Answer:

The answer is: A) Bottom of the pyramid strategy.

Explanation:

In a bottom of the pyramid strategy a company develops new products or services that target the lower class customers in a market or are designed for  the poorest regions or countries.

Digitec Company developed a very cheap laptop and will sell it on extremely poor areas. Usually a product developed specifically for this type of strategy wouldn´t be able to sell well in a richer market. For instance, not very many people would buy a $50 laptop in the US or Europe, since it probably doesn´t have the same technical specs as the rest of the competition.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

1. $2.5 Per Share

2. $0.9375 per share

3. $1.25

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

1. EPS 2018

Earning Per Share(EPS) = Net Income ÷ Weighted Average Outstanding Share of Common Stock

2018:- Weighted Average Outstanding Share of Common Stock = (320,000 × 12 ÷ 12) - (24,000 × 10÷12) + (24,000 × 2÷ 12) + (96000 × 1÷12)

= 320,000 - 20,000 + 4,000 + 8,000 =312,000 shares

2018 Net Income = $780,000

Earning Per Share ( EPS ) 2018 = $780,000 ÷ 312,000 = $2.5 Per Share

2. 2019 EPS:-

Common Stock Share at the Beginning of 2019 =320,000 - 24,000 + 24,000 + 96,000 = 416,000 shares

2019:- Weighted Average Outstanding Share of Common Stock = 416,000 × 2 = 832,000

2019 Net Income = $780,000

EPS = $780,000 ÷ 832,000 = $0.9375 per share

3. The 2018 EPS Be Presented in 2019 Comparative Financial Statement = Net Income ÷ (Weighted Average Outstanding Shares Of Common Stock For 2018 × Stock) )

= $780,000 ÷ (312,000 × 2)

= $780,000 ÷ 624,000

= $1.25

What can a food surplus lead to?
gayaneshka [121]
A food surplus in a society can lead to many different things. But based on the principles of supply and demand a surplus of food should lead to a reduction in the price of food, because the quantity supplied is most likely higher than the quantity demanded. In addition a food surplus could lead a country or companies to sell their food surplus internationally or to "dump" the goods on another country or market by selling the goods for a very cheap price most likely lower than the price of the good in that market prior to the entry of this new producer or country with the food surplus.
