Answer:

<u>Predatory Pricing</u>

Explanation:

As the word "predator" conveys i.e animals who live by preying on other animals, predatory pricing refers to an act of pricing goods by a seller at substantially lower rate than the competitors so as to assume control of the whole market and drive out the competing firms.

Predatory pricing is illegal as it goes against the concept of healthy competition within sellers and competitive markets. A healthy competition is necessary in the market to ensure buyers get quality products and to keep monopoly in check.

In the given case, a jeweler offers it's product i.e diamond earrings at substantially lower price than that of competitors with an aim to drive out competitors and become the market leader. This is a case of Predatory Pricing.

Sales price (per unit) $137

Manufacturing costs:

Fixed overhead (for the month) 15,400

Direct labor (per unit) 8

Direct materials (per unit) 34

Variable overhead (per unit) 24

Marketing and administrative costs:

Fixed costs (for the month) 25,200

Variable costs (per unit) 5

b) Variable Manufacturing cost per unit:

Direct labor (per unit)               8

Direct materials (per unit)      34

Variable overhead (per unit) 24

Total variable cost per unit $66

c) Full Manufacturing cost per unit:

Variable cost ($66 x 1,400) =   $92,400

Fixed overhead (for the month) 15,400

Total manufacturing cost =    $107,800

$107,800/ 1,400 = $77

d) Variable cost per unit:

Direct labor (per unit)                8

Direct materials (per unit)       34

Variable costs (per unit)           5

Total variable costs per unit $71

e) Full absorption cost per unit:

Total variable costs  ($71 * 1,400) = $99,400

Total fixed costs: manufacturing        15,400

The practice of buying goods and services now and paying for them later is termed:______
sesenic [268]

The practice of buying goods and services now and paying for them later is termed is<u> Bartering</u>.

A barter is a transaction in which two or more parties exchange products or services without exchanging cash or other forms of payment like credit cards.

In its simplest form, bartering entails the exchange of one party's good or service for another party's good or service.

A carpenter who constructs a fence for a farmer is a straightforward illustration of a barter transaction.

The farmer might compensate the carpenter with $1,000 worth of crops or groceries rather than paying the builder $1,000 in cash for labor and supplies.

A parachutist jumps out of an airplane and accelerates with gravity to a maximum velocity of 58.8 m/s in 6.00 seconds. She then
arlik [135]

Answer:

From what height did the parachutist jump?

914 m

Explanation:

v = 58.8 m/s

u = 0 m/s

a = 9.81 m/s^2

t = 6.00 s

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

58.8^2 = 0 + 19.62s

s = 3457.44/19.62 = 176.22m

Upon decelerating after opening parachute;

v = 10 m/s

u = 58.8 m/s

t = 4.00

deceleration =( 58.8 - 10)/4.00 = 12.2 m/s^2

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

100 = 58.8^2 - 24.4s

3357.44/24.4 = s

s = 137.6s

Upon decending at constant velocity

distance = time*velocity = 10.0*60 = 600 m

Initial height = 600 + 137.6 + 176.22 = 913.82 m = 914 m
