kari74 [83]

Answer:

Option D The Clayton Act.

Explanation:

This legislation says that the unethical business practices are forbidden. This means if the Nitro dealer is asking for $500 extra for no reason then he is following an unethical business practice. So the Nitro Dealer is violating Clayton Antitrust act by fixing a price and then enforcing Sandra for purchase. So the violation is of provision of Clayton Act which prohibits price fixing.

A firm is planning to manufacture a new product. As the selling price is increased, the quantity that can be sold decreases. Num
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Profit Maximising Quantity = 775

Explanation:

Price P = 35 - 0.02Q

Total Revenue TR = Price x Quantity = P X Q

= (35 - 0.02Q)(Q)  = 35Q - 0.02Q^2

Total Cost TC = 8000 + 4Q

Profit = TR - TC

[35Q - 0.02Q^2] - [8000+4Q]  =  35Q - 0.02Q^2 - 8000 - 4Q

Profit Function = - 0.02Q^2 + 31Q - 8000

To find out profit maximising Quantity , we will differentiate Profit Function with respect to Q & equate it to 0.

dTR/ dQ = -0.04Q + 31 = 0

Q = 31/0.04 = 775

To verify whether 775 is profit maximising Q, we will do second derivative & check that it is negative.

d^2TR/ dQ^2 = -0.04 i.e < 0 (negative)

So 775 is profit maximising quantity

Suppose you manage the buyers at Best Bikes and you have been asked to help determine the requirements for a new vendor selectio
babymother [125]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

What I would do is to allow employees to select the vendors and products to sell. However, for this action to be successful, I would establish clear criteria to be followed by employees so they can select from that criteria what the can and can't offer.

I think a certain degree of autonomy is important for the employee to be better involved in the selling of products. It is like taking into consideration its skill and abilities and let them use them in the workplace. But as I wrote above, employees have to have some parameters in which they can decide the best option. Those parameters will be approved by top management.
