Answer:

The correct answer is option A ,first mover advantage.

Explanation:

First mover advantage is form of leading strategy where a firm is the first to identify the opportunities hidden in a particular industry or geography,thereby unlocking the potentials in order to improve its financial performance business-wide.

Last year mike bought 100 shares of dallas corporation common stock for $53 per share. during the year he received dividends of
Pepsi [2]
Mike brought 100 shares costing $53 each.
Total costs of shares= 100*53
=$5300

He got dividends of $1.45 per share. A dividend is money that is earnt back from a share.
Total dividend amount = 1.45*100
=$145

I'm assuming that Mike sold his shares at the end of the year. He sells for $60 each.
Total sales amount=60*100
=$6000

The rate of return in this instance can be defined as the amount of money made back from a share.

Rate of return= total earnings/ costs

Total costs= $5300
Total earnings=$6145

6145/5300=1.1594
=15.9%

Hope this helps! :)

The following data are for Lily Kay Company. Total sales revenue $250,000 Number of units sold 50,000 units Contribution margin
eduard

Answer:

b. 51,429 units

Explanation:

If x = Number of units

Net Income = Sales Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

or

Net Income = Contribution Margin - Fixed Cost

where,

Net Income = $80,000

Contribution Margin per unit = $3.50

Fixed Cost = $100,000

Contribution Margin = Net Income + Fixed Cost

$3.50x = $80,000 + $100,000

$3.50x = $180,000

Dividing the above equation by $3.50 we get

x = $180,000 / $3.50

x = 51,429 units

Hence 51,429 number of units must be sold to generate the net income of $80,000.
