Answer:

How will e-commerce affect Emerson's ability to export products from China?

Explanation:

The answer above is the least relevant question that Emerson should think about before taking the decision of either building the facility in China or in the United States.

The reason is that exporting goods that are ordered online, from China to the United States, should not represent any significant problem, since the United States already imports billions of dollars in goods from China every year (the United States has the largest trade deficit in the world, with China precisely).

The Chinese economy is built for exporting. What Emerson should decide is the city where to locate the facility. Ideally, it should be a city with good infraestructure like Shanghai or Shenzhen.

Keith Inc. has 4 product lines: sour cream, ice cream, yogurt, and butter. Demand of individual products is not affected by chan
ratelena [41]

Answer:

-2500

Explanation:

Incremental revenue is - $10,000. This is because the sour cream product line will drop.

Incremental variable departmental cost savings = $6,000. This is because the company will no longer incurr the variable cost of the sour cream product line.

Incremental savings in fixed cost =

5000 * 30%

= 5000 * 0.30 = 1,500. This is because only 30% of the fixed costs are direct costs, which will no longer be incurred by the company)

Incremental increase in net income =

(Incremental revenue + Incremental variable departmental cost savings + Incremental savings in fixed cost)

-$10,000 + $6,000 + $1,500 = - $2,500

Incremental increase in net income = -2500
