inbound and

outbound.

Explanation:

Marketing strategies are broadly divided into two.  One is inbound marketing strategy, which aims to attract customers, who have already indicated interest in an entity's products and services.  They are already out there trying to reach out to the entity in order to satisfy their needs.  As a marketing strategy category, it utilizes pull marketing activities to create brand awareness and attract willing new customers, including content, blogs, events, search engine optimization (SEO), and social media marketing.  Outbound marketing strategy uses push marketing activities to chase customers.  For example, it uses TV, radio, and other media ads, trade shows, cold calling, and cold emails.

Mervon Company has two operating departments: mixing and bottling. Mixing occupies 27,235 square feet. Bottling occupies 14,665
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The amount of maintenance costs allocated to each operating department is $159,900 to mixing and $86,100 to bottling

Explanation:

In order to determine the amount of maintenance costs allocated to each operating department we would have to calculate first the percentage of area for each deparment as follows:

Particular      Area in square feet         %

mixing                  27,235                          65

bottling                14,665                           35

Total Area           41,900                          100

Therefore, if the maintentance cost is $246,000, the amount of maintenance costs allocated to each operating department is as follows:

Particular                %                   Allocation of expense

mixing                  65                          159,900=246,000×65/100

bottling                35                           86,100=246,000×35/100

                           100                          246,000
