What are the elements of Attribution Theory ?

1 answer:

7 0

1. Internal Attribution: The process of assigning the cause of behaviour to some internal characteristic, rather than to outside forces. When we explain the behavior of others we look for enduring internal attributions, such as personality traits. For example, we attribute the behavior of a person to their personality, motives or beliefs.

2. External Attribution: The process of assigning the cause of behaviour to some situation or event outside a person's control rather than to some internal characteristic. When we try to explain our own behavior we tend to make external attributions, such as situational or environment features.

Jacoby Company received an offer from an exporter for 26,200 units of product at $18 per unit. The acceptance of the offer will

Leokris [45]

Answer:

The change in revenue (differential revenue from the acceptance of the offer) will be $ 471600

Explanation:

The revenue represents the total sales of the product, regardless of the costs, then If the company produced initially Q units the initial revenue will be

Initial Revenue=total sales= P₁*Q₁

- Since the offer does not alter the domestic sales prices P₁ , the price P₁ remains constant.

- Since the sales does not affect normal production , the quantity sold to the domestic market Q₁ is also not affected ( i don't need to resign units to the domestic market to sell to the exporter)

then

New revenue= Revenue from the exporter + Revenue from the domestic market = Revenue from the exporter + Initial revenue

where Revenue from the exporter=P₂*Q₂ , P₂= price sold to the exporter and Q₂= units sold to the exporter

therefore the change in revenue will be

Change in Revenue= New revenue - Initial Revenue = Revenue from the exporter

Change in Revenue=P₂*Q₂=$18 /unit* 26200 unit = $ 471600

Note:

The profit represents the revenue, taking into account the costs. Then the change the initial profit will be

initial profit = P₁*Q₁ - (CF+CV*Q₁)

the New profit

New profit = P₂*Q₂+ P₁*Q₁ - [CF+CV*(Q₂+Q₁)]

and the change in profit

change in profit= New profit - initial profit = P₂*Q₂+ P₁*Q₁ - [CF+CV*(Q₂+Q₁)] -[P₁*Q₁ - (CF+CV*Q₁)]= P₂*Q₂ - CV*Q₂ = (P₂- CV)*Q₂ = ($18 /unit- $12 /unit)* 26200 unit = $ 156000

Down Under Products, Ltd., of Australia has budgeted sales of its popular boomerang for the next four months as follows:

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales in Units

April 70,000

May 85,000

June 110,000

July 90,000

Desired ending inventory= 15% of the following month’s sales.

The inventory at the end of March was 10,500 units.

To calculate the production required for each month, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

April:

Sales= 70,000

Desired ending inventory= 85,000*0.15= 12,750

Beginning inventory= (10,500)

Total production= 72,250

May:

Sales= 85,000

Desired ending inventory= 110,000*0.15= 16,500

Beginning inventory= (12,750)

Total production= 88,750

June:

Sales= 110,000

Desired ending inventory= 90,000*0.15= 13,500

Beginning inventory= (16,500)

Total production= 107,000

Total quarter= 268,000
