Kuzio Corporation produces and sells a single product. Data concerning that product appear below: Per Unit Percent of Sales Sell
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

<em>Net operating income  $8,950</em>

Explanation:

<em>The overall impact on the net operating income is the amount of increase in contribution from the addtional sales less the increase in monthly advertising budget. </em>

<em>                                                          $</em>

Contribution = ($75 × 190) =     14,250

Fixed cost - advertising       <u>    ( 5,300)   </u>    

Net operating income          <u>     8950</u>

Please, note that the fixed costs of $194,000 per month are not relevant for this decision. Simply because they would be incurred either way and that are not completely traceable to the increase sales.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

2. Tourists

Explanation:

The communication process begins with selecting a target audience -- the group with whom Take-A-Ride will be communicating.

Hence the target market would be the most likely to find the bike-share program valuable, and thus be the most profitable for the firm is that of the tourists.

Most often the college students and residents generally will buy a bike if they need one to go around but Tourists cannot do that because they only stay around a few days. Hence the tourist market is that which will rent almost everything it needs because it is averse to permanent ownership.

Tourists like to tour and they will need a take-a-ride package to be able to do so

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

70,200 units

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the budgeted materials purchases for April

+ (Ending inventory*Ending inventory percentage)- Beginning inventory

Gemiola [76]
The answer to this question is "Market Orientation" such as when the homeowner <span>visited the home depot to buy what he thought he needed to fix a leaking toilet, he gathered up materials totaling almost $70. When on his way to check out, an employee asked him what was he trying to fix. After some discussion, the employee convinced the homeowner that a $5.99 replacement part would fix the problem better than the materials he thought he needed and with less trouble. This kind of discussion between employees and customers is commonplace at the home depot and indicates the retail store has a MARKET orientation.</span>
