Answer:

d. retail positioning matrix  

Explanation:

In the example, it is noted that Boston Market has added value to its original restaurant format (with pickup, delivery...) on the one hand. On the other hand, they broadened the product line with the grocery foods. The two factors imply the axes of the <em>retail positioning matrix.</em>

The <em>retail life cycle</em> is an often confused topic that is similar to the <em>product life cycle</em> (which is related to products and services exclusively) conceptually.  It consists of the following phases: innovation, growth, maturity and decline. Although this example can be correlated to the <em>innovation </em>phase of the retail life cycle, we cannot pinpoint the Boston Market's place on the retail life cycle curve, as we do not have info about its competitors, market share and other external info. Therefore, we cannot detect whether the company is in its up or down phase.

The <em>wheel of retailing</em> is an irrelevant concept, which refers to the tendency that most retailers enter a market in an extremely competitive manner (low cost, for example) and then becomes more exclusive (high cost, better reputation...).

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is: No, Jamarcus is not required to file a tax return.

Explanation:

According to the Internal Revenue Service (<em>IRS</em>) requirements for 2019, taxpayers who are single under 65 years-old with an income of <em>$12,200</em> or higher must file a tax return. Taxpayers who are 65 years old or older with an income of <em>$13,850</em> or higher are also obligated to report their income to the IRS.

Thus, <em>as Jamarcus' income for the year was $2,500 only, he is not required to file a tax return</em>.

posledela

Answer:

Find below complete question:

There are three equally large divisions in a conglomerate: (i) food division, (ii) travel division, and (iii) construction division. Their divisional betas are 0.5, 1.8, and 2.2, respectively.

What is the overall beta for the entire firm?

A.0.5

B.1.8

C.1.5

D.2.2

Correct option is C,1.5

Suppose that you are evaluating a project in the food division. What is the appropriate discount rate for this project? Assume that the CAPM holds. The risk-free rate is 1% and the expected return on the market is 7%.

A.10%

B.11.8%

C.4%

D.14.2%

Correct option is A,10%

Explanation:

The starting point is to determine the overall beta for the company.

Since all the three divisions are equally large,it means they share the same probability weighting of 0.3333(1/3)

food division               0.3333 *0.5

Travel division             0.3333*1.8

construction                 0.3333*2.2

overall beta                  1.49985  

1.5 approx

Ke=Rf+beta(Rm-Rf)

Rf is the risk free rate of 1%

Rm is the expected return on market of 7%

beta is 1.5

Ke=1%+1.5*(7%-1%)

Ke=10%
