Answer:

A) Charge a price that is greater than marginal cost to maximize profits.

Explanation:

The more market power a company has, the more it will tend to act like a monopoly. For example, Microsoft is not considered a monopoly because it is the only software company in the world, but because its market power in the PC business is so large that it dominates the industry.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: Cash in advance

Explanation: Cash in advance is a type of payment that is used in some trade agreements.

This method of payment will require a buyer to pay the seller in cash before a shipment is received and sometimes before a shipment is even made.

Cash in advance is a strategic form of payment that can be used in any transaction in where there is a delay between the sales agreement and the sales delivery.

In the scenario given in the question, we can see that the German company has already placed an order, but the company has also caused a delay in the transaction by requesting for extra modifications.

This will prompt EastSide Tractors to feel the need to safeguard their interests in case the German company should default. This is why a Cash in advance payment system will come into play.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$45,000

Explanation:

LCM (lower of cost or market) is an inventory valuation method that uses the lower figure between the cost of purchase of an inventory, and the price at which it can be currently replaced in the market, as the carrying amount of the inventory.

Accordingly, using LCM, the value of Daily Grind's inventory

= lower value of (inventory of coffee makers without timer) + (inventory of coffee makers with timer)

= 10,000 + 35,000

= $45,000
