Answer:

E. It assumes that sales are determined solely by advertising and promotion.

Explanation:

The marginal-analysis model assesses the incremental benefits of an activity compared to the additional costs incurred by that same activity.  It is a decision-making tool to help maximize potential profits or benefits.

Sales are not determined solely by advertising and promotion.  There are many other factors, including price, demand and supply, the elasticity of the good, the nature of the good, among other factors.  The sales of goods considered to be necessities are not affected much by advertising and promotion, unlike luxury goods, for example.

lianna [129]

Answer:

BMI = 31.18 kg/m²

According to BMI, this patient is diagnosed as Obese.

Explanation:

BMI known as body mass index is taken from a person height and weight. BMI is a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters. BMI is usually expressed in kg/m².

Mathematically ,

BMI = weight(kg)/height(m²)

we have to convert the weight and the height to the required units.

converting pounds to kg

2.2 pounds = 1 kilogram

210 pounds = ?

cross multiply

210/2.2 = 95.50 kilograms

converting foot to inches and to meter.

1 foot = 12 inches

5 foot = ?

12 × 5 = 60 inches

60 inches + 9 inches = 69 inches

1 inches = 0.0254 meters

69 inches = ?

69 × 0.0254 = 1.7526  meters

using the formula

BMI = weight(kg)/height(m²)

BMI = 95.50/(1.75)²

BMI = 95.50/3.0625   kg/m²

BMI = 31.1836734694  kg/m²

BMI = 31.18 kg/m²

GaryK [48]

Answer:

The missing part of the question is found below:

Boots Plus has two product lines: Hiking boots and Fashion boots. Income statement data for the most recent year follow:

                                Total       Hiking        Fashion

Sales revenue       $480,000 $340,000 $140,000

Variable expenses 355,000 235,000 120,000

Contribution margin 125,000 105,000 20,000

Fixed expenses         76,000 38,000 38,000

Operating income (loss) $49,000 $67,000 $(18,000)

Answer

By discontinuing fashion line of business operating income would increase by $5,000

Explanation:

The impact of eliminating Fashion line is evident in the revised Income statement below:

                                                                 Hiking

Sales revenue                                         $340,000

Variable expenses                                  ($235,000)

Contribution margin                                105,000

Fixed expenses($76,000-$25,000)     ($51,000)

Operating income                                    $54,000

By discontinuing the fashion line of business,the operating income would increase by $5,000 ($54,000-$49,000) from $49,000 when operating the two lines of business to $54,000 when fashion is closed up.

The most appropriate action is to concentrate on the hiking line which might mean that Boots plus has a competitive edge in the Hiking business sector.
