SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

This question is incomplete and incorrect in some parts, here is the full one:

Under what circumstances should a company's management team give serious consideration to making price offers to supply private-label footwear to chain retailers in one or more regions?

a) When the benchmarking data at the bottom of p. 7 of the latest FIR indicates that all sellers of private label footwear in that geographic region had a margin over direct costs of more than $2.50 per pair of private-label footwear sold to chain retailers

b) When chain retailers want to purchase private-label footwear with an S/Q rating that is 2- stars or more below last year's industry average for branded footwear

c) When the data in the latest Competitive Intelligence Report indicates that all of the winning bidders for P-L contracts sold more than 500,000 pairs of P-L shoes

d) When company managers conclude that the company has more than enough production capacity to produce the needed pairs of branded footwear and, based on their projections, determine that the company's profitability can be enhanced by making price offers to chain retailers and winning contracts to supply them with private-label footwear

e) When the company's market share for branded footwear in a geographic region is below the industry average and all the sellers of private-label footwear in the prior year made money on their private-label contracts

The answer is d)

Explanation:

A common misconception when it comes to manufacturing private-label goods is related to the lack of lucrativeness. Some may ask: Why should I manufacture goods for a retailer when I can sell them under my own brand?

The truth is - most companies (given their production management is efficient) have excess production capacity. That means that for a particular period, they are able to manufacture goods with a low, competitive cost per unit. Only when the production capacity is fully used, the production is optimal.

However, since most companies have a precisely defined budget for marketing, branding, packaging, distribution and logistics, sometimes it is very profitable to allocate some production capacity aimed just for products for a private-label.

This way, the costs related to marketing, branding, etc. will be transferred on to the retailer, while we reach our full production capacity in a particular geographical area of operating.

Consider each person's situation to determine who would be counted among the "unemployed."Laura works 20 hours in a paid positio

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Erik.

Explanation:

Unemployment occurs when a person actively looking for work can not find a job. The most frequently cited indicator of unemployment is the unemployment rate, which is the number of unemployed people divided by the number of employees in the labor force.

Thus, Erik can be considered unemployed since he is volunteering at school, meaning he is not earning any compensation for that, and he is actively looking for a job even if he has not been able to find one yet.

Cost of Debt KatyDid Clothes has a $150 million (face value) 30-year bond issue selling for 104 percent of par that carries a co

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

the annual pre-tax cost of debt is 10.56%

Explanation:

the beore-tax component cost of debt will be the actual market rate of the bonds, as they offer an interest rate of 11% but are selling at 104 points not at par thus, there is a difference between the rates.

We solve for the rate which makes the coupon and maturity 104

with excel or a financial calculator

PV of the coupon payment

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 5.500 (100 x 11%/2)

time 60 (30 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.052787474

$5.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0527874736258532)^{-60} }{0.0527874736258532} = PV\\$

PV $99.4338

PV of the maturity

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 100.00

time 60.00

rate 0.052787474

$\frac{100}{(1 + 0.0527874736258532)^{60} } = PV$

PV 4.57

Adding both we should get 104 which is the amount the bonds is selling:

PV coupon $99.4338 + PV maturity $4.5662 = $104.0000

The rate is generated using goal seek or wiht a financial calculator.

This rate is a semiannual rate, so we multiply by 2 to get the annual cost of debt:

0.052787474 x 2 = 0.105574947

The cost of debt for the firm is 10.56%

Determine the value-added, non-value-added, and total lead times, and the value-added ratio under the present and proposed produ

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Hello some parts of your question is missing attached below is the missing part

Answer : value added times : 30 minutes , 30 minutes

non-value added times: 1210 minutes, 130 minutes

Total lead times : 1240 minutes, 160 minutes

value added time as a ratio: 2.4%, 18.8%

Explanation:

Given data:

production batch sizes = 40 units

process step 1 = 6 minutes

process step 2 = 10 minutes

process step 3 = 6 minutes

process step 4 = 8 minutes

Determining : The value added, non-value added , total lead times and value added ratio under the present and proposed production approaches

UNDER PRESENT PRODUCTION APPROACH

Th value added time:

= summation of all process times = (6+10+6+8) = 30 minutes

Non-value added time:

= Value added time *(Batch size -1) + move time between each step

= 30*39+8*5

= 1170 +40 = 1210 minutes

total lead time :

= value added time + non-value added time

= 30 + 1210 = 1240 minutes

value added time as a percentage/ratio

(value added time / total lead time) * 100

= 30 / 1240 * 100 = 2.4%

UNDER PROPOSED PRODUCTION APPROACH

value added time :

= summation of all process times = (6+10+6+8) = 30 minutes

Non-value added time :

= Value added time *(Batch size -1) + time between each step

= 30*4+2*5 = 120 + 10 = 130 mins

total lead time :

= value added time + non-value added time = 30 +130 = 160 mins

value added time as a percentage/ratio:

(value added time / total lead time ) * 100

= (30 / 160) * 100 = 18.8%

The Constitution sets forth specific powers that can be exercised by the national government and provides that t national govern

Elza [17]

Answer:

B. The States

Explanation:

According to the Constitution of the United States, the national government as well as the state government have powers. There is a need however, to describe the difference between express and implied powers.

Express powers are specifically mentioned in the constitution while implied powers are powers the body of government will have as a result of its interference and connection to the express power.

Therefore, since the national government supersedes the state governments, any power that is connected to the express power constitutionally given to the federal government is referred to its implied power and as such the state is expected to also respect such.

However, any power that is not express or implied to be the power of the national government according to the Tenth Amendment is expressly reserved to the States
