Answer: Marketing myopia              

Explanation: Several corporations incorrectly take a brief-sighted attitude to market in ' Marketing Myopia, ' seeing it as simply a method for selling products. Because of the brief-sighted mentality and misconception that a corporation is in a so-called' growth industry,' the Myopic societies, Levitt theorized, will open the way for a company to collapse.

This conviction results in self-confidence and a loss of vision of what consumers want. Such individuals are said to rely too much on the original product and failed to adapt directly to the customer's needs and desires.

     Organizations need to determine and operate on the needs and wishes of their consumers to keep growing, not on the presumed durability of their items. In any case, it's not because the market is flooded that the reason for development is disrupted, delayed or halted. It's because there was a customer service failure.

Nofly corporation sells three different models of a mosquito "zapper." model a12 sells for $50 and has variable costs of $35. mo
Vsevolod [243]

The first step you need to do to solve this problem is to calculate the contribution margin per unit for each model:

Model                                                                                   a12                         b22                         c124

Sales Price per unit                                                          50                           100                         400

Less: Variable Cost per unit                                         35                           70                           300

Contribution Margin per unit                                      15                           30                           100

The next step is to calculate the weighted-average contribution margin per unit for the sales mix using the following formula:

Model a12 CM per Unit × Model a12 Sales Mix Percentage<span>
+ Model b22 CM per Unit × Model b22 Sales Mix Percentage
+ Model c124 CM per Unit × Model c124 Sales Mix Percentage
<span>= Weighted Average Unit Contribution Margin (WACM)</span></span>

Contribution Margin per unit                                      15                           30                           100

X Sales Mix Percentage                                                 60%                        15%                        25%

WACM                                                                                  9                              4.5                          25

Weighted Average Unit Contribution Margin (sum)                         38.5

The next step is to find the break-even point using the WACM.

<span> <span><span> <span> Total Fixed Cost </span> <span> $269,500 </span> </span> <span> <span> ÷ Weighted Average CM per Unit </span> <span> $38.50 </span> </span> <span> <span> Break-even Point in Units of Sales Mix </span> <span> 7,000 </span> </span> </span></span>

 

The next step is to calculate the number of units of each model at break-even point

<span> <span><span> <span> Model </span> <span> a12 </span> <span> b22 </span> <span> c124 </span> </span> <span> <span> Sales Mix Ratio </span> <span> 60% </span> <span> 15% </span> <span> 25% </span> </span> <span> <span> × Total Break-even Units </span> <span> 7,000 </span> <span> 7,000 </span> <span> 7,000 </span> </span> <span> <span> Product Units at Break-even Point </span> <span> 4,200 </span> <span> 1,050 </span> <span> 1,750 </span> </span> </span></span>

Explanation:

The computation of the maximum price would be willing to pay is shown below:

Current price = Future dividend × Present value of discount factor (rate of interest , time period)
