<h3>Hello there!</h3><h3>Answer: C. prevent competitors from achieving a significant technological lead</h3>

The reason why answer choice "C. prevent competitors from achieving a significant technological lead" would be the correct answer because if they keep improving their products, other companies that are competing with them are going to be prevented a lead in advancements because the firm already made those advancements.

Whenever a firm is making an advancement in their products, they're doing that in order to be more advanced than other firms. Even though they make advancements in their products to satisfy the customers, they also do this in order to be a step a head from other firms.

This makes competitors have a hard time to be known for making an advancement for their product, due to the fact that another firm already made that advancement.

Answer:

Customer Lifetime Value

Explanation:

Customer Lifetime Value is a measure of how much amount of money a customer spends on your business/products/services over the course of his whole lifetime.

It is a predictor of how well you are doing to retain your existing customers.

Why is it important?

suppose you spend $10 to advertise your product (belt) and a customer buys 5 belts on average every year for 15 years. You get $12 profit for each belt sold.

12*5*15= 900$

Subtract the advertising cost

900-10=890$ This is your customer lifetime value

Now imagine what would have happen if we had to sell these belts to 75 different customers?

The advertising cost to attract 75 customers would have been too much and hence net profit and customer lifetime value would be very less.

75*10=750$

900-750=150$

This is why customer lifetime value is important and businesses focus on retaining their customers for longer periods.

Ecker Company reports $1,750,000 of net income for 2017 and declares $245,000 of cash dividends on its preferred stock for 2017.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

$1,505,000

Explanation:

Net income is the earning by the business calculated by deducting all the expenses from the revenue for the period. It is the earning which is available to distribute in the stockholders of the business. The preferred dividend must be paid if there is a profit in the period. The residual amount after deducting profit is available of common shareholders.

Net Income = $1,750,000

Preferred Dividend = $245,000

Income available for Common stockholders = Net Income -  Preferred dividend

Income available for Common stockholders = $1,750,000 - $245,000

Income available for Common stockholders = $1,505,000
