Market-leader Frito-Lay sells so many snacks to U.S. stores that it operates the country's seventh-largest private fleet of truc

ks and vans. It also uses its fleet to haul raw materials like fresh potatoes from farms to production facilities across the country. At the Frito-Lay plant in Casa Grande, Arizona, potatoes arrive by truck, vegetable oils arrive by rail, and corn arrives by rail. From the time they arrive in their raw state to the time they're processed and packaged as snacks, ready to be trucked to stores and warehouses, potatoes spend less than 36 hours at the plant. In all, the Casa Grande plant turns out 90 million pounds of snacks every year, including Sun Chips, Cheetos, Fritos, potato chips, and tortilla chips.
One of Frito-Lay's distribution strengths is a strategy it calls "direct store distribution." To ensure that snacks arrive fresh and in good condition, Frito-Lay has its truck drivers deliver snacks directly to individual stores on a regular basis. For specialty snacks geared toward smaller target markets, however, Frito-Lay is experimenting with distribution through wholesalers that sell to delicatessens and other small stores. Frito-Lay fills wholesalers' orders with stock stored in its regional warehouses.
Put yourself in the shoes of a marketer helping to plan for supply-chain and channel management at Frito-Lay. Assume that Frito-Lay is a channel captain. Does the following statement describe activities that Frito-Lay should undertake as channel captain?
Offer special pricing to retailers who make high-volume purchases during promotional periods.
A. True
B. False

Identify the guideline that should be followed by a supervisor to discourage unions.
Mekhanik [1.2K]

<span>A supervisor can take many steps when it comes to handling unions within the company. First that should be taken into consideration is, the supervisor’s communication to his/ her people. The people should know that the supervisor is always available when they need to talk about the policies of the company and why there is no necessity to have a third party. The employees should also have the knowledge on what is going on inside the business. They should always be informed about the standing of the company in the market.  Another is, there should also be an outlet where the employees can air out their concerns thus the supervisor should also provide these outlets.  Another concern that should be addressed properly is the fairness of the pay. This means that the principle of paying the employees must be put into mind; this is that they are paid according to the work that they do and second is let the employee know that they are paid fairly. Do this by market surveying the wages every year. Be honest to the employees by letting them know the economic standing of the company. They will surely understand the situation. The company must also remember the employees who stood by them during the hard times by giving them fair returns when the company is already in a good standing.  Next is, when you see that an employee is making good performance, companies must also do their responsibility by acknowledging the efforts and giving incentives for their good performance. </span>

Net realizable value will be

Net realizable value =  200 × $13

Net realizable value = $2600

Market adjustment  difference = $3200 - $2600

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

c. The medical center will prevail based upon the written contract

Explanation:

Since they later signed a written contract where it is stated in paper and has their signature that the medical center could not assure nor take any responsibilities for the birth of a kid without any medical, mental or physical defects the medical center has the upperhand on the court, as well as they did in Scalisi et al. v. New York University Medical Center that promised a perfect designed baby, the Scalsi decided for invitro fertilization because of the wife´s family medical history and tendency to autism, and they ended up with a baby with autism, so they sue the New York University Medical center, but the court sided with the NYUMC because of the written contract where it stated that they couldn´t assure the baby to be born without any medica, mental or physical defects.
