Answer:
The need for organisations (which may be governmental or non-governmental) to improve the condition of living of people and protect their environment whilst they pursue increased profitability has been termed
The Triple Bottomline.
It is also referred to by economists as the 3P - People, Planet and Profit.
It speaks to the fact that other than the usual making financial success the sole metric of measurement by which organisations are evaluated, their impact on people and the environment should be considered as well.
In simple terms, a firm should be termed more successful than others if it's activities besides being profitable also impacts positively on people and protects if not improves the environment.
Cheers!
Answer:
The answer would be PRICE SIGNALING
Explanation:
Price signaling may occur when consumers have imperfect information about product quality. To infer quality, consumers may rely on previous experience or may use some of the product’s observable characteristics, such as the product’s price. We examine the scenario whereby the firm can endogenously change consumers’ beliefs about the product’s quality by altering both the price and quality of its product. Our main findings are that, in this type of setting, price signaling causes the firm to raise its price, lower its quality, and dampen the degree to which it responds to cost shocks. If the cost of adjusting quality is sufficiently high, the dampening effect is pronounced in the downward direction, meaning that price signaling causes prices to respond less to cost decreases than cost increases.
Answer:
$2322,000
Explanation:
The computation of amount credited to additional paid-in capital is shown below:-
Amount credited to additional paid-in capital = Issued per share × Number of shares) - (Number if shares × Preferred stock shares converted into three shares × Par value of common stock
= ($102 × 86,000) - (86,000 × 3 × $25)
= $8,772,000 - $6,450,000
= $2322,000
So, for computing the amount credited to additional paid-in capital we simply applied the above formula.

d.both answers 1 and 3 occur.
That is
a.the company has competencies and capabilities to efficiently sustain its competitive differentiation.
c.the company's competitive advantage grows out of the entire system of activities working together.
Explanation:
In a perfectly competitive market firms have similar products and so they must compete with each other to get market share.
Gaining a competitive advantage is key in surviving within the market.
Differentiation of its products is the first step to success. When a firm's product is differentiated from others it will gain more customer loyalty as the end user identies the product with a particular trait for example high quality.
When the companie's activities are well synchronised the company achieves efficiency which is a competitive advantage of higher output than other firms.
