Answer:
Yield management pricing.
Explanation:
One problem in the interstate trucking industry is the number of trucks that return after making a delivery with an empty truck. However, there is a website where independent interstate truckers can look for loads that they can carry with them on their return trip. Because the trucks would be returning empty (and inefficiently), truckers who use this website to get business that they would not have had without it and charge a reduced shipping rate. This reduced rate is an example of yield management pricing.
Yield management pricing can be defined as a pricing strategy which typically involves having a variety of charges (prices) for the services being provided by an organization at a specific period of time.
Simply stated, it basically involves providing a service at the right price, time and to the right service taker.
The yield management pricing strategy is mostly used by the airline, hotel, travel businesses. The main purpose of the yield management pricing is to maximize profits or generate more revenue.
Answer:
$74.62
Explanation:
Div₀ = $1.09
expected growth $0.19 per year
Div₁ = $1.28
Div₂ = $1.47
Div₃ = $1.66
Div₄ = $1.85
Div₅ = $2.04
then constant growth rte of 5.3%
equity cost = 7.5%
first we need to determine the stock price in year 5 using the Gordon growth model:
stock price = [dividend x (1+g)] / (Re - g) = ($2.04 x 1.053) / (7.5% - 5.3%) = $97.64
now we can discount all the future cash flows:
stock price = $1.28/1.075 + $1.47/1.075² + $1.66/1.075³ + $1.85/1.075⁴ + $2.04/1.075⁵ + $97.64/1.075⁵ = $1.19 + $1.27 + $1.34 + $1.39 + $1.42 + $68.01 = $74.62
The answer is the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act or
RESPA. This act was intended to defend possible property holders and allow them
to become more intelligent consumers. RESPA necessitates that creditors provide
bigger amounts of information to potential borrowers at certain points in the
loan settlement process. It also forbids the innumerable parties involved from
paying kickbacks to each other.
Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Initial break even:
Let x be the no. of units in the initial break even.
Sales = Costs
Unit Selling price × No. of units = Unit Variable Cost × No. of units + Total fixed costs
250 × x = 100 × x + 840,000
150 × x = 840,000
x = 5600 units
10% increase in variable cost(new):
= Unit Variable Cost + 10% of Unit Variable Cost
= 100 + 100 × 0.10
= 110
4% increase in fixed cost(new):
= Total fixed costs + 4% of Total fixed costs
= 840,000 + 840,000 * 0.04
= 873,600
Break Even:
Let y be the no. of units in the break even.
Sales = Costs
Unit Selling price × No. of units = Unit Variable Cost new × No. of units + Total fixed costs new
250 × y = 110 × y + 873,600
140 × y = 873,600
y = 6,240
Change = y - x
Change = 6,240 - 5,600
Change = 640 increase
Answer: A particularly effective advertisement was Metro Trains' 2012 "Dumb ways to die - Be careful around trains.
Explanation: First of all advertising is a marketing or campaign strategy that involves paying for a physical or digital space to promote a product, service, or cause. The promoted messages are called advertisements, or ads for short. One of the main aims of advertising is to reach potiential customers that are most likely to pay for a company's products or services. Sometimes the goal of advertising is to make the public aware of certain issue. The advert was so successful that Metro credit it to have prevented more than 30 percent of accidents around trains. That, in my opinion is particularly effective.
